Here at Renewal by Andersen® of Northwest Ohio, we have spent decades perfecting window replacement. Over the years, we have learned that an effective installation starts with the products we provide.
This is why we only use the best possible materials for our window frames and glass. This includes using Fibrex®. But, what exactly makes it so special?
What Is Fibrex®?
Fibrex is an Andersen®-exclusive material that combines the best qualities of vinyl and wood, and it is low maintenance and designed for long-term use. It can withstand extreme weather and temperatures, and blend with different styles and colors. It is also available in different windows styles.
Of What Is It Made?
The composition of Fibrex is made of clean, reclaimed wood fiber. This type of material means we can reground and reuse it. This distinction has earned our windows a certified Green Seal®. This means that it is more energy-efficient and environmentally safer than other standard materials.
Fibrex combines the best qualities of both vinyl and wood products. It has the strength and stability of wood that can help make sashes and frames narrower. It also has the low-maintenance quality that makes vinyl easy to use. Both advantages are found in Fibrex, but the disadvantages are not. This means it is not susceptible to rot and heat damage. It also has strong weatherstripping seals that can help it withstand the weather.
How Does It Handle Weather?
In terms of weather and temperature conditions, Fibrex has superior insulating properties. Whereas other materials would conduct and expand from heat or contract from cold, our windows have stood the test of time. It works with our High Performance™ Low-E4® Performance glass to improve the energy efficiency of homes like yours. We even tested some of our clients’ 20-year old replacement windows and found them in virtually the same state as when they were first installed.
