Frame material is a critical choice in any window replacement project. While vinyl is a popular and affordable option, it has drawbacks such as warping, discoloration and a shorter lifespan. At Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City, we provide a superior alternative to vinyl windows — Fibrex®. Learn more about the advantages of Fibrex windows in this post.
Weather conditions can be diverse. That’s why it’s essential to have windows that can withstand these fluctuations without warping or deteriorating quickly. Unlike vinyl, which can soften and become malleable when exposed to high temperatures, Fibrex retains its stability.
Composed of reclaimed wood fiber and thermoplastic polymer, Fibrex windows won’t crack, pit, corrode or rot. Moreover, Fibrex doesn’t require the frequent maintenance that wood or even vinyl windows typically need, freeing you from the cycle of scraping, repainting or restaining.
Fibrex offers the classic and appealing look of wood without the maintenance headaches. So, whether you’re upgrading to picture windows or prefer double-hung windows for a traditional look, Fibrex frames can provide the durability of wood without the need for time-consuming upkeep.
The composition of Fibrex gives it excellent insulative properties, which contribute to a more comfortable indoor environment and potential savings on your heating and cooling bills. This insulation performance is especially important for those looking to replace large picture windows that can be a significant source of energy loss.
Fibrex stands out for its green credentials. The use of reclaimed wood fiber in its production means that fewer trees are cut down, making it a sustainable choice for window replacement.
Fibrex’s inherent strength allows for slimmer frames, which means more glass and more expansive views in your backyard. This strength also translates to improved structural integrity and longevity for your windows.
Every home is unique, and so are the tastes and needs of each homeowner. Fibrex material allows for extensive customization options in color and style, ensuring that your new windows will match the aesthetic of your residence perfectly.

Our team of experts is ready to provide you with a seamless and efficient installation process, ensuring your home is equipped with the best windows.
