Quality windows

Security
Complete break-in protection system
Protection and security are two fundamental human requirements. If you want to feel secure within your own four walls, you can't
leave anything up to chance. You should go by the motto “Trust may be a good thing, but control is better” and insist on a window
construction that inhibits break-ins because fifty percent of all burglars get in through the window, not the door. They simply lever out
the window in a matter of seconds, but you can prevent this by choosing windows that inhibit break-ins. With windows made of GEALAN
profiles, the installation depth and enhanced material strength are convincing security arguments, along with additional barriers and
secure screw fittings in the window frames and casements. To be completely on the safe side, we put our windows to the acid test. An
authorized test institute has certified that our windows offer security in regard to their construction and various opening mechanisms
in all intended areas of application. You can be sure of that.

Thermal insulation
Noise Protection
Warm, comfortable and efficient
For a better quality of life
Windows made of GEALAN profiles are the ideal energy savers
because even the natural insulating properties of PVC guarantee
outstanding thermal insulation. These qualities are enhanced even
more by the extended installation depth of up to 83 mm and the multichamber profile construction with up to 6 chambers. With windows
made of GEALAN profile systems, you save a lot of money and
considerably improve living comfort while making a significant
contribution to environmental protection at the same time.
Too much noise damages your health. That's why noise protection
and sound insulation have become an important health aspect.
Windows made of GEALAN profiles with multi-chamber technology
provide effective protection against excessive noise. With the
corresponding glazing, they have good sound insulation properties.
In this way, windows made of GEALAN profiles considerably improve
noise protection and sound insulation, thus enhancing your quality
of life.
The main sources of noise include urban road transport,
manufacturing enterprises and railroads crossing urban area. Most
of noise is emitted by major highways, in the vicinity of which
noise levels reach 80 dB during the daytime. According to
sanitary standards, the noise level in residential areas must not
exceed 40 dB during the day and must not be greater than 30 dB
at night. It is just the sound volume values produced when we talk
quietly. In a city center, in busy main streets, the noise level may be
as high as 90 dB. Owing to the construction features of GEALAN
profile systems, these windows meet highest sound insulation
requirements.
Windows made of GEALAN profiles with a sound insulating glass
pane will ensure comfort and coziness and will allow you to sleep
peacefully even if trains run or airplanes fly close to your home.
Levels of noise emitted by vehicles:
Motorcycle – up to 70 dB
Car – up to 75 dB
Truck – up to 90 dB
Aircraft – up to 140 dB

S 8000 Quality without compromise
Facts and advantages
In the system S 8000, you can select from 5 or 6-chamber profiles. Their
construction allows the use of large-sized steel reinforcement, which ensures
excellent stability and strength complying with the requirements for
construction objects with large window structures. The number and position
of the chambers determines enhanced resistance to thermal conductivity
and improves sound insulation performance. The wide surface of the
profile facilitates the maintenance of the window.

Windows and doors are prominent details of the interior and exterior of your home, so they not only should meet the strict technical requirements, but
also simply look good. The attractiveness of a window mainly depends on the shape and color of the window profile. S 8000 is an example of a
classic system and is remarkable for its bright classic lines and rounded contours. The variety of glazing beads and a wide choice of profile colors will
allow the implementation of even the most sophisticated architectural and design projects.

S 8000 front doors
Strong and attractive label of the house
Beautiful front doors are justly considered the business card of the house and expression of its architectural style. The doors provide the façade with its
original style, while they must also be strong and secure, and resistant to environmental impacts. In order to achieve the highest S 8000 system door
strength and stability performance, the company GEALAN designed the inner partitions of the profile in such a manner that it became possible to use
wide-profile reinforcement. 74 mm wide profile middle partitions and their position allowed increasing the rigidity of the applied steel fittings by 30 %. A
cavity for lock is milled in the reinforcement. The threshold holders used in other GEALAN systems are also suitable for the system S 8000 Iand ensure a
solid connection between the frame and the threshold. In order to avoid deviations of the sash and to ensure the stability of angles, welded joint angles are
used. The wide range of component parts allows to produce doors of different configurations and types. You can use a variety of hardware and locks as
well as a variety of door sash panels. They can be opened in both outward and inward direction. Door sashes are manufactured not only from white but also
from ACRYLCOLOR profiles, as well as from the profiles with wood décor and colored film texture.

