Providing a Light-Weight, High-Strength and Cost-Effective Alternative to Traditional Steel Window and Door Systems

Alitherm Heritage profiles utilise Smart’s innovative polyamide thermal break technology which creates a barrier between the cold air outside and the warm air inside.

Because aluminium does not rust or rot, window frames provide great longevity and can last indefinitely. This also means that the aluminium windows have the longest lifespan of any window framing material.

Modern aluminium windows are thermally-broken using polyamide, an excellent insulator which helps to insulate windows against heat loss. For a typical terraced house, this would provide a saving of around £95 each year in fuel costs.

Maintenance for aluminium systems is simple and straightforward, with a routine 'wipe-clean’ all that is required to keep the products looking their best. No need to re-paint or re-varnish, aluminium windows and doors will never fade, deteriorate or rust.

Alitherm Heritage Windows

Alitherm Heritage provides the ideal solution for heritage applications such as listed building renovations and large scale replica-refurbishment projects where planning constraints are to be considered. The Alitherm Heritage window is designed to be built as a series of horizontal modules which can be stacked using horizontal couplers to form a multi-part window featuring a specially design drip bar between modules.

These can be applied to fixed windows, Single or double sash, side hung open out casements, top hung open out casements, tilt & turn windows and pivot windows. Its features include the polyamide thermal break which provides enhanced thermal performance and it is designed as a direct replacement for steel windows. The finish is a single or dual colour, marine quality polyester powder coat as standard.
