The
aluplast PVC-U compound is an ‘impact modified’
unplasticised rigid PVC extrusion compound having high
impact strength complying with BS7413:1991.
Impact
Strength
Profiles
extruded from aluplast PVC-U compound are outstanding
for their resistance to fracturing, which is particularly
evident at temperatures below 0°C.
Weather
Resistance and Colour Stability
aluplast
PVC-U profiles have outstanding weather resistance and
colour stability. These important characteristics have
been confirmed by more than twenty five years of actual
use.
aluplast
PVC-U profiles also possess high resistance to the various
pollutant effects of an industrial atmosphere.
Thermal
Performance
aluplast
PVC-U windows exceed the current requirements of the Building
Regulations concerning minimum U values.
Processability
aluplast
PVC-U compound is designed specifically for window profile
extrusion, to be ‘manufacture friendly’ and
ideally suited to the heat welding process.
