Partnering for Performance: How Project Windows & Doors Helps JG King Homes Deliver 8 Star Living

As of 13 October 2025, JG King Homes has raised the benchmark for sustainable building in Victoria — introducing 8 star energy efficiency as the new standard across all home designs. This first-to-market move means families can now enjoy smarter, more comfortable homes that use up to 30% less energy than 7 star homes, all at no extra cost.


At Project Windows & Doors, we’re proud to play a key role in helping JG King Homes achieve this industry-leading milestone through our high-performance uPVC window and door systems.


The Power Behind 8 Star Efficiency

Behind every 8 star home is a combination of smart design, advanced materials, and precise construction. For JG King Homes, one of the most important elements is the upgrade from standard aluminum windows to high-performance uPVC systems supplied locally by our team at Project Windows & Doors.


Unlike traditional aluminum frames, which conduct heat and cold easily, our uPVC frames are naturally insulating, helping maintain consistent indoor temperatures throughout the year. Combined with low-E, double or triple glazing, they drastically reduce heat transfer and enhance energy efficiency without sacrificing style or natural light.


Why uPVC Windows and Doors Make the Difference

Energy Efficiency & Comfort

  • Outstanding thermal insulation: uPVC frames with low-E glazing minimise heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer.
  • Double and triple glazing options: Tailored to meet varying climate zones and comfort preferences.
  • Energy savings: Contribute to homes that use up to 30% less energy than 7 star designs.

Acoustic Performance

  • Peaceful living: Noise reduction of up to 45dB, creating quieter, more comfortable homes — perfect for urban environments or high-traffic areas.

Natural Light & Wellbeing

  • Brighter spaces, healthier living: Generous glazing allows natural light to support circadian rhythm, improve mood, and enhance productivity.
  • Connection to nature: Expansive windows promote a sense of indoor-outdoor harmony, helping homeowners feel more relaxed and connected to their surroundings.

Built for Australian Conditions

  • Bushfire rated to BAL 40: Providing strong protection in bushfire-prone regions.
  • Wind resistant up to N4 rating: Tested and certified for performance across Victoria’s diverse landscapes.

Quality & Innovation

  • Locally manufactured in Ballarat: Supporting local jobs and ensuring strict quality control.
  • Advanced Italian Graf machinery: Guarantees precision engineering and consistency.
  • Perfect Weld Technology: Delivers seamless joins, superior strength, and sleek aesthetics.

Style Without Compromise

  • Flexible design options: Maximise efficiency without limiting design, size, or natural light.
  • Modern, versatile look: Complements any JG King home design — proving sustainability and style can go hand in hand.


Local Collaboration for a Sustainable Future

Both Project Windows & Doors and JG King Homes share a commitment to innovation, quality, and sustainability. Our partnership demonstrates how local manufacturing and advanced building technology can come together to deliver real benefits for Australian families. More comfort, lower energy bills, and homes ready for the future.


By integrating our uPVC window and door systems into every new JG King home, we’re helping push the boundaries of energy-efficient living and proudly contributing to a cleaner, greener Victoria.
