Vinyl windows are widely available across a number of manufacturers. For reasons we’ll get to in just a minute, we’ve developed a smart alternative to the 100%-vinyl window. Fibrex material performs better in all climates, won’t fade*, is aesthetically pleasing, and can be used in any project — from replacement to new builds. If you’re considering black windows, you’ll want to understand the difference between these two materials. To help you do that, we’re answering a few of the most frequently asked questions about black vinyl windows and explaining how they compare to Fibrex material windows.

Yes, vinyl windows are available in a variety of colors, including black. It’s important to note that many vinyl windows are painted, which means they will eventually need to be repainted. On the other hand, Fibrex material windows will never need to be repainted. They’re available in black (and a range of other colors) through our 100 Series product line and have a finish that’s 12x thicker than vinyl for superior scratch resistance.** In fact, these windows are virtually maintenance free.
