Thermal break
Thermal insulation is essential to prevent heat loss and condensation. In aluminium profiles, this is achieved by incorporating a thermal break between the interior and exterior chambers of the profile.
This technique is mainly used in:
- Window systems
- Door systems
- Façade systems
The result? Improved energy efficiency, greater comfort, and reduced energy costs.
How does a thermal break work?
A thermal break consists of polymer strips that separate the inside and outside of the profile. This significantly reduces the thermal conductivity of aluminium, resulting in a higher insulation value (Uf‑value).
The most commonly used materials are:
Polyamide (glass fibre reinforced) – the industry standard
Noryl – for specific applications
Our Technology and Capabilities
At Aliplast Aluminium Extrusion, we are equipped with modern insulation machines that allow us to efficiently integrate thermal breaks into aluminium profiles.
We offer various finishing options (maximum length: 8.5 metres):
- Raw insulated
- Raw insulated and then coated
- Coated insulated (also available in bi‑colour)
- Anodised insulated
In addition, you can choose from a wide range of insulating strips, varying in shape and height, ensuring every profile fits your project perfectly.
