Creating a splash

The latest colour laminates and spray finishes from Rehau are opening up a whole new world of possibilities for installers looking for exciting, innovative options for PVC-U window and door installations.

South Wales based windows and door fabricators GRM recently completed its first ever Midnight Black installation at a private home in Bridgend. The new colour was first launched by Rehau at this year’s (2017) FIT Show.

Rehau say the advantage of using Acryl II to colour the windows is that every aspect of the window can be painted including the ancillary elements, like the handles, trickle vents and inside the gaskets, plus the inside of the windows which would normally be left as white, even with a laminate on the external profile.

Richard Gambling, managing director at GRM said: “Colour finishes for PVC-U is one of the most exciting things to happen to the glazing industry, and with consumer demand on the up, there is huge scope for this to develop further in the future.

“We may have moved away from timber windows, but people still like the idea of being able to paint their windows in the shade or colour that they like and with the REHAU technology we have, we can offer that service to anyone getting new PVC-U windows fitted.”
