  Durability and low maintenance of FRP doors and windows

  
  

Composite doors & windows have good resistance to acids, salts, or any alkali substances. They are even resistant to heat and cold. In short, they can withstand any harsh environmental conditions. Their other strong properties like stiffness, sealing, electrical insulation, energy efficiency, and low weight make them preferable options to any other door and window. FRP doors and windows do not degrade easily unlike wood or plastic doors. Their quality, color, and property remain the same for an average of 60 years. Their average life span is more due to the influence of all the properties which the FRP composite has. Due to these properties, they have low running cost. Their requirement for maintenance is very low which saves the cost and makes them more preferred in hospitals, food industry, pharmaceuticals, and so on. For instance, Dortek (Ireland) has developed and installed FRP hygienic doors at two art Spire hospitals. Such developments are encouraging the use of composite doors & windows in various applications, thus driving the market growth.  

Further, The market is expected to expand due to advantages such as enhanced features and properties over classic windows and doors. Industry expansion is expected to be fueled by an increase in construction and industrialization activity around the world.
