EAGON Windows (CEO Choi Kyu-hwan), a company specializing in premium system windows, announced that inquiries regarding the installation and replacement of system windows increased significantly this past summer amid abnormal weather in which extreme rainfall and heat waves repeatedly occurred.
In July of this year, when abnormal weather phenomena were particularly severe, the number of window-related inquiry calls received by the EAGON Windows customer center rose by more than 25% compared to the previous month, and the company expects this to have a positive effect on product sales during the autumn peak season for moving and interior renovation. In particular, EAGON Windows' flagship product—its high-performance aluminum system windows—offers strong durability with no bending or deformation of the frame even under harsh weather phenomena accompanied by strong winds and extreme heat, thanks to its differentiated structural performance and material characteristics. As a result, it is in high demand in the premium construction market, including hotels, townhouses, luxury villas, and skyscrapers. High-performance aluminum system windows are characterized by their ability to secure the sense of openness that is most valued in interiors with wide-open views—such as hotels and resorts built along coastal areas and luxury residences along the Han River in Seoul—as well as by their exceptionally enhanced ▲airtightness ▲wind pressure resistance ▲sound insulation and ▲watertightness, so that they can be used with confidence even in skyscrapers or in regions with severe climate change.
EAGON Windows has further strengthened the thermal insulation performance of its window products, including aluminum system windows, to prepare for heat waves that intensify each year. Accordingly, the products prevent the loss of cool air through the windows and block the inflow of sunlight and external heat, thereby contributing to improved cooling efficiency and a comfortable indoor environment.
The 'Passive Series (ESS 250 LS),' the flagship product among EAGON Windows' aluminum system windows, is a high-performance aluminum system window that achieves a world-leading thermal transmittance, with excellent thermal insulation performance rated Grade 1 or higher in energy consumption efficiency as its key advantage. To dramatically improve thermal insulation performance, the 'Passive Series (ESS 250 LS)' applies a 'hybrid insulation frame design' as its core technology, providing outstanding thermal insulation performance that was difficult to achieve with conventional single-pane aluminum system windows. In particular, when combined with EAGON Windows' 'SUPER Vacuum Glass,' it can achieve a passive-house-class thermal transmittance (0.87 W/㎡K). In addition, by designing the sash of the fixed window to be integrated with the frame, it maximizes the glass area, allowing you to enjoy a wider and more refreshing view from indoors. Furthermore, the 'EVO Series,' a premium PVC system window line, applies décor sheets from Germany's Continental to reflect radiant heat coming from outside and to minimize heat-induced frame damage. This complements the weakness of PVC products, which often suffer deformation caused by intense external radiant heat in summer, improving both durability and product lifespan. In addition, reflecting the latest architectural and interior trends, it offers an outstanding sense of openness, and by applying concealed hardware, it emphasizes a simple exterior appearance, while options such as a dedicated condensation drainage rail and an insect-screen rail enhance convenience.
An EAGON Windows official said, "As abnormal weather with repeated extreme rainfall and heat waves is expected to become even more severe going forward due to climate change and the development of El Niño, demand for high-performance windows that are highly durable and can improve cooling efficiency is increasing significantly," adding, "Most of the sites where EAGON Windows products have been installed—such as Tower Palace, I-PARK Samsung, and the new SBS Mokdong headquarters—still use the same products even after more than 20 years. As this stable performance has become known among construction experts, EAGON Windows products are especially preferred in regions that are greatly affected by the climate."
Meanwhile, EAGON Group, a company specializing in premium comprehensive building materials, is composed of four domestic affiliates—▲EAGON Windows ▲EAGON Industrial ▲EAGON Greentech and ▲EAGON Energy—along with three overseas corporations, all under the holding company EAGON Holdings (CEOs: Park Seung-jun, Ahn Ki-myung).
