Modern window systems contribute significantly to lowering energy consumption and heating costs as well as to reducing associated CO₂ emissions. From the choice of raw materials and resource-conserving profile production to further processing and final assembly by qualified specialist partners. The disposal and re-use of materials form a closed recycling loop. 

An important ecological advantage of uPVC is that it is 100 % recyclable. Salamander deliberately uses portions of recycled materials in their profile systems. Old windows and doors thus become valuable raw materials and can be utilised for the production of new profiles without any loss in quality.

/// Windows with recycled content are not more expensive than windows made of fresh uPVC

/// The recycled material is only located inside the profile and is not visible from the outside

/// Visually flawless profile outer sides made of new uPVC granulate

/// The combination of materials creates profiles that meet the highest quality, functional and visual requirement
