VEKA UPVC WINDOWS AND DOORS LEADING<br />

THE WAY ON THE EASTERN SEABOARD<br />

Although it may only be more subliminal than<br />

obvious, a house or condo which sports the<br />

best quality of uPVC window frames and glass<br />

is generally the kind of residence which is immediately<br />

attractive to outsiders and reveals a<br />

measure of that elusive quality called ‘class’.<br />

Additionally, a house or condo fitted out in such<br />

a way is usually made more valuable as a<br />

saleable commodity.<br />

Naturally, there are a number of companies<br />

operating within the uPVC space in Pattaya,<br />

but one of them is a definite standout when it<br />

comes to longevity within this specialist space,<br />

and that is the German-run VEKA uPVC<br />

Windows & Doors.<br />

For many long-time residents and regular<br />

visitors the VEKA company might be more<br />

familiar under its previous incarnation as ARC<br />

Windows & Doors. Indeed, the VEKA website<br />

is still www.arc-windows-doors.com, reflecting<br />

a desire to maintain a link with the past while<br />

moving forward into a brighter future.<br />

The German VEKA Group has been around<br />

since 1969, established in Sendenhorst, Germany,<br />

and claims to be the world-wide leader<br />

in uPVC profiles.<br />

The Thai-based arm of the company offers<br />

custom-made windows and doors in any style<br />

and configuration to match the needs of customers.<br />

For example, in high buildings where strong<br />

winds at times can be a problem, it’s important<br />

to install windows that will not bend, but maintain<br />

their structural integrity.<br />

Leaking windows under heavy rains are also<br />

a perennial problem that should be easily addressed<br />

with properly-fitted uPVC windows and<br />

doors.<br />

In a succinct Power Point presentation, the<br />

operators of VEKA put forward a strong case<br />

for the installation of their product in any<br />

house or condo. The two key factors for installing<br />

uPVC windows and doors are excellent<br />

thermal insulation (surely a huge factor<br />

in this tropical climate) and excellent acoustic<br />

insulation. As well, the products offer security<br />

and strength and are virtually maintenance<br />

free. The only real downside is the initial cost<br />

factor. After all, quality does come at a price,<br />

but if the end result is a long-term reduction<br />

in electricity costs, for example, then the initial<br />

outlay is well worth it.<br />

If your house or condo is exposed to direct<br />

sunlight the chances are you’ll want to install<br />

double glazing, simply to offset the harsh heat,<br />

as well as outside noise. The uPVC frames<br />

manufactured by VEKA are fitted with a galvanised<br />

steel reinforcement to provide mechanical<br />

stability.<br />

As the company notes, ‘windows and doors<br />

are very special architectural elements…They<br />

must function reliably, whilst looking good<br />

both from the inside as well as the outside.’<br />

‘A perfect window is made of high quality<br />

glazing, a robust frame and casing, strong<br />

hinges and locks, and a well-designed handle.’<br />

VEKA ticks all the boxes when it comes<br />

to these requirements.<br />
