So if you are considering replacing windows, here’s what you need to know about fiberglass windows.
What are fiberglass windows?
Manufacturers create fiberglass windows by passing fiberglass wires through a heated resin. The material can be arranged in different ways: woven into a fabric, randomly arranged or flattened into a sheet. It will hold up even when subjected to extreme temperatures and constant abuse. The material is therefore used in boats, bridges, goalie masks and, yes, windows. Here are some of the benefits you can expect:
