LocationsThe Ultrex Fiberglass Advantage
More than 20 years ago, Marvin® started building fiberglass replacement windows and doors. We created the replacement industry’s strongest frame material with our fiberglass. Ultrex® fiberglass—our proprietary fiberglass solution offers unsurpassed durability and timeless style. Learn more about the advantages of Ultrex fiberglass.
What is Ultrex fiberglass?
Ultrex is a custom reinforced fiberglass composite used to create windows and patio doors. Ultrex has superior strength, stability, and durability to other window and patio door materials. Ultrex won’t melt or lose its shape, even when exposed to extreme temperatures of up 285° F.
Ultrex Fiberglass Construction
Raw Fiberglass Strands: We start with thin strands of strong glass cables and saturate them with specifically compounded resins.
Pultruded Fiberglass: We pull the strands through a heated die and cut them with diamond-edged blades to form Ultrex.
Proprietary Acrylic Finish: We top Ultrex off with our proprietary acrylic finish that is smoother and 3x thicker than competitive options.
Ultrex Fiberglass Benefits
Ultrex fiberglass has unmatched strength, stability, and outstanding fade-resistance.
It's an easy choice for windows and patio doors you can enjoy for years to come.
Strength
Ultrex fiberglass is built tough to take the hits—like wind, rain, hail, and branches.
Stability
Ultrex's low expansion means our windows and patio doors stay tight and true.
Fade-Resistant
Not even 48,000 hours of sunlight can fade the thick, superior acrylic finish of Ultrex fiberglass.*
*Average sunlight exposure per 10 years
Ultrex Fiberglass: Proven Strength for Peace of Mind
Compared to other materials, Ultrex is the strongest window framing material in the replacement industry.
Ultrex is 8x stronger than vinyl and 3x stronger than Fibrex
Ultrex offers superior bending and flexing resistance to protect the integrity of your home.
Ultrex Fiberglass: Leak-Resistant + More
Our Ultrex windows and patio doors are resistant to leaks, seal failures, and stress cracks.
Ultrex expands 87% less than vinyl and 75% less than Fibrex
Vinyl expands at a much higher rate than glass, which may compromise your window’s performance.
Fade-Resistant Finish
Our proprietary acrylic finish is 3x thicker than competitive options to resist scratches, fading, chalking, chipping, denting, and peeling. Best of all, it’s virtually maintenance-free.

An Investment That Can Save You Money on Energy Bills

*Savings reflects installing ENERGY STAR® certified products compared to non-certified when replacing single pane windows based on the average savings among homes in modeled cities.
