Ultrex Fiberglass
Previously known as Integrity All Ultrex, the Essential Collection features durable Ultrex® fiberglass interiors and exteriors, making it virtually maintenance-free.
Choosing the right materials for windows and doors is important when it comes to long-term appearance and performance. Ultrex® , an innovative fiberglass material pioneered by Marvin over 20 years ago, was one of the first premium composites on the market. However, not all composites are created equal.
• Some companies use materials like sawdust and vinyl to produce a composite material with fundamentally different properties and performance values. But Ultrex is different. Its material makeup contains a high density of woven fibers bound by a thermally-set resin that makes it more resistant to pressure and temperature than vinyl-based composites.
• With such different materials grouped in the composites category, it becomes important to know what sets them apart.
Ultrex fiberglass impact resistant and more rigid than vinyl and vinyl/wood composites. Issues of instability and less-than-perfect alignment that can complicate installation—and long-term performance— are not a concern with Essential Collection windows and doors. The exceptional strength and stability of Ultrex eases installation and establishes a secure, long-lasting fit that stays square and true, year after year
Year-round comfort
