How ExtrudaSeal Can Help Fabricators Achieve Improved Weather Performance

For fabricators purchasing gaskets and extrusions for their windows and doors, a key attribute to consider is weather performance. Gaskets are there to protect windows and doors and offer effective sealing against weather effects such as temperature, sunlight, ozone and inclement conditions. At ExtrudaSeal we aim to deliver superior, cost-effective sealing solutions to suit fabricators’ timescales and needs. Here are some of the ways we can help achieve enhanced weather performance:

1

High quality gaskets

High quality gaskets

As a leading UK manufacturer of flexible extrusions, we have the experience and expertise to produce high performing, reliable gaskets to seal against even extreme weather conditions. Heat cycling from exposure to sunlight and higher temperatures is a problem for fabricators as it can accelerate permanent deformation in many gaskets. Equally, gaskets in colder temperatures are more prone to cracking and leaking, and ozone and UV exposure can additionally shorten a gasket’s lifespan. To combat the effects of weather we manufacture only the best sealing solutions in a range of rubbers, metals and foams. Using the latest processes and technologies, our gasket materials offer improved durability, resilience and compression to deal with changing weather and help fabricators provide long-lasting value to their products.

The ExtrudaSeal team can work with fabricators to meet their exact requirements. We can assist fabricators at every stage, from product design and development, material specification, design and production of tooling, through to the manufacture of finished products. This way fabricators can be sure that their chosen gaskets meet the specific weather sealing requirements of their products and we can achieve this efficiently, minimising waste and production times.

Advanced moulded corner gaskets

We know that the most vulnerable part of the gasket is at the corners, which could supply fabricators with problems with their windows and doors once they’ve been installed. Our unique moulded corner gaskets are capable of taking stress of handling, manufacturing, and installation without the potential of getting damaged, which could lead to air and water infiltration. Therefore our advanced sealing solutions can help fabricators avoid these potential problems further down the line completely, improving overall weather performance and increasing customer satisfaction.

Diverse weather performing sealing solutions

Unlike many other manufacturers, all of our gaskets can be manufactured from a choice of 1,000 RAL colours. Now that more PVC-u companies are venturing into using aluminium window and door frames, ExtrudaSeal gaskets can help fabricators make their product offer stand out whilst still offering high standard weather performance. Customers are more aware of the different available options than ever before and are increasingly style-conscious. By having their coloured gaskets manufactured with us, fabricators can give customers an exact match to their window and door frames and increase the value of their product ranges.
