Contemporary Window Systems - an application adding value

As the saying goes, " Eyes are the mirror to one's face. It reflects the happenings of the mind", so does a window to your home.

Windows are often underrated for the importance they play in our homes. Traditionally it was looked upon as just an opening to allow access to sunlight and air within four walls. But today a window is measured against tough standards to meet the requirements of a superior building construction for its functional, aesthetic and environmental impact.

Traditionally, material used for construction of windows comprised of timber and aluminium. But today with technological advancements, a material dominating the western construction & building industry is UPVC - unplasticized poly vinyl chloride.

To bring the global advantage to the Indian consumer, DSCL in technical collaboration with HW plastics, UK has launched Fenesta, a contemporary range of UPVC (unplasticized poly vinyl chloride) windows & doors that promise consistent quality production, elegant designs, complete technical support and are backed by an unprecedented warranty.

Technology in collaboration with HW Plastics, UK

HW Plastics is the pioneer and market leader in UK for UPVC doors and window systems. It is also a part of £650 million Heywood Williams Group and has its presence in UK, Europe and parts of Asia.

The collaboration covers product development, extrusion, fabrication & supply chain management. This partnership brings together the DSCL's extensive knowledge in PVC resin and application - specific compounds and HW Plastics strength as one the leading window manufacturers.

Advanced Window Systems

Fenesta window systems are engineered to suit various climates ranging from the cold of Scandinavia to the deserts of Arizona.

UPVC window systems rate better than traditional material used for windows and doors due to the inherent strengths of the material (UPVC) - High impact resistance, termite resistance, strength, durability, non-corrosive & fire retardant. The engineered design incorporated in the UPVC fenestrations further enhances the inherent strengths. UPVC profiles are multi chambered and have low thermal conductivity. Based on a design that integrates the two, these energy efficient windows* promises excellent thermal and sound insulation that is further enhanced with a double-glazing option.

The multi chamber also allows for steel reinforcement to run the entire profile length giving it additional strength. Specially designed for Indian conditions it is UV stabilized, weather enduring, requires low maintenance and does not crack or warp.

Contemporary Designs

With modularity and flexibility as basic principles of Fenesta Window System, one gets freedom to design the best.

Offered in two styles - Casement (openable) and Horizontal Sliding System, unlimited designs are possible from the traditional 'Double hung openable window system' to the more contemporary 'Patio Sliding Door'. One can also go for the space optimising '2 / 3 Track Sling window' or the stylish 'Awning' (top hung window). To enhance the beauty of the window one could add the arch. Colour selection is never a problem with the hosts of options available and for the traditional wood finish - light oak is available.

End to End Service

Fenesta is a complete system right from extrusion to installation. The focus is on project management - Design support, offsite fabrication, firm commitments on deliveries and a trained installation team, to ensure consistent quality and better understanding of the clients needs.

Infrastructure

The strategic intent of the company is to provide high quality product and turnkey solution for the consumer.

An extrusion plant at Kota (Rajasthan) has been set up to confer the strengths of a backward integrated process. It spans over 100,000 Sft with a daily production capacity of over 7.2 MT. It is backed by 24 hours supply of captive power and has tooling from Griener, Italy.

To meet local demands Fabrication units have been set up at Bhiwadi, Rajasthan; Turbe, Mumbai; Bommasundra, Bangalore. Each has a capacity to manufacture 2000 windows per month.

Quality Control

Quality Control is ensured through stringent norms across processes, from procurement to packing. A dedicated team has been set up to constantly strive for new benchmarks in quality products and processes.

To ensure highest standards the profile and window manufacturing is done as per regulations outlined in the British Standards - BS 7412 and BS 7413. They are manufactured using super-precision tooling from Greiner, Austria and state-of-the-art fabrication machinery from LGF, Italy & GTI, UK, to render superb finish across all styles.

Manpower is extensively trained at UK

The Endeavour

In short span of less than 18 months, Fenesta caters to 4 regions with the sales office at - National Capital Region, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune. In the near future Hyderabad & Chennai will open up with plans for fabrication units at each location.

A service driven organization, Fenesta Building Systems endeavours to provide customized solutions, continuous innovations and commitment to the consumer.

Energy Efficient Windows

Windows bring light, warmth, and beauty into buildings and give a feeling of openness and space to living areas. They can also be major sources of heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer.

When air leaks around windows, energy is wasted. Energy is also transferred through the centers, edges, and frames of windows. Eliminating or reducing these paths of heat flow can greatly improve the energy efficiency of windows and, ultimately, of home.

Standard single-pane glass has very little insulating value. It provides only a thin barrier to the outside and can account for considerable heat loss and gain. Increasing the number of glass panes in the unit can greatly improve thermal insulation, because multiple layers of glass increase the window's ability to resist heat flow. A properly selected and installed window can help minimize a home's heating, cooling, and lighting costs.
