Different countries, different customs – that which is true of one’s way of life is also reflected in domestic culture. The same applies to architectural design. As an international system provider, REHAU provides tailor-made solutions for window specialists in Germany and countries around the world. All of these solutions have one thing in common: they offer exceptional brand quality with excellent functional properties and impressive ease of installation.
The energetic apex: REHAU Nordic Design Plus for Scandinavia and Northern Germany
With a Uf-value of 1.1 W/m²K in the standard design and 1.0 W/m²K with the optional center seal, Nordic Design Plus is the best plastic window profile system for energy efficiency which is currently available on the outward-opening window market. Used for the first time in the GENEO line, the application of the high-tech material RAU-FIPRO in Nordic Design Plus provides maximum stability, torsional rigidity and good structural properties that otherwise would not be possible without steel. Furthermore, specially developed seal geometries and modern fitting technology make it much easier to open and close the elements.
All types of outward openings are possible, including top-hung, top-turn, top-swing, side-hung and side-swing. All conventional design elements – stylized posts, glazing bars, glazing beads and hook fittings of the type popular in Scandinavia – can be implemented in a style typical of the country in question. Individual shapes such as round windows, triangular windows and slanted options can also be achieved thanks to the fully reinforced high-tech material RAU-FIPRO.
Windows with character from the Netherlands
The Character Design 70 window system was developed especially to meet the requirements of the Dutch market. Two prominent features are the frame depth of 115 millimeters and the sash depth of 70 millimeters. High-volume steel-based profile reinforcements allow for the construction of large-scale window elements with excellent stability. Inward-opening and outward-opening sashes can be combined in a single element using special alternating posts. Furthermore, a special check rail profile maintains the visual impression of a vertical sliding window.
Marking the latest addition to the trusted Character Design Line, the new BLOX profile is a rectangular frame profile. It combines the appearance of a traditional wooden window with all the benefits of a cutting-edge plastic window. The profile matches a real wooden window in terms of appearance, stability and quality, and is also weather-resistant and easy to maintain. As well as the classic beige, steel blue and moss green tones, REHAU has a wide range of colours and shapes on offer.
High-performance window profiles from France: NEFERIA
The high-performance material RAU-FIPRO has established itself on the French market through the NEFERIA window profile system. With a depth of 70 millimeters and featuring seven chambers, the system offers maximum energy efficiency. Thanks to RAU-FIPRO and the three sealing layers, the center-seal system is able to achieve a Uf value of up to 1.0 W/m²K. NEFERIA is also visually appealing: The concealed sashes, streamlined facing widths and complete REHAU color range combine to create an exceptional, colorful design. The system is suitable for both new and old buildings and has the right frames for every installation scenario.
CALISTHΩ is REHAU’s new interior roller-shutter system, which can be mounted on any window system from inside the building in just one step using a single assembly section. Its curved design, high-quality processing and technical specifications are highly impressive. For example, the system is able to achieve a thermal insulation value of up to 0.731 W/m²K depending on the cabinet’s configuration and a C4 rating for airtightness (which is higher than the current C3 standard). CALISTHΩ can be installed in new buildings or as part of renovation work on older structures and is available in three different sizes. Different drive systems are also available, including a crank profile, belt, electric motor or direct drive. With over 150 colors and replaceable end caps, there are countless design options. Furthermore, 30 percent less time is required for assembly than for conventional cabinets, thereby leading to a reduction in costs.
Multi-sash windows for Switzerland
Two-sash and multi-sash windows are highly popular on the Swiss market. The SYNEGO window profile system is the best equipped to meet this demand. The narrow Z51 secondary sash is primarily used to guarantee optimum lighting. Due to the wide range of installation scenarios in Switzerland, SYNEGO is available in six different construction heights. This system also enables REHAU to provide special solutions for old buildings requiring renovations. As an example, the SYNEGO adapter profile is the ideal solution for bridging shallow installation depths of 56 millimeters or less. Whether painted in various colors, laminated with foil or refined with aluminum, SYNEGO is the source of a virtually unlimited number of solutions. Furthermore, MINERGIE pre-certification (a Swiss quality label) is currently being prepared for the system.
Excellent sound included – SYNEGO with New Living Sound in Italy
In Italy, SYNEGO is more than just a window – it can also be turned into a speaker, thanks to New Living Sound, a patented technology developed by the Italian company HST. This technology uses flat structures to play back music, messages, vocal tones and sounds using piezoelectric actuators. The elements are the size of a postage stamp, meaning that they do not disrupt the aesthetic of the window while simultaneously turning the available surfaces of the windows or roller-shutter holders into speakers. This new, versatile and intelligent system can be connected to any device via Bluetooth or analog output in order to reproduce music with exceptional sound quality.
REHAU Heritage sliding window system from the UK
The REHAU Heritage vertical slider perfectly replicates the sightlines and design features of the traditional timber box sash. Renowned for being the most authentic looking PVC-U sash window on the market, even close up, it can be hard to tell the difference.
What makes this window so popular not just in the UK and Ireland, but in a growing number of international markets as far afield as South Africa, India and Australia, is the fact that it offers all of the thermal efficiency and low maintenance benefits of PVC-U without any compromises on design detailing. Mechanical jointing, a deep bottom rail, run through sash horns and authentic looking Astragal bars all help to set our vertical slider apart from the rest.
The REHAU Heritage system is approved for installation in many of the UK’s historic conservation areas and even in some Grade II listed buildings, and is used extensively in both refurbishment projects to replace timber originals and in new builds where the emphasis is on quality and tradition.
Design variety from Asia with REHAU Premium Plus
The new REHAU Premium Plus from Asia offers extensive design variety across various systems. High-grade laminating films turn windows into a true focal point of a room. Base bodies in a range of colors and a brushed metallic co-extrusion top layer on the outside are another visual highlight. Overall, this wide variety of design options is the ideal way to turn “standard” plastic windows into lifestyle products that suit any residence.
New 60-mm system from Russia
The BLITZ New window system has been developed especially for the Russian market. The new 60-millimeter system is extremely cost-effective due to technical solutions such as changes to the manner of rebate construction, fitting groove and ergonomic profile overlap. Its ergonomic design and lamination options in different colors make BLITZ New the perfect addition to any interior. Considering its high energy efficiency and performance values, the system is poised to take a leading position on the Russian market.
A broad range of profiles from America
REHAU is pleased to offer two new window profile systems for the North American market. REHAU ÄSPEKT can be installed up to 55 percent quicker than aluminum systems and boasts impressive thermal insulation and impermeability values thanks to three all-round seals. This product is also airtight and soundproof, thereby offering a high level of living comfort. The new REHAU 1030 window system for new buildings and renovated residential homes has an extremely narrow facing width to allow for large glass surfaces and excellent lighting. It is also available in various weather-resistant colors and wood decors, thereby offering maximum design and application options.
Developed for the South American market, the High-Design Slide sliding door system meets the need for large glass surfaces in modern architecture. The new system enables elements of up to 2.7 meters in height and up to six sliding elements to be installed. Good sound insulation values, airtightness, thermal insulation and durability all combine to make the High-Design Slide an ideal solution.
