Simple solution

Senior Architectural Systems Pure window system can achieve U-values as low as 0.71W/m²K when calculated as a commercial CEN Standard window.

Not only does this exceed current regulations but also comfortably meets the expected U-value target of 0.8W/m²k, which is likely to come into effect in mid-2022 following publication of the new guidance towards the end of this year, the company said.

The Pure system offers ‘cradle to cradle’ recyclability, with even the PUR thermal barrier able to be reused with no requirement for landfill. The environmental credentials of the system have led to it being specified across various sectors, including on a large number of educational buildings where the need to reduce carbon calculations and improve efficiency is paramount.

The slim aluminium frame of Senior’s Pure window system also makes it suitable for use in residential homes and to meet the new requirements of the pending Future Homes Standard. Set to be introduced in 2025, the new Future Homes Standard will require all newbuild homes to embrace low carbon heating and achieve high levels of energy efficiency.

Senior’s sales director James Keeling-Heane said: “It was always our aim to create a future-proof range of fenestration products to help minimise the impact of large regulatory changes, and we’re confident that our Pure aluminium window system will continue to not only meet, but exceed expectations.”
