Description
Modus is a fully integrated PVC-U window and door system, capable of producing eight different product types from a single system.
Features and benefits:
- Modus tilt and turn windows offer a new stepped sash design, which goes one step further than Modus casement windows by creating a 75 mm front-to-back dimension, seven-chamber profile for maximum thermal performance, utilizing dual material extrusion technology (DMET).
- DMET precisely directs 50% virgin and 50% post-consumer recycled PVC-U into the profile simultaneously, with post-consumer material used only in the core of the profile, so finish quality and colour fastness is uncompromised.
- No steel or aluminum reinforcements are required and an optional third brush pile seal completes the high specification.
