Based on a premium series from Europe by Kömmerling and optimised for Kiwi conditions, Klima is the ultimate performer when it comes to keeping out the winter cold. Being made of highly durable uPVC, Klima Series windows and doors can also withstand the harshest sunlight.
The Klima Series products are only available in white, but can also be supplied in other colours using the AluClip system. It is a powdercoated aluminium facing clipped onto the exterior frame. As a result, your colour choice becomes virtually unlimited.

Double Glazing
Thermal Heart is a range of ‘thermally broken’ windows and doors that have a polyamide insulator incorporated into all aluminium profiles providing a highly effective barrier. This barrier minimises the transmission of cold and subsequent condensation build up.
Thermal Heart windows and doors perform 35% better than standard double glazed windows and doors and provide a 130% improvement over standard single glazed products. Exterior noise levels are also substantially reduced.
APL’s Thermal Heart technology for windows and doors meets contemporary and regulatory requirements for energy efficiency in homes.

On average, we breathe 13,000 litres of air per day and spend around 90% of our day indoors – either at home, work or school.
We’re away from home more than ever and have concerns around noise, security and bugs so we don’t open our windows enough to keep our indoor air fresh through the whole day.
Indoor pollutants such as moisture, allergens, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are trapped inside which impacts our health and performance and can damage buildings.
Thorough ventilation is the best way to keep our indoor air quality high and flush out moisture and indoor pollutants.
