Modus: the most sustainable window system on the market – now enhanced by Neovyn

With the built environment responsible for 50% of the UK’s total carbon emissions and 61% of all waste generated through construction and demolition, the need for truly sustainable materials has never been more urgent. For specifiers and developers seeking high-performance products that can meet ESG obligations without compromise, Eurocell’s Modus window system offers a clear solution – and now, with the introduction of low-carbon Neovyn, it sets a new benchmark for sustainable innovation.

Already Eurocell’s most sustainable window and door range, Modus contains up to 50% post-consumer recycled PVC-U – helping divert over 3 million frames annually from landfill. Crucially, PVC-U can be recycled up to ten times, giving it a potential 350-year lifespan. Now enhanced with Neovyn, a PVC resin produced using renewable energy and with 37% lower greenhouse gas emissions than the EU industry average, Modus enables specifiers to reduce both embodied carbon and scope 3 emissions at no added cost.

From an aesthetic and performance perspective, Modus makes no compromises. With U-values as low as 0.76 W/m²K, it offers outstanding energy efficiency and long-term thermal performance. It’s fully recyclable at end of life and manufactured just 10 miles from Eurocell’s recycling centre, contributing to a closed-loop, low-impact supply chain.

As building regulations tighten and circularity becomes a requirement rather than a ‘nice to have’, Modus is designed to support compliance with Future Homes Standard, PAS 2035 and whole-life carbon targets. Its sustainability credentials strengthen planning and funding applications and offer a tangible route to meeting customer, investor and legislative expectations.

Ian Kernaghan, Head of Products, Design and Development at Eurocell, explains:

“Our integration of Neovyn into the Modus profile range is the result of rigorous testing and technical diligence. It’s a huge step forward in offering fabricators, developers and specifiers a low-carbon solution that delivers the same quality, durability and aesthetic our customers expect.”

To help the market better understand how circular materials can support ROI and ESG targets, Eurocell also offers an accredited CPD, ‘Sustainability and ROI’ – exploring the business case for switching to recycled and circular materials.
