In Australia’s modern residential design, from Sydney’s ocean-view villas to suburban homes in Melbourne, sunrooms have become an essential architectural feature.
They blend indoor comfort with outdoor openness, creating spaces that capture sunlight, views, and a sense of freedom.
But for developers, the decision behind choosing a sunroom system goes far beyond aesthetics — the real question is:
Is it AS2047 certified?
1. AS2047: A Benchmark for Structural Safety
The AS2047 certification, issued by Standards Australia, defines national requirements for air tightness, water penetration resistance, wind pressure strength, and structural integrity.
For sunrooms, this certification ensures that:
Glass and framing remain stable under high wind or heavy rain;
Sealing systems effectively block water leaks and air infiltration;
The overall structure resists deformation under long-term temperature and humidity exposure.
Given Australia’s diverse climate — coastal salt air, inland heat, and southern rainstorms — uncertified products often face problems like leakage, expansion, and reduced durability.
Developers therefore prefer AS2047-certified systems for their lower maintenance risk and higher client trust.
2. Energy Efficiency and Comfort
AS2047 certification also includes thermal performance evaluations such as U-value and SHGC (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient).
When paired with Low-E double or triple glazing, AS2047-certified sunrooms significantly improve energy efficiency — keeping interiors cool in summer and warm in winter.
This directly boosts the NatHERS energy rating of residential projects, enhancing both environmental performance and property value — a key reason developers choose certified products.
3. M&C Windows & Doors: Turning Certification into Quality
M&C Windows & Doors, a China-based manufacturer certified under AS2047, has earned developer trust across Australia through strict quality and engineering discipline.
At its Guangdong production base, M&C operates advanced extrusion lines, thermal break insulation systems, and in-house testing facilities.
Every product undergoes over 30 tests — including wind pressure, water tightness, and temperature cycling — to meet and exceed Australian standards.
From Sydney to Brisbane, M&C’s ultra-slim sliding doors and panoramic sunroom systems have become synonymous with modern minimalism and structural reliability.
4. Why Developers Prefer AS2047-Certified Sunrooms
✅ Compliance – Fully meets BCA (Building Code of Australia) standards, simplifying approval.
✅ Reliability – Reduces risk of leakage or warranty issues.
✅ Energy Efficiency – Improves thermal performance and reduces long-term energy costs.
✅ Market Value – Certification enhances buyer confidence and property appeal.
For Australian developers, choosing an AS2047-certified sunroom isn’t just about meeting regulations — it’s about building safer, smarter, and more sustainable homes.
