GEALAN-acrylcolor®
The durable surface
GEALAN-acrylcolor® is a premium surface made of PMMA. It not only gives plastic profiles colour and an elegant look, but also enhances them with functional advantages. Windows with a better surface are scratch-resistant, insensitive to dirt and withstand even strong weather conditions. In this way, they extend the already long service life of PVC windows even further. Get to know the technology, which we have been constantly developing for 40 years, and its many advantages!

Advantages of GEALAN-acrylcolor®
Durable
The bond between PVC and PMMA is inseparable. In this way, it also permanently prevents the paint layer from peeling off or chipping.
Scratch resistant
The hard, sensitive acrylic layer makes windows with GEALAN-acrylcolor® resistant and robust.
Weatherproof
Even in extreme climatic conditions, the texture of the surface is maintained for decades.
Lightfast
The PMMA surface is lightfast for decades. Even in strong sunlight, the color of the profiles remains unchanged.
Strong
Compared to paints, the acrylic surface offers enough material reserve to easily polish out small scratches.
Dirt-resistant
The homogeneous surface looks elegant thanks to its brush effect and remains permanently insensitive to dirt.
About the manufacturing process
The principle of coextrusion
In the coextrusion process, we fuse two materials: the white PVC base body with PMMA. PMMA is better known as acrylic glass and is also used in other areas such as vehicle construction or interior design due to its high-quality properties. The thin layer of Plexiglas gives the plastic profiles the individually desired colour and preserves it in the long term.
There is also another possibility. In the tri-extrusion process, recyclate can also be added as a third material in addition to virgin PVC and PMMA. This is how we manufacture our usual high-quality profiles with a recycled core and GEALAN-acrylcolor®.
Unique surface structure
Brushing the acrylic layer creates not only a uniform surface appearance but also a noble, silky matt sheen on the surface. This high-quality finish is unique in the market of colored windows.
GEALAN-acrylcolor® - special colour programmes
In addition to the colours in the standard, extended or special range, there are two further options for the colour design of GEALAN-acrylcolor®. At GEALAN, we offer exclusive metallic colours and create the basis for completely dark window profiles with the dark base body.

ReVINGIS is an ambitious construction project: it is transforming a former industrial site in Vilnius into a completely new city district. Buildings are being constructed for living, culture and entertainment, commercial and office space - in several blocks, connected by paths: a city within the city and one of the largest private investments in the history of the Lithuanian capital.

A cruise ship on land - the association is no coincidence with Scheveningen's new eye-catcher: Het Boegbeeld, which means ‘the figurehead’, is an apartment complex with 121 flats on six floors directly on Scheveningen harbour, which plays with elements of ship architecture in its appearance.
