Wood for more authenticity

Wood for more authenticity

Today, at a time when everyone is focused on ecological efforts, plastic is not really popular. Undeniably, PVC is less popular, even if it remains a very effective material for doors and windows in terms of thermal insulation. However, PVC is not really aesthetic and loses the charm of a house with character in a simple installation. Are your windows not in keeping with the materials of your exterior and your terrace? Embrace wood again!

The return of wooden windows

Wood remains the most aesthetic primary material for doors and windows. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to maintain and deteriorates very quickly. Moreover, it does not guarantee excellent insulation. This is why aluminum-wood windows are an excellent alternative. The aluminum protects the exterior face and ensures the insulation of the house. And the wood brings the aesthetic and the cozy aspect. It is very pleasant to the touch and allows to have "standard carpentry" colored windows.

Wood is popular with project owners

Wooden structures are gaining ground. They are more and more popular and are an integral part of the projects of the greatest designers. We knew this trend in the Scandinavian countries. It is now spreading rapidly in Western Europe and particularly in France.

Eco-loan at zero rate for our thermal investments

Faced with this fashion for renewal and environmental concerns, the French government has offered a zero-rate eco-loan since the Grenelle de l´Environnement in 2009. This loan makes it possible to finance thermal renovations which promote energy savings. The ceiling is €30,000 and the loan is repayable over a period of 3 to 15 years. It is therefore time to carry out your modernization work if you need it. This is an exceptional boost offered by the State for our investments in favor of ecology.

One thing is certain, it is time to preserve the environment!
