Hybrid Technology

This innovative combination of materials gives our profiles exceptionally superior features. They are three times lighter, four times more stable and eight times more rigid than WPC profiles. In addition, one single Geolam WHS profile can be bent to different radii and in different directions. Wood, on the other hand, has to be bent in the direction of the fiber only.

 
RECYCLED ALUMINUM (6063T5)
As core of the material, aluminum gives lightness and stability. The light metal allows safe and grid-free mounting options, which significantly expands the span between 2 fixations points.

COPOLYMER RESIN (BOUNDING LAYER)
In the triple extrusion process, the intermediate layer of copolymer resin inseparably merges the aluminum core with the outer layer. This resin is very strong and so firmly connected to the two materials that the hybrid profiles can be bent into different radii (smallest radius : 400 mm).

OUTER SKIN (THICKNESS: 1.2 MM)
The outer layer in WPC is available in many colors, but especially in different facing structures, too. The expansion of this hybrid material happens only in a very controlled way, even under extreme temperatures.
