Profile for windows Proplex: how to choose the right one, comparison with competitors

When choosing plastic windows, the buyer often looks at the price tag or the “brand recognition”. However, the first and second does not guarantee ease of use or durability.

Almost every PVC window profile It looks standard, so before buying it is important to study its technical specifications, information about the brand itself, reviews about the manufacturer. One of the first lines in the reliability ratings is Proplex products, which in many respects surpasses their competitors in European production.

Features and Benefits

The brand’s profiles are based on Austrian technology adapted specifically for the difficult climatic conditions of various regions of Russia, including the Far North. For each model, compositions of PVC composites are used, which are resistant to the following destructive effects:

• sudden changes in temperature;
• direct sunlight;
• high humidity;
• wind loads;
• mechanical stress.

The profile will not turn yellow in the southern regions, and in the north it does not deform under the influence of extreme subzero temperatures. Proplex offers solutions for both residential and industrial premises of standard and non-standard sizes. All types of profile are compatible with each other and meet the specified GOST standards, which gives their best compatibility. It is possible to obtain structures of unusual shape and size with a high degree of insulation and a long service life.

The brand has a wide product line, which differs from the more well-known brands of KBE or Salamander. The company produces profiles with a width of 58 to 127 millimeters with a number of cameras from two to six. Therefore, the buyer can choose the most economical option for a summer house or utility building, or a high-end solution for a residential building in any climatic conditions. Montblank or Veka, which position themselves as luxury solution providers, do not have 127 millimeter wide profiles. But such windows are recommended to be installed in regions with increased wind load, in buildings with panoramic glazing or on the upper floors of buildings with a height of over sixty meters.

Every structural element from Proplex profiles is thought out to the smallest detail. The shape of the glazing bead ensures the absence of gaps, the line of this element is adjacent to the frame without additional angles, which provides better thermal insulation, does not allow dirt and dust to accumulate in hard-to-reach places. The outer surfaces of the windows are semi-matt. It practically does not show mechanical damage, clearly visible on the gloss, and small scratches, and the texture does not accumulate dust particles and dirt. Therefore, profiles are suitable even for complex rooms, for example, for a kitchen in a residential building, a non-residential warehouse and even a production building.

Which profile to choose

It’s easy to navigate the Proplex product line. Each type is focused on specific operating conditions, but meets environmental safety standards, therefore it has the widest scope. Especially in demand:

• Outline two-chamber type;
• Optima with three cameras;
• Comfort in four-chamber execution;
• Premium for five cameras;
• Lux with extended profile.

Optima profile is one of the universal solutions both for residential buildings, apartments, and for offices, industrial buildings.The unique design allows you to make products of any shape and size, successfully fit the window into the interior due to bulk painting or lamination. The three-chamber system completely excludes freezing, condensation or the appearance of the so-called “cold bridges” near the reinforcing elements. A special system of gaps and reinforcing sections helps to compensate for small shifts in linear dimensions without deformation or damage to the window. Therefore, installation is possible in buildings of any type.

Outline profiles are suitable for glazing balconies, loggias, seasonal buildings, utility rooms, summer houses and summer cottages. The minimum load on the base of the window opening is provided by aluminum elements. Reinforcement of all joints and angles allows the profile to withstand the highest wind loads. You can install single-chamber, two-chamber double-glazed windows in the base, having received the necessary indicators of thermal insulation.

The Premium line is characterized by the design of the entire profile. The reinforcing layer is now separated by at least two air chambers, which completely eliminates heat leakage and improves energy efficiency. Grooves and tides facilitate installation, preventing the screws from “scrolling”, preventing damage to complex chamber structures. In such a profile, it is possible to install a frost-resistant or double-glazed window reinforced by mechanical indicators.

Proplex is one of the leaders in the domestic production of PVC profiles due to the successful combination of Austrian experience and its own unique developments. A wide range of profiles is an important advantage along with a favorable price. Products manufactured in accordance with modern requirements of GOST, environmental safety standards can be used both in residential premises and in commercial construction, in industrial facilities.
