What is an aluminum clad wood window?

An aluminum-clad wood window is a type of composite window that features a wooden frame as its core, with an outer layer of aluminum cladding.

This design combines the advantages of both materials: the internal wooden frame provides a naturally aesthetic texture, along with excellent insulation and soundproofing properties. The external aluminum layer, on the other hand, resists damage from external elements such as wind, rain, and UV rays, enhancing the window’s durability and corrosion resistance.

By retaining the warm, inviting feel of wood while addressing the drawbacks of pure wooden windows (such as susceptibility to warping or rotting in outdoor environments), aluminum-clad wood windows are suitable for various climates and architectural styles.
