Rehau has partnered with trade laminator Allied Profiles to offer a comprehensive selection of foiled component mouldings to complement its existing window ranges.

The mouldings are compatible with Total70, Rio Flush Fit and heritage systems. This new range of vacuum-foiled finishes has been specified to match all current foils also offered by Rehau, including traditional woods, more contemporary bold colours and regular white finishes.

Small details

Paul O’Sullivan, a director at Allied Profiles says: “When supplying a window, it’s often the smaller details such as end caps and sash horns that can be overlooked during the design process. However, these can really help provide the seamless finish that customers are looking for. We’ve worked with Rehau to use our vacuum laminating services to ensure a complete look across all window elements, to help bring a design together.

“Traditionally paint would be used to match these pieces to the rest of the window frame, yet duplicating a finish this way is difficult and can leave components subject to scratching or chipping. Our laminating technique, using Rehau’s pre-existing foils, ensures a clean wood-grained match every time, with a durable, easy to clean, scratch-proof finish.”

Formed to order

Each laminated moulding is formed to order, with a 15-day lead time, direct from the new Allied Profiles foiling plant in Wiltshire. The tailor-made method of manufacturing also allows for Rehau to offer the mouldings in its complete range of foils, as mass storage of the product does not have to be considered.

Russell Hand, head of product and technical at Rehau says: “With the updates to building regulations over the last few years, specifiers are understandably very focused on the technical elements of a product. However, the complete design of the window has proven to be a key element to consider in response to customer demand for aesthetics. Partnering with Allied Profiles has allowed us to provide specifiers with a streamlined way to acquire a matching finish across all components and offer their customers the full window package.”
