The difference is in the material used for the window frames: uPVC windows are made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), while aluminium windows are made from an aluminium alloy. UPVC windows are usually cheaper and thanks to better insulation properties, they tend to be more energy efficient. Aluminium windows are stronger and more rigid and can have a much sleeker, less-intrusive frame. Because of its strength, it’s also possible to have larger windows in aluminium frames than with UPVC frames.
Aluminium windows are expected to last significantly longer than uPVC windows with a life expectancy of around 40-50 years.
