37mm Thermal Struts Polyamide Insulation Profiles

Overview

Aluminium windows, doors and facades are a popular choice for many homeowners and commercial buildings around the world. Aluminium windows are popular for their slim sight lines, simple and modern look, very low maintenance and are very strong and corrosion resistant, which prevents them from rotting or warping. However, aluminium is not a natural insulator, which means that if your windows are made entirely of aluminium, the precious warmth in your home will be lost.

Aluminium is used extensively in the construction industry for the manufacture of profiles for windows, doors, facades and curtain wall systems. Aluminium frames are the ideal solution, giving you very strong windows and doors, which improves security and long-term durability, but they fall short in terms of thermal and acoustic insulation. The thermal conductivity of aluminium alloys is 160W/m2.K, which makes them very good conductors of heat. However, legislation and building codes in every country are becoming increasingly stringent in terms of energy efficiency. The aim is to reduce CO2 emissions and save energy. As aluminium is one of the best materials for making window and door frames, it is very much in demand by architects and engineers. To address this, thermal breakers are required. Thermal breakers, also called thermal struts or thermal barriers, are low thermal conductivity elements placed in an assembly to reduce or prevent the flow of thermal energy between conductive materials. The thermal insulation system consists of two separate aluminium profiles of similar or different shapes, connected by polyamide insulating profiles to obtain an integral profile with a low UV coefficient and low transmitted sound. This will minimize the heat transfer between the inside and outside of the aluminium doors and windows, thus improving energy savings better than traditional systems.

The thermal conductivity of polyamide thermal break profile is only 0.3W/M2.K, which is 533 times lower than aluminium, making it the perfect insulating material for thermal insulation aluminium systems. Not only that, the expansion and contraction coefficients of polyamide are very similar to those of aluminium. Polyamide thermal break strips can effectively reduce internal aluminium frame stress and will not separate during many years of seasonal cold and hot cycles, and water and air will not penetrate this superior thermal barrier.

Wuhan Yuanfa New Materials Co., Ltd. has been committed to providing thermal insulation solutions for more than two decades, and its high-performance polyamide thermal insulating strips for thermal insulation aluminium frames play an important role in improving the thermal energy efficiency of buildings around the world. Ensuring sustainability is at the core of what we do. For more than 20 years, Wuhan Yuanfa's innovative, high-precision polyamide 66 insulating profiles for aluminium doors, windows, facades and curtain wall systems have helped millions of homes significantly improve quality and comfort while saving energy and reducing global CO2 emissions. We are able to extrude wide and complex polyamide profiles that most extruders cannot. Our unique high-precision extrusion process allows us to form the most complex thermoplastic profiles. Just give us a blueprint and we will design and produce it for you immediately. Wuhan Yuanfa's high-efficiency polyamide insulating profiles set new standards in thermal separation, achieve excellent U-values, and are the first choice for low-energy and passive buildings.
