Rigid PVC withstands high heat and provides outdoor durability with darker colors
AuroraTec™ exterior weatherable rigid PVC compounds are built tough and are the perfect choice for building and construction applications. They meet AAMA (American Architectural Manufacturers Association) standards for outdoor performance, and are used in applications such as patio doors, windows, siding, decking, railing, wall and ceiling panels, pool and spa, and many others.
Some of the performance benefits of AuroraTec™ rigid PVC compounds include:
- Low-maintenance
- Excellent weatherability, even in darker colors
- High impact resistance
- Good toughness/stiffness balance
- Excellent balance of resistance to UV degradation and long-term performance
- Superior fire resistance compared with other thermoplastics alternatives.
- Low coefficient of linear thermal expansion allows a broader design range in multiple applications
- Strong and light weight
Engineered for longevity and weatherability in darker colors
AuroraTec rigid PVC enables high-quality, impact- and UV-resistant building materials like doors, windows, fencing and more. Engineered for strength and designed for unparalleled outdoor performance, our rigid PVCs impart excellent weatherability, even when your application uses today’s popular dark colors, AuroraTec compounds are designed not to warp, even under the elevated temperatures caused by the sun’s infrared light.
