Looking after our planet

Designed with Recycling in Mind

As the uPVC window sector rapidly expands in Australia, we are committed to ensuring and growing the opportunities to recycle our products in responsible ways. Starting in 2022 we are working with our Australian fabricators and companies in our industry to reduce waste throughout the fabrication process and ensure waste uPVC, such as material offcuts in the fabrication process are gathered and recycled for use in new products where ever possible. After many decades of use, end of life windows can be recycled.

Certified Quality

What makes us innovative? Strong power for innovation, superior quality, plus outstanding energy efficiency and sustainability both for our products and our production systems. All of these claims have been substantiated with various certificates, awards and seals of approval. See for yourself.

PVC Stewardship Program

The PVC Stewardship Program, administered by the Vinyl Council of Australia, is an on-going, long-term, voluntary undertaking by the Australian PVC industry to recognise, and progressively address, all relevant environmental, health and safety issues along the PVC product life cycle within responsible and deliverable timeframes.
As a Signatory to the program, aluplast supports the program and adheres to the following five key themes associated with the life cycle of PVC:
1. Best Practice Manufacturing
2. Safe and Sustainable Use of Additives
3. Energy and Greenhouse Gas Management
4. Resource Efficiency
5. Transparency and Engagement

Top Innovator

We have long been known as a leading innovator in the window industry. And rightly so, as our double TOP100 award shows!

RAL-Certified

Our window and door frame profiles are RAL certified and are subject to regular quality checks. RAL Quality Marks identify products and services that are manufactured or provided according to high, precisely specified quality criteria and monitored on a regular basis by independent test institutes (SKZ, Süddeutsches Kunststoff-Zentrum and IFT, Institut für Fenstertechnik). By this means, permanent serviceability of our windows and doors are guaranteed to make sure that you will enjoy them for many years to come.

CE Marking

The CE marking is a quality mark issued by the European Committee for Standardisation “CEN”. The CE standard determines product properties and performance classes for windows and doors of all materials for the European market. It states the product’s conformity with the applicable European standards and guidelines, removes trade barriers and thus simplifies pan-European trade. aluplast windows and doors meet the CE requirements and are monitored on a regular basis by the test institute IFT.

EnMS Certification

All the way back in 2009, aluplast got together with a number of other companies to form a pilot network with the aim of reducing energy consumption and, as a result, cutting greenhouse gas emissions. This commitment to added sustainability has paid off: aluplast and its successful energy management system have been certified in accordance with DIN/ISO 50001 since July 2013.

Furthermore, aluplast uses state-of-the-art production systems with the lowest energy consumption figures in the industry.
