Aluminium Windows
The SUNFLEX UK Slim And Flush (SAF) window system combines modern styling with advanced performance and stylish finishing touches.
The ultra-slim frames and premium quality of the SAF windows make them ideally suited for a wide range of projects, whether you are replacing existing windows, carrying out an extension or renovation or building a completely new home.
Every SAF window is custom-made by SUNFLEX UK fabricators to your exact requirements and can be designed to incorporate top-hung, side-hung or tilt and turn sashes alongside fixed frames. The versatility of the system means it can also be utilised for large picture windows, angled gable glazing, fixed over lights and even ultra-stylish frameless glass-to-glass corners.
The slender aluminium profile of the SAF window is square-edged on both the inside and outside of the frame, finishing flush with the outer-frame to provide the much sought-after contemporary look.

KEY FEATURE 3
Advanced thermal performance
Thanks to its advanced design the SAF window is able to combine its contemporary looks with Building Regulations Part L compliant thermal efficiency and advanced weather
performance standards.
Between the internal and external aluminium frames a large polyamide thermal break limits the heat loss – helping keep heat inside the room to keep your heating bills down and making the room feel warmer. With double glazing the SAF window is capable of achieving a U-value from just 1.4W/m2K whilst with triple glazing the window can achieve highly impressive performance with U-values from just 1.0/Wm2K†.
†The overall U-value achievable by the system is dependent on glass specification.

The windows hold the BSI Kitemark™ certificate and the latest in independent PAS 24:2022 security testing alongside the prestigious Secured by Design™ award, ensuring the system can be incorporated into the design of a wide range of projects, from replacement windows and period property renovations, to stylish inner-city extensions and ultra-modern new homes*.
*To meet the requirements of Building Regulations Document Q windows may need to be installed with Class P1a glass (usually laminated glass), depending on the location of the window within the new-build house.

Why choose aluminium windows?
Aluminium is the perfect material for manufacturing windows. It is lightweight and yet considerably stronger that other window materials enabling us to create windows with slimmer frames and for larger openings, with narrower frames allowing for larger panes of glasses, maximising the amount of light you let in.
Unlike previous generations of aluminium windows, modern systems are thermally broken which prevents cold-bridging and ensures the systems are capable of advanced thermal performance, with aluminium also offering maintenance-free and recyclable solution, reducing the impact on the environment.
