Selecting this family for a Canadian project
For uPVC, confirm reinforcement, finish and opening-size limits together with the glass and required performance documents. Provider catalogue figures describe particular configurations. Confirm the whole-unit result, rating method and available documents for your sizes with your local designer and building official.
U-factor figures use imperial Btu/(h ft2 F) unless another unit is stated; metric values use W/(m2 K). Uf describes the frame, Ug the glass, and Uw the whole window. SHGC and ER are dimensionless. Converting units does not establish certification or Canadian code acceptance.
Canadian orders use DAP to the agreed named place, with the Canadian buyer as importer of record. Import charges, unloading and local installation need their own confirmed scope. Site access and remote delivery require individual review.
Overview
What makes the Kontur Alu
stand out.
Kontur Alu combines a PVC profile with an exterior aluminum cover. It is a useful direction when the facade calls for crisp metal detailing and you want to explore a PVC-based window construction. I will compare the finished assembly and available finishes for your actual openings.
Compare materials in my aluminum and PVC guide.
Key Highlights
- Distinct aluminum exterior detailing.
- Multi-chamber PVC core.
- Exterior colors coordinated with the architecture.
Ideal For
Contemporary homes where exterior appearance is a priority and the interior does not call for natural timber.
Consider an Alternative When
Cladding does not turn the whole window into an aluminum system. Compare the finished specification, available sizes and quote for your actual openings.

From this system to your opening schedule
Review the opening type, dimensions, glazing, finish and installation interface together. Provider references describe a system family; the documents for your project need to match the proposed assembly and local requirements.
