Tech-enabled fenestration systems

This interaction delves into Encraft’s product offerings and how technology redefines its performance and efficiency.

Can you walk us through your product offerings for the Indian market?
We offer a comprehensive range of uPVC and aluminium systems designed specifically for the Indian market, combining innovation, durability, and modern aesthetics. Our product line includes uPVC windows and doors, which are soundproof, energy efficient, offer exceptional thermal insulation, and are ideal for residential and commercial spaces. Additionally, our aluminium systems, available in sleek patterns, offer high structural strength and ensure long-lasting performance. We cater to diverse architectural needs, from casement and sliding systems to tilt-and-turn and bi-fold options.

How are your fenestration systems designed to integrate features such as impact resistance, water tightness, and thermal insulation to withstand the challenges of extreme weather?
We use high-strength materials to manufacture impact-resistant designs that ensure durability against strong winds and external forces. Our precision-engineered seals, multi-chamber profiles, and efficient drainage systems prevent water infiltration even during heavy rains, ensuring water tightness. Incorporating multi-chamber uPVC profiles, double or triple glazing, and thermal breaks in aluminium frames reduce heat transfer, guaranteeing thermal insulation and energy efficiency. Combined with rigorous testing, these features make our fenestration systems reliable, weather-resistant, and ideal for extreme climatic conditions. All our products are tested at our in-house testing facility using the KS Test Rig for air permeability and resistance to gusty wind and water ingress.

Please explain the technologies you have adopted in the design, installation, and maintenance of your fenestration solutions.
Our designs leverage CAD-based precision engineering and advanced simulation tools to create profiles optimised for performance, durability, and aesthetics. During installation, we utilise laser-guided measurement systems and specialised tools for accurate fitting, ensuring perfect structural integration. Our user-friendly features, like low-maintenance finishes and easy-clean designs, complemented by IoT-enabled monitoring systems for predictive upkeep, enable easy maintenance. These technological advancements are testimony to our commitment to delivering high-quality, efficient, and innovative uPVC and aluminium systems tailored to modern architectural needs.

How are your products tested for quality and safety, and what standards or certifications have they met?
At Encraft, quality and safety are paramount. Our products undergo rigorous testing for durability, impact resistance, water tightness, thermal insulation, and soundproofing in state-of-the-art laboratories. They are designed and manufactured to comply with international and national standards such as EN 12608, ASTM and ISO 9001 for quality management. Additionally, our systems meet certifications for UV resistance, wind load compliance, and fire safety standards, ensuring robust performance in diverse conditions. Each product is tested for long-term reliability under extreme weather conditions.  This reflects our commitment to delivering fenestration solutions prioritising safety, efficiency, and durability for Indian and global markets.

Please walk us through your strategies to ensure the sustainability and eco-friendliness of your products.
Sustainability is one of our core values. We prioritise eco-friendly materials such as lead-free uPVC profiles and recyclable aluminium, reducing environmental impact. Our manufacturing processes are energy-efficient, minimising waste and emissions. Our products are designed to enhance the energy efficiency of buildings through superior thermal insulation, reducing the need for artificial heating or cooling. We adhere to global environmental standards, including RoHS compliance.  Additionally, we encourage green practices by offering recyclable solutions and supporting sustainable construction initiatives. Combining innovation with responsibility ensures that our products contribute to a healthier planet and a sustainable future.
