PREMIUM QUALITY MATERIALS
FOR A LIFETIME OF HASSLE-FREE PERFORMANCE
Not all vinyl windows are created equal. Low-grade PVC can bend, bow and discolor. That's why Penguin windows are made from high quality New Generation vinyl - the strongest, most advanced material we could find. Specially formulated uiPVC(polyvinyl chloride), New Generation vinyl withstands harsh weather and wear-and-tear better, with through-and-through color to resist the appearance of scratching and look like new for years to come.

Fiberbeam™ WITH I-BEAM CONSTRUCTION
Each Penguin double-hung window is reinforced with Fiberbeam™ Reinforcement with I-Beam Construction. Designed to resist wind velocity pressures of 75 pounds per square foot (equal to a wind load of 170 miles per hour) this technology provides added durability and strength to the sill of the window. The extra rigid sill maintains its weather seal with the sash to keep out air and water in even the most ferocious wind conditions. Fiberbeam reinforcements are also included in Penguin picture windows and sliding windows. For added strength the reinforcement is used in the sill and head of these windows.

SUPERIOR MANUFACTURING METHODS ENSURE SUPERIOR STRENGTH
Most windows are held together with staples or screws and caulk that can loosen or weaken over time. But Penguin frames and sash are pinch fusion welded — an advanced technique that permanently fuses all four sides together into a single weather-tight unit, guaranteed to stay strong and square for the life of the window. And instead of metal reinforcements which conduct heat and cold, Penguin windows feature InterForce II™ high-performance internal fiberglass reinforcements for added strength, security and energy efficiency.

Independent tests prove Penguin windows perform significantly better than the industry standard for windows and much better than wood windows. That's because every Penguin window features the best in thermal efficiency technology, including:

PATENTED R-Core® INSULATION
The R-factor (insulation value) per linear inch of a Penguin window frame is seven times greater than that of an ordinary vinyl frame. The secret is our patented R-Core insulation – a high-density solid-polyurethane insulation, like the kind used in many refrigerator and freezer doors.

WARM-EDGE Intercept® GLASS SPACER SYSTEM
This advanced insulated glass spacer system virtually eliminates cold-spot corners, frost, fog and condensation. Like all spacers, it works by maintaining a consistent space between the two panes of glass to interrupt the natural flow of heat to cold. Unlike other spacers, Intercept is a continuous U-shaped channel that flexes as the glass expands and contracts. The result is a stronger, more energy-efficient insulated glass unit and a reliable seal for the life of the window.

PENGUIN GLASS SYSTEM
Penguin windows feature the very best in thermal efficiency technology. Our system incorporates either argon (40%** denser than air) or krypton (190%** denser than air). These safe, naturally occurring gases help to block the transfer of heat better than air which increases energy efficiency, adds protection from the sun’s damaging rays, and helps to deaden sound. **Figures courtesy of Linde Gas, Inc.
