Evaks are uPVC window and door profiles made lead-free in Azerbaijan. Our catalogue has two Evaks systems: the 3-chamber Gilavar and the 5-chamber Leysan. Below we compare them by their published specs with each other and with an imported profile of the same class, the Pimapen S70 Maximus (Turkey). We make Evaks plastic windows to the size of the opening; the price is calculated after a free measurement.

What Evaks is
Evaks is a local uPVC profile brand: the profiles are made lead-free under the "Made in Azerbaijan" mark, which makes them a safe choice for homes and public interiors. The catalogue has two systems, Gilavar and Leysan, both with black TPE gaskets. "Evaks plastic windows" usually means uPVC windows and doors built on these profiles.
Evaks Gilavar — 3 chambers, 60 mm
Gilavar is a 3-chamber profile, 60 mm deep. A double gasket system (internal and external) with black TPE seals gives solid tightness. It takes a single 4 mm glass or a 20 mm glass unit. It is well suited to classic window and door builds.
Evaks Leysan — 5 chambers, 70 mm
Leysan is the more energy-efficient model in the Evaks range: 5 chambers, 70 mm depth and a triple gasket system (internal, middle and external). It takes thicker glass units — 20, 24 and 30 mm — so it keeps heat in and noise out better than Gilavar. It suits cold and noisy rooms. Quality control is done at the Sumgait plant.
Evaks or an imported profile
Evaks Leysan is in the same class as imported 5-chamber profiles. The Turkish Pimapen S70 Maximus also has 5 chambers and a 70 mm depth; the catalogue lists it as class A with a 2.8 mm wall, it takes glass units up to 33 mm, and its gaskets are double (Leysan has triple). Winklaus 70 is in the same class too: 5 chambers, 70 mm, steel reinforcement and EPDM gaskets. For maximum energy efficiency there is the 7-chamber Winklaus 75 or Deceuninck Nirvana; all profiles are compared in the "How to choose a uPVC window profile" guide.
How to choose
For a utility room, an internal window or a simple classic window, Evaks Gilavar is enough. For a flat, or a cold or noisy room, the 5-chamber Evaks Leysan is the better pick. If you want a class A profile, choose the Pimapen S70 Maximus. We pick the profile together with you at the free measurement, to suit the opening and your needs.
