The Window Energy Rating Scheme (WERS) is Australia's independent, scientifically-backed authority for evaluating the thermal performance of fenestration products. Managed by the Australian Glass and Window Association (AGWA), WERS provides a standardized 10-star rating system that measures how a window or door system impacts a building’s energy footprint. Unlike generic claims, WERS ratings are derived from rigorous computer simulations and physical testing, ensuring that every rating is accurate to the specific climate and orientation of a structure.

At CIVRO, we believe that high-end design should never come at the expense of environmental responsibility. Being a WERS member allows us to provide architects and developers with certified, verifiable data on our systems’ U-values and Solar Heat Gain Coefficients (SHGC). In a world where energy codes like the NCC are becoming increasingly stringent, our WERS accreditation serves as a technical guarantee. It ensures that our aluminum systems - noted for their slim profiles and expansive glass - meet the highest benchmarks for thermal insulation, helping our clients achieve superior 7-star energy ratings for their residential and commercial projects.
