GEALAN international:
Colourful window frames
Creating with colour
Coextrusion: the process
With coextrusion, a thermal process fuses the profile's white base form – at this stage still a molten white polymer resin – with a molten acrylic coating to make an unbreakable bond. The molten acrylic coating 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.
