Designing with colour

Coextrusion: the technique

A thermal process used to fuse the profile's base form (at this stage still made of molten white PVC ) with molten acrylic in an unbreakable bond. The molten acrylic is applied to all surfaces that will later be subjected to the harsh effects of the sun, wind, rain and snow.

As the profile leaves the two coextrusion dies, it is already two-coloured. The result of this coextrusion process is unparalleled colour veracity. Even in projects where window units in the same building were installed over a span of several years, there was virtually no visible difference between the first windows and the last.

GEALAN has been coextruding profiles since 1980. Our experience in this field has been rewarded with the RAL certification as well as the South German Plastics Centre seal of approval.