Reliable burglary protection
PVC door threshold 20 mm in height, the impact-resistant door threshold of PVC
perfectly meets the modern concept of threshold-free housing
construction designed for handicapped people. Such a threshold is
the finishing touch of the general system of GEALAN thresholds
of aluminium, aluminium with a heat insulating gasket, and
durable glass fiber with high thermal transmittance resistance
indicators. The low thermal transmittance level of the PVC material
ensures excellent thermal transmittance performance of the
threshold made of it, thus reliably protecting the lower door part
from heat loss.
S 8000 lift/slide doors
Light and comfort
Elegant lift/slide doors with the S 8000 system are an excellent solution to create interfaces between rooms and patios, balconies or gardens. But GEALAN
lift/slide doors can do even more. Their special construction means there are no limits to your use of space. When you open the door, it is a simple lift and slide
away action for its panel. The panels and frames are well reinforced, which makes our doors very stable. Their 74 mm profile mounting depth and fourchamber geometry mean excellent thermal insulation at the profile level. Triple glazing of up to 44 mm ensures an excellent thermal insulation rate for the
door. Tests by Rozenheim Institute for Window Technology prove that our doors ensure the best air-tightness and water-tightness.
Available décor
The special mechanism of GEALAN
lift/slide S 8000 doors is very easy to
control. The almost flush threshold
removes a visual barrier between the
indoor and outdoor spaces.
Colours are very important for large windows and doors. In addition
to white, GEALAN lift/slide doors are, therefore, available in a wide
range of ACRYLCOLOR tones, and also with wood décors in various
patterns. Another option is facing aluminium shell skirting suitable
for lift/slide doors in various colours.

GEALAN-FUTURA® is the individual profile combination in the S 9000 system. It offers the option of building passive
house-compatible window elements in colour in accordance with the ift directive WA-15/2 using standard profiles
and standard 2 mm steel bracing elements. The tested Uf value of 0.89 W/m²K confirms the outstanding basic
thermal insulation properties. Using GEALAN-FUTURA®, maximum sash dimensions of up to 2.40 m are possible
when using the STV® adhesion technology.
Weighty arguments
The new GEALAN S 9000 triple sealing profile
system brings together the advantages of middle
seal and rebate seal systems. A large construction
depth of as much as 82,5 mm, 6 chambers inside
sash and frame profiles and 3 levels of gaskets
ensure an even better thermal and sound
insulation. The windows made of the profiles of
such system are in conformity with the
requirements of energy-efficient windows.
Integrated STV® technology
STV® from GEALAN offers window builders the
opportunity to economically and cost-efficiently
produce windows with bonded panes. Standard
elements can therefore be manufactured entirely
without steel. Construction of normal-sized
elements can be done completely without
conventional steel reinforcements. This can
improve U-values by up to 0.2 W/m²K, depending
upon the profile.
Integrated IKD® technology
Everywhere that steel reinforcement is otherwise
used, with intensive core insulation (IKD®) the
stiffener chamber in the profile is filled with a
special high-insulation material. This technology
can primarily be used to achieve excellent
thermal insulation values. In conjunction with
STV® technology, elements in common sizes can
be built entirely without steel reinforcements. The
weight and costs are therefore reduced and
installation is made easier.

STV®- the innovation for bonding panes Innovative and simple
The bonding technology developed by GEALAN – STV® (static dry glazing) – involves bonding glass and profiles with an extra adhesive tape
designed for window construction whilst retaining the usual block setting of the glass. By bonding the pane with the profile, the stiffness of the glass
pane is transferred to the profile and the entire system becomes more stable in itself. Standard elements can therefore be manufactured entirely
without steel reinforcement. Alternatively, more stable elements can be manufactured in conjunction with steel and GEALAN's STV®. In addition,
in the area of special constructions, it is possible to considerably improve the stiffness of round arches and inclined windows.

