    Saving the Planet with Our Windows

    A growing number of homeowners are going for green options due to the health benefits these products offer. For this, many companies are manufacturing products that can help preserve the environment.


    Saving the Planet with Our Windows

    Renewal by Andersen® of New Jersey-New York Metro offers eco-friendly windows on Staten Island and discusses what makes them a healthy choice for your home.

    Fibrex®

    Each of our casement windows in Staten Island come with a patented frame composite called Fibrex. This is made of reclaimed wood fibers from Andersen® Corporation and polyvinyl chloride polymer. It has the classic beauty of wood and twice the strength of vinyl, making it the ideal alternative to wood, aluminum, and vinyl, reducing the need to use other resources.

    Its Environmental Benefits

    Our Fibrex frame offers insulating and low-maintenance benefits. It can help reduce heat buildup in your home, keeping you from overworking your HVAC units, leading to more energy savings. Furthermore, less use of your air-conditioning system also helps reduce carbon footprint, which can endanger your health. Aside from this, it will not rot, warp, or blister, reducing your maintenance costs.

    The Process behind Our Eco-Friendly Frames

    We start making our windows by gathering unused wood materials from Andersen® windows. We mix 40% of reclaimed wood fiber with 60% propriety polymer, allowing us to eliminate their weaknesses. We then heat the wood fibers and polymer, creating a new compound that we pressurize.

    This coats and fills every cell of the material, causing them to align and bind. This gives them moisture-resistance and the strength and rigidity of wood. The resulting mixture then goes through an extruder to mold it into different shapes and colors.

    With this manufacturing process, we are able to save resources, which in turn help preserve the environment. Additionally, our windows come with High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass to help keep your home cozy. This will keep you from relying too much on your heating and cooling system, as this can lead to an increase in carbon footprint. You can expect our picture windows in Staten Island, NJ, to have all these eco-friendly qualities.

    Help preserve the environment with Renewal by Andersen of New Jersey-New York Metro eco-friendly windows. Call us today at (866) 609-5033 for your window replacement needs.
