Smart, durable and colorful
During Polyclose, the first large-scale trade fair of 2024, GEALAN will come up with an impressive presentation. From Wednesday, January 17 to Friday, January 19, the leading manufacturer of plastic profiles for doors and frames will show the professional market in Ghent where the continuous innovation and further development of profile systems is all leading. Mark Beukert, head of sales at GEALAN Fenster-Systeme GmbH, looks ahead.
Since its inception in 1991, Polyclose has become the largest trade fair in the Benelux in the field of window, door and façade technology, among others. During the event, the most important players on the European market display their expertise. Polyclose is therefore the meeting place for professionals who want to keep up with the latest developments and innovations. For example, those of GEALAN. "After being absent for several years due to covid, we are very much looking forward to presenting ourselves again at Polyclose and inspiring the thousands of fair visitors," said Beukert. "Of course we will introduce the public to our high-quality products and smart solutions. But we also like to tell more about our circular production process and the way sustainability runs like a thread through our operations."
Inside GEALAN's booth (Hall 2, Booth 1210) there is plenty to experience in mid-January. For example, the company is presenting S 9000 NL reno, the profile specially developed for construction professionals focusing on (large-scale) renovation projects. "This frame system is the perfect solution for renovating entire residential areas quickly and tightly," says Beukert. "Because this system can be mounted over existing window frames, you can save considerable time during assembly and finishing. In addition, the application of S 9000 NL reno results in significantly less waste and any asbestos removal is unnecessary in many cases."
The showpiece at the GEALAN booth is the coloring technique GEALAN-acrylcolor®, a combination of acrylic glass and PVC created by co-extrusion. Thanks to this specific production process, GEALAN makes it possible to design facades in many (trend) colors. In addition to various standard shades, six exclusive metallic colors are also available. "Over 40 years of further development of unique color technologies has led to a technique that makes plastic window frames even more beautiful and durable. Besides an attractive appearance, this product offers the necessary practical advantages. It is durable, insensitive to dirt, easy to clean, color stable and weather and light resistant," Beukert lists.
GEALAN's development drive in the field of color coatings led, among other things, to the popular dark profile presented on the market last September. The advanced polymer formulations of GEALAN-acrylcolor® prevent this profile variant from heating up in the sun and distorting the plastic. Beukert: "We are continuously working on the color palette of GEALAN-acrylcolor® optimize, expand and adapt to market trends. This profile, a product with a very stylish and chic look, is a great example of that. At Polyclose we will show the different combinations, with a choice of three dark colors on the outside and six dark foils on the inside."
