NEW METALLIC COMPOSITE FOILS

»»
3D LAMINATES HAVE just launched a range of nongrained , metallic foiled finishes for their long lasting CoolSkin ® door skins for composite and panelled doors , that will help fuel further design inspiration for the sector in 2018 and beyond .
These new foiled finishes have been developed in conjunction with Hornschuch , harnessing their impressive Cool Colors foil technology , which has proven to offer outstanding weathering properties in both hot and cold climates . First to be launched is Alux DB 703 which resembles a slate grey base colour , yet benefitting from flecks of metallic ink in this flat application development .
Within the range that has been inspired by aluminium in architecture , are also several other flecked foils and those with a brushed aluminium appearance , in various shades of grey and blue . Fundamentally important is the fact that 3D Laminates will also be able to supply a roll of matching foil for door profiles , that can easily be processed by the leading foiling companies that service the industry , or through existing stocks from the systems houses that support the UK market .

Stylish versatility

The Swish Flush Casement Window offers quintessentially British style . It has the trademark aesthetics of the traditional 19th-century window , but , as Gerald Allen , Swish ’ s Marketing Manager , points out , it isn ’ t only period homes that benefit from its charming aesthetics .
»»“ THANKS TO ITS understated simplicity , the Flush Casement Window is a design that has stood the test of time . For that reason , it ’ s just as at home in a contemporary modern home as it is a heritage setting .”
As Gerald says , the Flush Casement Window offers impressive versatility . Projects in contemporary settings benefit from its simple , clean lines while projects in heritage locations benefit from features such as the elegant glazing bars . And wherever the window is used the project will benefit from the quality and attention to detail of a Swish window .
The common Swish platform means installers can use beads from other systems to enable 24,28 and 32mm glazing for greater flexibility .
The Impressions colour range includes timeless and traditional shades and woodgrain effects as well as accent colours and ontrend shades .
