Profile 22 has supplied its Optima Casement solution to 84 social housing properties in Hulme, Manchester.

The three blocks of two and three-storey buildings belong to Manchester-based social landlord, People First Housing.

For this project, Profile 22 Optima Casement PVC-U windows in grey on white were used – the system offers exceptional performance in energy efficiency, weather protection and security.

The windows of these 84 homes needed to be upgraded as the existing timber frames had started to fail. The old windows meant that the homes weren’t energy efficient and they had started to look untidy.

Available in a wide range of colours, Profile 22’s Optima range offers the latest innovation in windows and doors. With Optima you can expect exceptional thermal performance, as well as a range of systems which mean more choice for installers and customers.

The 70mm depth Optima Casement system offers better design and easy installation. The slim, chamfered shape is clean, contemporary and attractive, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including casement, tilt and turn, French casement, and French doors.

The system also has the widest range of glazing options on the market (24-44mm), including triple glazing in three sizes.
