Eurocell offers modern take on traditional looks

EP1603MS Eurocell Modus S Mechanical JointEurocell has announced a significant new addition to its market-leading Modus range: Modus S – a mechanically jointed flush sash casement window, which combines modern materials with a truly authentic traditional appearance. This latest model to join the Modus range is possible thanks to additional precision-engineered mouldings inside the frame which remove the need for diagonal corner welds – a distinctive characteristic of standard PVC-U windows.

The new joint detail adds considerable authenticity to the appearance of the window and enables installers and fabricators to provide a product with the look of timber, while retaining all the optimum energy efficiency and virtually maintenance-free performance benefits of PVC-U. Furthermore, it is up to 25% less expensive than the nearest equivalent PVC-U flush sash product.

Eurocell claims that its combination of superb looks, leading technical performance and cost-effectiveness makes Modus S the best value flush sash casement window yet.

Given its traditional appearance, the new product is ideal for Victorian-style properties, cottages and conservation areas where the homeowner wishes to maintain or enhance the period look of the property, without the maintenance legacy burden of repainting and repairs associated with timber windows.

Flush on both sides, Modus S offers sleek looks unbroken by external bead lines as, like most contemporary windows, the system is internally beaded for enhanced security standards.

Featuring a unique 75mm six-chamber profile system, the Modus range delivers optimum energy efficiency performance and can achieve a U-value as low as 0.7 – surpassing Passivhaus standards. And Modus casement windows were amongst the first to be awarded the new A++ Window Energy Rating by the BFRC, confirming maximum double-glazed window performance.

Modus S is available in ten colours from stock – including the White Ash, Cream White and Anteak popular for period, premium and self-build properties. In addition, Eurocell offers a sophisticated alternative to Chartwell Green amongst its made-to-order options. Called Agate Grey, its subtle hue has been appealing to customers at major exhibitions over the past 12 months.

The market for premium flush sash windows is continuing to grow as discerning homeowners seek more differentiation in their choice of windows. Therefore, Modus S and the value it offers look set to build on the success of the rest of the Modus range.
