Sustainability with TECHNAL

A MORE THOUGHTFUL WAY TO IMPROVE YOUR HOME

At TECHNAL UK, sustainability isn't an add-on - it's built into everything we do.

We believe great design should do more than look beautiful. It should help you create a home that feels brighter, warmer, and more connected, while reducing its impact on the environment.

Whether you're renovating a Victorian townhouse, extending a family home or building new, our aluminium windows, doors and sliding doors are designed to offer the perfect balance of refined aesthetics, long-term performance and low-carbon innovation.

A holistic approach to sustainable living

Creating a more sustainable home starts long before your windows and doors are installed. It begins with the choices we make - at every stage.

At TECHNAL, we take a whole-lifecycle approach, considering how our products are sourced, made, used and recycled.

That means:

• Using Hydro CIRCAL® low-carbon aluminium, made from recycled, end-of-life materials

• Designing products that last for decades with minimal maintenance

• Reducing waste and energy use throughout production

• Supporting circular design, where materials can be reused again and again

• Providing transparent environmental data, so you can make informed choices

For you, it means investing in windows and doors that don't just look exceptional - but genuinely contribute to a future-ready home.

ACTING NOW TO REDUCE OUR CARBON FOOTPRINT

We're committed to building homes that feel right today while protecting tomorrow. That's why TECHNAL has set a clear ambition:

to halve our CO² footprint by 2030 (compared to 2018 levels)

And we're already making measurable progress.

Here's what that means for your home:

Smarter material choices

Aluminium is infinitely recyclable, making it a natural choice for circular design.

We use recycled, end-of-life aluminium to significantly reduce carbon impact - cutting emissions linked to raw material sourcing by 50%, without any additional cost.

You get beautifully crafted windows and doors made from responsibly sourced, low-carbon aluminium, without compromising on strength or style.

Lower-carbon components

Even the smallest details matter.

By using recycled materials in key components such as thermal breaks, we've reduced associated emissions by up to 40%.

You benefit from improved thermal performance with a lower environmental footprint.

Cleaner, more efficient production

We continue to optimise how our systems are manufactured - reducing energy use and increasing reliance on cleaner energy sources.

Since 2018, we've reduced production emissions by 15% per tonne processed.

You get products created with care, using more responsible manufacturing methods.

Reduced impact through transport and packaging

We've rethought how products are delivered - from more efficient logistics to significantly improved packaging.

• Packaging footprint reduced by up to 8 times

• Transport-related emissions reduced by 50%

We provide you with a more efficient, lower-impact journey from factory to your home.

A culture of responsibility

Sustainability also comes from how we work every day.

Through smarter working practices, reduced waste and greater awareness, we continue to lower our environmental impact across our operations.

We provide you with the confidence that your home improvement supports a wider, meaningful change.
