Sumario:Reflections about technology are recurring research topics. The questioning of its purported neutrality and its deterministic vision has a history since the early twentieth century. However, in the area of development of construction technologies where there are important theoretical contributions, there are few alternative practical contributions. In this paper, some conceptualizations are analyzed, coming from theoretical aspects of technologies and their deepening in the Latin American context, by the hand of social technologies (TS). Through the emerging of those conceptualizations, this article presents a case study, guided to the development of window manufacturing technology, from the production of plastic profiles of recycled polimer material. The case study aims to add a committed visión to sustainability of technological processes, with a non-deterministic and non-neutral perspective encouraged from the criteria of the TS.
