Through the years we have developed and tested many different frame designs. All in a quest to solve the four basic challenges inwindowdesign. Our development teamhas finally cracked the code by creating ground breaking frame design with an imperishable and highly insulating frame rebate in polyurethane - also known as thermal PUR. We have named the new solution ideal core™, because that is exactly what it is. An ideal core that unlike any other design on the market solves all four challenges at once. 1. Long lifespan Thermal PUR is an imperishable material. The compact rebate moulded from polyurethane will not deteriorate or break when being exposed to water collecting in the rebate. The window is designed for a lifespan of 70 years - provi- ded it is maintained as instructed in our manual. 2. Minimal heat loss Thermal PUR is a highly insulating material with a lam- bda value of just 0,074 W/mK. This ensures there will be no thermal bridging from the outside to the inside of the frame. Windows with ideal core™ therefore have an energy performance that comfortably exceeds building regulations and can be used for any type of build. 3. Easy to clean The Ideal core™ PUR rebate is solid and does not have any cavities which eliminates the need of any drainage holes. This means the the frame rebate has a smooth surface that is very easy to clean with a damp cloth and offers no shelter for bugs to nest in. 4. Does not need replacing Using an imperishable material in the frame rebate sig- nificantly extends the lifespan of windows and doors with ideal core™. It will therefore not be necessary to replace the frame that is fixed to the building. Other components such as sash, glass and ironmongery can be replaced as required. ideal core™. The window of the future Thermal PUR (polyurethane) is a synthetic resin in which the polymer units are linked by urethane groups. Polyurethane foams can be both soft and rigid and with different masses and properties. Today you will find PUR in a range of products such as; shoes, mattresses (ie. Tempur®), car seats, sports equipment and as insulation for pipes, refrigerators and building materials. Thermal PUR excels in many ways. It is strong, flexible, has a low weight and most impor- tantly PUR has excellent insulating properties. At the same time there is no health related risks associated with the use of PUR.
