1. Appearance and Fee
aludec provides the high-quality look of an aluminium shell, giving a perfect aluminium look with a pleasant feel. This combination of style and tactile experience enhances the aesthetic appeal of uPVC windows and doors
2. Scratch Resistance and Durability
The surface of aludec is designed with innovative scratch-resistant graining. This feature enhances its durability and maintains its appearance over time, resisting the wear and tear that can come from regular use or environmental factors.
3. Chemical and Heat Resistance
aludec has a PVDF coating, making it resistant to harsh chemicals, including graffiti. This coating also contributes to its ease of cleaning, as it can withstand water and mild detergents, as well as more robust cleaning agents without being damaged. Additionally, the foil is excellent at reflecting IR radiation, meaning it doesn't absorb much heat. This property is particularly beneficial in hot climates or areas with high solar radiation, as it keeps the windows dimensionally stable and minimises temperature changes.
4. Low Heat Absorption
The cool-colour technology and the three-layered system of the foil contribute to low heat absorption. This is especially advantageous for dark colours, which typically absorb more heat. In aludec, even these darker shades absorb less heat, making them suitable for use in regions with significant sun exposure and reducing the likelihood of closing or sealing problems due to temperature changes.
5. Variety of Finishes
aludec is available in seven aluminium finishes, including anthracite grey, jet black, granite grey, basalt grey, umbra grey, window grey, and traffic white. This range of options allows for customization and flexibility in design, catering to different architectural styles and personal preferences.
6. Suitability for Hot Climates
Given its low heat absorption and resistance to high temperatures, aludec is particularly suitable for Australia’s hot climatic conditions, ensuring the longevity and functional stability of the windows and doors it is used on.
