An aluminum window exterior does not necessarily mean that the entire frame is metal. Some windows are aluminum-clad wood. Typically a soft wood such as Ponderosa pine gives the window both its structural strength and acts as a thermal break. The thin aluminum cladding protects against the elements.

Aluminium window frames tend to be stronger than uPVC so you can have thinner frames and more space for the glass. Aluminium frames can last longer than uPVC windows depending on the conditions.
