GENEO The New Dimension in Energy Efficient Window Systems

8^th July 2014

The GENEO window system is manufactured using the high-tech RAU-FIPRO material resulting in windows with a reduction in energy losses of up to 76% (*Reduction in the energy loss from windows when replacing old wooden/plastic windows from the 1980's (Uf= 1.9, Ug= 3.0) with windows made from GENEO profiles (Uf= 0.91, Ug= 0.5, window size 123 x 148 cm).
