Black Windows and Patio Doors for a Bold Look

The Ply Gem® 1500 Vinyl Collection of windows and patio doors now features coextruded black interior and exterior options, meaning the color is integrated directly into the vinyl during manufacturing. This technology provides UV protection, color retention and weather resistance.
“The process layers UV inhibitors and reflective pigments into the product so that the windows and doors are resistant to weathering and heat buildup,” said Kate Land, vice president of Product and Innovation, Aperture Solutions – U.S., Cornerstone Building Brands. “This collection seamlessly fuses functionality with style. Not only are the products durable, but they help homeowners achieve that striking visual both inside and out.”
These selections have the power to elevate the aesthetic of residential projects and meet the increasing demand for high-contrast designs. The collection is also designed to improve energy efficiency with a range of glass packages. From region-specific Low-E for solar heat deflection to HPMax triple-pane for ultimate thermal efficiency, the windows and doors provide homeowners with long-term value and comfort.
