Reviews of Proplex - with a feeling of deep patriotism...

Plastic windows “Proplex” are made from profiles produced by a Russian company. The enterprise, located in the city of Podolsk, is equipped with modern equipment and uses technologies developed by Austrian specialists. The brand's products are in steady demand in our country. This is facilitated by:

  • Innovation policy of the company.
  • High production culture.
  • Good quality materials.
  • Affordable cost of finished products.

It is no coincidence that in many reviews recommending the best plastic windows to consumers, the Proplex brand is regularly praised as a manufacturer that produces products with an optimal price-quality ratio.

Proplex Optima

The appearance of the Proplex Optima profile is designed in a modern style - without excessive pretentiousness, in a discreet technological manner.

Profile production is controlled by a specially developed quality assurance system.

It includes both control of the production process itself (incoming quality control of raw materials, control at various stages of the technological process, control of finished products - a total of 21 inspection points), and quality assurance subsystems for all service and management processes.

The profile in the mass is milky white with a semi-matte (non-glare) surface.

Advantages of the Proplex Optima profile:

  1. The design and location of the impost chambers eliminate the possibility of freezing of the profile. The reinforcing profile chamber is located between two small chambers, which prevents heat from flowing through the metal. The reinforcing profile itself has a gap on one side, designed to compensate for changes in linear dimensions with temperature changes. Inside the profile, the reinforcing liner is located with a slot towards the outside, since it is outside that sharp temperature changes occur (heating from the sun, frost, etc.)
  2. Special grooves on the hidden profile planes facilitate the fastening of fittings and reinforcement liners, preventing the screws from being torn off and accurately marking the attachment points
  3. The bead is manufactured with a co-extruded seal. Such a seal, unlike a stretched one, does not decrease in size over time and does not “dry out” or crack.
  4. The design of the bead ensures stepless interfacing with other profiles (dirt does not accumulate at the joint).
  5. The use of transition profiles for glazing beads is not required when producing fixed windows.
  6. The window system uses only two types of reinforcing profiles, while other systems have an average of about four.
  7. The large size of the preliminary chamber improves thermal protection performance.
  8. The presence of bosses on the sashes ensures reliable fastening of the self-tapping screws for the hinges.
  9. The tides in the outer chamber of the window frame reliably fix the screws for fastening the fitting hooks.

Table comparing the characteristics of PROPLEX profile systems

When considering the parameters, it is necessary to take into account that the level of heat conservation of frames and sashes can be slightly increased if steel reinforcement is not used. However, it is better not to refuse to install metal liners, because without them in winter the profile bends and partial depressurization of the windows occurs. That is, in the end, this method will not help improve energy efficiency.

If we compare series of profiles with the same installation depth and number of internal chambers, those systems with greater thickness of the outer walls will be slightly warmer. This property helps to slightly increase the energy efficiency of windows without increasing the installation depth.

Proplex Comfort

We present to your attention the 4-chamber PROPLEX-Comfort system , which is a logical development of the PROPLEX line of profile systems and created in full compliance with modern requirements for the quality of window profiles. Now you can provide customers with the opportunity to choose among 2, 3, 4 and 5-chamber profile systems under our brand, each of which has a number of specific advantages and carries a specific functional load.

Main technical characteristics of the PROPLEX-Comfort system:

  • installation depth - 70mm;
  • infill thickness −12: 40 mm;
  • fittings system −12/20-9;
  • design class (according to GOST 30673-99) - four-chamber;
  • class for the thickness of the front walls (according to GOST 30673-99) - B;
  • class for resistance to climatic influences (according to GOST 30673-99) - frost-resistant design;
  • class for reduced heat transfer resistance (according to GOST 30673-99) - 2;
  • heat transfer resistance 0.79 m2*C/W.

Quality characteristics:

  • For all PROPLEX profile systems, including Comfort, a mixture composition developed specifically for Russia is used. The profiles are recognized as frost-resistant profiles and are recommended for installation in any climatic zones of Russia, including in the Far North;
  • an installation depth of 70 mm provides an increased level of thermal protection and allows customers to significantly save on heating in winter, which becomes especially important for houses (premises) with an autonomous heating system;
  • the milky white color of the profiles belongs to a warm palette and creates a feeling of psychological comfort in the room;
  • windows from this profile are recommended for installation in children's, preschool and medical institutions;
  • Compared to three-chamber profiles, windows from the Comfort series profile provide better heat and noise protection, and compared to five-chamber profiles - a better price.

PROPLEX Basis

This system, with an installation depth of 58 mm, is compatible with both basic security fittings and anti-theft mechanisms. Due to their low energy efficiency, 3-chamber profiles are used mainly for assembling structures used to glaze industrial premises, retail spaces, and summer cottages. The main advantages of the Basis series are affordable cost and reliability.

