Who is considered the inventor of PVC windows?

PVC window appeared recently, but their popularity among buyers is increasing.  These windows are installed both in apartments and in offices, private houses and various buildings. Of course, using PVC Windows and enjoying the peace, comfort, coziness, very few people will think about their creator. However, we decided to talk about a few little-known facts from the history of the creation of these modern translucent structures.
 
PVC (polyvinyl chloride) was created in the 19th century, in fact it is high strength plastic. The discovery was made in the USA. However, this wonderful material was ahead of its time, none could measure the opportunities and for a some time it was forgotten. But industrial revolution of the 20th century didn't allow 
PVC to be fogotten completely. With the appearence of the first plastic products, in the middle of last century started the production of windows and doors made of PVC.
 For new material for the manufacture of windows to become so popular, both physicists and chemists had to work hard on its formula as initially it was not so strong and reliable. The first plastic window was made by German designer Heinz Pache in 1952. Therefore, despite the fact that PVC was invented in America, Germany became the first manufacturer of its products. Up to now the quality of windows made in Germany is beyond comparison.
