  • Integrity's newly upgraded Wood-Ultrex casements and awnings continue to be made with the industry's best non-wood window material: Ultrex. Eight times stronger than vinyl with a low-maintenance finish that builders love, Ultrex will not warp, chalk, fade or distort. Ultrex is available in a Bronze finish (a capability that vinyl does not have) and expands and contracts at the same minute rate as glass, eliminating stress crack and seal failure that can compromise performance and energy efficiency. The Wood-Ultrex line offers the classic beauty of real wood on the interior with the toughness of Ultrex on the exterior.