Proplex Premium


Advantages of the Proplex-Premium profile:

  1. The increased coefficient of resistance to thermal conductivity is achieved thanks to the five-chamber design and the profile width increased to 70 mm. And also by the fact that the reinforcing profile is separated from the outer front wall by at least two preliminary chambers, and from the inner front wall by 1-2 chambers, which reduces the likelihood of the formation of cold bridges and thereby increases the overall coefficient of thermal conductivity resistance. The increased width of the glass rebate allows the use of the entire range of double-glazed windows, including frost-resistant ones, up to 40 mm thick.
  2. The fold under the glass unit has a slight slope to free the cavity from condensation. When installing the filling into the rebate, a compensation spacer is installed under the glass unit, distributing the load on the rebate, on which, in turn, spacer adjusting spacers are installed.
  3. The system is concise in the number of profiles used, necessary for the production of basic types of windows.


    Interchangeable (universal) components:

  • Bead profiles from the standard system are suitable.
  • The design of the lower frame profile hooks allows for the use of additional profiles from the standard system.
  • The profile is reinforced with standard reinforcing profiles (art. 207 and 203).
  • The same seals are used.
  • The fitting system is 12/20-9, the same as that used when using the standard system.
  1. Internal partitions form a chamber under the reinforcing profile. To simplify the orientation of the reinforcing profile, as well as to form an air gap inside the chamber, additional bosses are provided on which the reinforcing profile rests.
  2. The Premium profile system uses only two types of standard configuration reinforcing profiles. Reinforcing profiles for the frame and impost are made in the form of a rectangular pipe.
  3. On the hidden surfaces of the profile there are technological recesses (“grooves”) to facilitate the installation of fittings and reinforcing profiles. The use of “recesses” reduces the possibility of “turning” the screws, accurately marking the attachment points.
  4. The design of the Premium system profiles uses “booms” to ensure more reliable fastening of screws in the profile body by increasing their contact area. When installing hinges on the sash profile, fastening with self-tapping screws is carried out through one front and two inner walls.
  5. Calculation of technological dimensions is carried out using the same formulas as when calculating a standard system. There is no need to make changes to the calculation methodology.

PROPLEX Premium is universal, concise and high frost resistance.

I probably won’t write anything new or surprising, but I collaborated and want to thank you. I chose this company for several reasons. Firstly, the company has been on the plastic products market for a long time, there are many positive reviews, the website is informational. I consider myself one of the people who thoroughly approach the solution of any problem, so before ordering glazing and finishing of the loggia, I looked at many websites in Chelyabinsk. The prices differ significantly from the prices of the same competitors, but in the end I realized that the price was indicated for the finished product, and I figured that it would be about the same, if not cheaper. The manager called Proplex and tried to tactfully answer all my questions and agreed on a measurement date. I went to the Proplex office to conclude an agreement, they also offered to look at finishing options and combine the room with a loggia. I refused, they didn’t try to impose my opinion, they didn’t try to scam me out of money. In my opinion, an obvious plus. Of all types of finishing, I chose wooden lining, because... It is made of natural material and is therefore environmentally friendly, its service life is increased, and it has the functions of thermal insulation and sound insulation. The profile for windows was recommended by the German one - Veka: durable, easy to maintain, resistant to different weather conditions. The frames are 3-chamber, to be precise, Century Euroline, so that everything would be in the same style, I ordered lamination to look like wood.

What was the amount I originally expected and met it using all the discounts? Bonuses included a clothes dryer and a mosquito net.

On the first day, the master arrived and took measurements as expected. A few days later they did the dismantling. The walls were carefully prepared, cleaned of old paint that had swollen in places, all cracks were covered, because... The loggia is located on the north side, the master treated it with a product to protect against mold and mildew. There were no particular problems when installing the windows either, oddly enough, the guys were surprisingly neat. They cleaned up the trash after themselves. Upon inspection, no scratches were found, everything was wrapped in film, handles, hinges, etc. worked properly.

The team worked like this for 4 days, met the deadlines, did not delay from lunch and arrived on time, so on the 3rd and 4th days I gave them complete independence, coming only at the end of the day. The lining was covered with acrylic varnish, it does not emit harmful substances and protects from ultraviolet rays for the balcony.

Additional equipment includes a folding table, 2 cabinets, perimeter lighting, wood-look linoleum. The loggia was handed over to me in a condition that was already suitable for use; all that was left was to wipe off the dust and put all the things in new places.

