XTREME® WINDOWS & DOORS - BUSHFIRE PROTECTION FOR TODAY’S EXTREME BUILDING ENVIRONMENTS
With the ever increasing demand and marginalisation of available land for building houses and with bushfires becoming an increasing part of our Australian climatic conditions there has never been a larger focus on building standards and codes.
It is a fact that many homes lost to bush fires actually survive the main fire, only to fall victim to embers infiltrating through failed components of the building envelope.
That is why Trend® has developed the Xtreme® range of aluminium windows and doors. Featuring Pyro-Protec components with 5mm toughened glass, Xtreme® Window and Door systems have been tested to temperatures up to 40kw/m2 of heat flux (CSIRO tested) without failure.
This window system is a cost efficient solution to a problem that is fast becoming a national challenge.
Products available in the Xtreme® Bushfire range are awning, sliding and fixed windows, sliding, hinged and bifold doors.

ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOWS BY TREND WINDOWS & DOORS - THERMASHIELD
Energy is such a hot issue! Trend Windows and Doors has addressed energy efficiency with up to 7½ star rating options with Thermashield®, a much more precise way to shield yourself and others from weather extremes.
The extensive selection of windows and doors in Thermashield is extremely efficient in energy terms and delivers very low u-values of 1.9, with single, double glazing and low–e glass combinations (NFRC Figures). With very low air infiltration, Solar Heat Gain Co-efficient levels reduced to around 0.3, Thermashield can offer significant savings by reducing expensive energy bills.

TREND WINDOWS & DOORS NEW "SYNERGY"
With energy such a hot issue Trend Windows and Doors has released its new Synergy range of uPVC double glazed windows and doors.
As part of the Thermashield family of products that address the window system solution to energy efficiency, the Synergy range has been carefully designed with the ‘whole’ system in mind. The range is extremely efficient in energy terms with very low u-values, due to the material composition and the 25mm double glazed unit. With very low air infiltration, glazing combinations and very high STC ratings for noise, the ‘whole’ system is covered. With u-values around 1 and with Solar Heat Gain reduced to around .5, energy savings in heating climates of around 50% are achievable.
Trend has made significant investment already in R&D developing the Synergy range and expects to further this development over the next 18 months as production gears up for the planned demand for energy efficient products.
Aesthetically the range is similar to existing product in the market place so very little change is made to the presentation. Ventilation is covered, as is the accommodation for pelmets, curtains and insect screens. The Synergy range is very low maintenance.
Glazing is covered with the ability for the range to be glazed internally. This is especially for multi story dwellings and buildings where working at height regulations necessitating the requirement for scaffolding.
Trend is the first high volume, national window company to introduce uPVC products into the Australian market and make the product available to the major, high volume project home building companies.
