In 2018 we will celebrate 15 years in the profile bending industry and in that time we have gone from strength to strength. Originally set up as a small family run business, we realised that there was a gap in the local UPVC market for arched, circular and shaped frames that required the profile to be bent during the manufacturing process.
This was back in 2003 and initial orders came primarily from St Helens and Liverpool. Since then our customer base has expanded and we now deliver frames all over the UK, while still maintaining strong working partnerships with our earliest local customers.
As one of the UK’s leading UPVC arched frame manufacturers, we offer a wide range of frames, from circular window frames to arched door frames.
With the latest profile forming equipment, we guarantee to get the optimum bend for the chosen profile.
What is UPVC profile bending?
UPVC profile bending is sometimes referred to as “arched forming” or “shaped frame manufacturing”. Profile bending is where extrusions used within the Window industry are heated up using a UPVC profile bending machine.
This curved section can then be used to make a gable frame, arched window, gothic arch or circular window, depending on the section type that has been used.
Profiles available for profile bending are Deceuninck, Duraflex, Eurocell, Halo, Liniar, Rehau or Veka.
Whether you need a half opening circular window frame or a bespoke arched composite frame, you can guarantee we will manufacture these to perfection.
We can collect customers own profile or we also stock our own profiles for all the major profile providers.
Here at ArcOframe, we manufacture and supply specialist frames to the window, conservatory gable ends
and door industry, as well as the following:
- Major profile carrier
- Profile collection service

Exactly as its name implies, a profile bending machine is designed to cold-bend profiles.
Usually, these machines are used in the metal industry to bend tubes, bars, T-profiles, U-profiles and beams into different shapes and sizes. However, here at ArcOframe, we use profile bending machines to create round, arched and circular uPVC profiles for windows and doors.
The way these machines work is simple. The profile that needs shaping is inserted into the machine between the rolls. These apply force to the profile, and the movement of the rolls results in deformation (bending).
As leaders in uPVC profile bending, our experts can use profile bending machines, along with the latest techniques, to produce arches and curved sections of any size to suit your exact measurements. That means you can relax knowing your windows or doors will fit neatly inside your frames, eliminating the risk of any errors.
This innovative approach not only allows us to supply frames for round, arched, gable and circular windows or composite doors that fit like a glove, but it can also enhance the appearance of your property and increase its value.
If you want to make a statement with your windows and doors, profile bending is definitely the way forward.