In addition to the obvious price advantage, the OUTLINE system has a number of advantageous distinctive features from PVC and aluminum systems used for balcony glazing:

  1. Compared to aluminum profiles, products made from PVC profiles retain heat better;
  2. Compared to aluminum profiles, PVC profile products provide better sound insulation;
  3. Compared to sliding aluminum profiles, products made from PVC profiles provide better tightness and guarantee no blowing;
  4. PVC profiles, which are less aluminum, are susceptible to mechanical damage (scratches) both during processing, transportation, installation, and during subsequent everyday use;
  5. Almost the same range of components is used in production as in the manufacture of windows from the PROPLEX-Optima system. This minimizes the company's inventory and purchasing costs;
  6. the presence of additional profiles allows for glazing of objects with complex geometry;
  7. the OUTLINE system uses standard 12/20-9 fittings;
  8. To work with the OUTLINE system, it is enough to purchase an additional set of equipment;
  9. possibility of installing double-glazed windows.

Technical information on the PROPLEX OUTLINE system:

  • Glass, single- and double-glazed windows up to 22 mm can be mounted in the profiles.
  • Advantages of glazing beads: ease of installation and replacement of double-glazed windows.
  • The design of the bead ensures stepless interfacing with the frame (dirt does not accumulate at the joint).
  • Linings for double-glazed windows ensure optimal distribution of loads on the end of the double-glazed window.
  • Weather- and wear-resistant seals prevent water from penetrating into the glass rebate.
  • A co-extruded glazing bead seal, unlike a stretched one, does not dry out or crack, and does not shrink in size over time, which ensures long-term tightness.
  • The seals fit tightly and do not lose their functional properties for many years; thanks to their elasticity, they ensure easy opening and closing of the sashes.
  • The edges of the profile are rounded. Water does not linger on the ledges and flows down easily.
  • The frame, sash and impost are reinforced with metal liners. This allows the structure to withstand wind loads and prevent the sash from sagging under the weight of the double-glazed windows.
  • Drainage holes in the sash and frame ensure the removal of water and condensate.
  • It is possible to hide the holes with drainage covers. The tides in the internal chambers of the profiles reliably fix the self-tapping screws for fastening the fittings.
  • Condensate is drained along the inclined part of the profile fold.

Advantages

  1. Free measurement with the creation of an application on the website.
  2. A quick job to dismantle old frames.
  3. The price includes turnkey installation.
  4. Careful transportation of double-glazed windows without scratches or chips.

The Proplex company produces high-quality polyvinyl chloride profiles for the manufacture of plastic windows and doors, confirmation of the highest consumer qualities of which are the results of numerous tests and tests carried out by various institutes and laboratories, from which it is clear that the Proplex window profile system in many respects exceeds existing standards established in countries Europe.

Windows made from the Proplex profile are recommended for use in government institutions, such as kindergartens, hospitals, maternity hospitals, which traditionally have high requirements for product quality. Such windows are optimal in any climatic zones of Russia and the CIS countries.

In 2002, the Proplex window and door profile system was awarded the “Russian Mark” gold quality mark.

Over 10 years of operation, the company has become one of the five leading companies in the PVC profiles market out of more than a hundred brands existing today in terms of production and sales volume, as well as brand awareness according to statistics from the research marketing center “O.K.N.A Marketing” ” for 2005-2008

The company has all the necessary certificates , and also meets international requirements for the quality of PVC profiles, established by international standards ISO 306, din 53453-7, as well as ral gz 716/1.

The PVC profile system is designed for doors and windows located in any premises, and is also specially adapted to Russian conditions and meets thermal insulation standards and basic international standards.

At the design stage, the company took into account the shortcomings of the profiles of existing systems on the market, as well as the specific environmental and climatic conditions of Russia. Proplex windows are one of the few that meet increased requirements regarding heat and sound insulation.

Profiles are produced in Austria on high-tech lines of companies recognized as leaders in this field, using the original recipe of PVC mixtures and additives, the uniformity of which is considered the best in the industry, and which was specially developed by Chemson. In terms of its color qualities and strength, the Proplex profile is considered one of the best among existing window and door systems.

As of 2009, more than nine and a half million Proplex plastic windows were installed.

By choosing such a PVC profile, you get the best price-quality ratio.

Pros and cons of Proplex windows

Not only technical experts speak well of the company's products. Reviews of Proplex windows left online by customers are mostly positive. This is facilitated by:

  • A successful chemical composition of plastic that retains its original color for a long time and does not deteriorate under the influence of ultraviolet rays.
  • Reliable design, thanks to which decent indicators of acoustic comfort and thermal insulation are achieved. Available in different versions, the Proplex profile is reinforced with metal inserts.
  • A well-thought-out sealing system that ensures the sealing of window openings.
  • Reasonable prices for the entire range of products offered.

Flaws:

True, in this barrel of honey there is, albeit a small, fly in the ointment. Not all consumers are satisfied with the quality of standard fittings. This is strange, because according to the information posted on the official website, they are equipped with fittings from such well-known brands as:

  • T&T (Türkiye).
  • KALE (Türkiye).
  • MACO (Austria).

Perhaps problems arise for customers who order Proplex plastic windows from third-party manufacturers.
