Are sash windows from Poland of good quality?

Polish sliding sash windows manufacturers use state-of-the-art methods of timber impregnation and varnishing, ensuring excellent protection and beautiful appearance of the wooden frames for many, many years. Double-glazed units filled with argon gas and 2 gaskets with extended lifetime provide good acoustic insulation and thermal comfort in the rooms. The use of a swisspacer increases its excellent thermal properties even further by eliminating thermal bridge. Strong profile structures made of three-layer glued laminated timber, a 156 mm deep window frame and modern fittings and accessories – all this makes modern sash windows functional, warm and safe.

Apart from durability, functionality and beautiful aesthetics, price is also important, especially considering the fact that when renovating or building a house or a flat you are probably looking for savings wherever possible. As the most expensive option, timber windows are also where the greatest saving potential is when you consider importing.
It is worth keeping in mind that the price of each window, not just the sash window, depends on many factors including size, type of components used for the construction, their parameters, additions, colour – and it is determined individually for each project. When choosing your windows don’t only look at the final price. Always check and compare the specification of the windows to avoid unnecessary costs on maintenance or higher heating bills in the long run.

Even if we factor in shipping costs in the price of Polish windows and doors, the price is highly attractive to residents of the UK, France, Germany, and Italy.