Thanks to STV® the static dry glazing
The STV® adhesion technology (static dry glazing) developed by GEALAN comprises the glueing of glass and sash profile while maintaining the
usual use of glazing blocks. For this, a high-performance adhesive tape specifically designed for window construction is used. By glueing the glass
to the sash profile, the stability of the glass window is transferred into the sash and the entire system becomes more intrinsically stable. This way,
elements can be produced in standard sizes without using any steel. In the combination STV® with steel in the sash, particularly large
window elements can be produced.
+ The combination of STV® technology and traditional steel
reinforcement allows for producing unprecedented
element sizes.
+ Time-consuming adjustment and re-adjustment work on the
window can be minimised.
+ Enhanced thermal insulation by relinquishing the steel bracing
element for normal-size elements.

IKD®- intensive core insulation
Insulating core instead of steel
GEALAN STV® technology opens new opportunities for the improvement of thermal and sound insulation performance of window systems.
Standard window elements can be used without steel reinforcement in the main inner profile chamber; therefore, there appears a possibility to
fill the free main profile chamber with the specially developed polyurethane filler PUR (GEALAN-IKD® technology) which provides a very high
resistance of the window to thermal transmittance. Everywhere that cold steel is otherwise used, with intensive core insulation (GEALAN-IKD®)
the stiffener chamber in the profile is filled with a high-insulation special material. This technology can primarily be used to achieve excellent
thermal insulation values. The intensive core insulation from GEALAN offers window manufacturers the opportunity to – for the first time
ever – economically and cost-efficiently produce windows that satisfy extreme thermal protection requirements. The profiles are supplied
already with the foam filling.
+ Enhanced thermal insulation. Foam with thermal insulation
properties inside the profile improves the thermal insulation rates.
+ Better break-in protection. Hardened foam core inside the profile
and full adhesive bonding between casement and pane improve
break-in protection.
+ Simple recycling. The foam injected into the IKD® profile is easy to
remove and is fully recyclable.
+ No extra investment. Windows from IKD® profiles can be
manufactured as usual and there is no need to invest into new
machines or other tools. IKD® profiles are delivered pre-injected
with the special foam and can be immediately used in window
manufacturing.
+ Proved system quality. At all manufacturing stages of IKD®
profiles, the durability of their structures is subjected to consistent
tests in accordance with RAL and EN standards using state-ofthe-art testing facilities, and meets top quality requirements for
GEALAN profile systems.
GEALAN-FUTURA® profiles with standard 2 mm steel reinforcements
are available for coloured window and door structures suitable for
passive houses.
18
Increased thermal insulation More comfort, lower costs
Intensive core
insulation
GEALAN IKD® technology means the profile chamber is filled with PUR foam that ensures thermal insulation. This successful technology, which has
been around for some time, enhances the thermal insulation properties both of profiles and of any structures they are used to assemble. The
profile chamber filled with foam and no steel elements prevents convection, and the profile's surface temperature goes considerably up, too.
GEALAN IKD® profiles are delivered pre-injected with thermal insulation foam. With STV® and IKD® technologies, normal-sized elements can be
manufactured without steel reinforcements. This ensures an improvement of up to 0.2 W/m²K in the thermal transmittance rates of the
window (depending on the profile combination). The main chamber of the casement profile filled with insulating foam can bring the rates down
to Uf < 0.95 W/m²K. Windows with IKD® and energy-efficient glazing (Ug = 0.5 W/m2K, assembled with the heat-tight SWISSPACER ULTIMATE
spacer bar) achieve a thermal transmittance coefficient of Uw = 0.72 W/m2K. Such window assemblies meet the standards for passive houses.

ACRYLCOLOR
Long live colours!
Coloured windows are a special distinguishing feature that forms unique images of buildings. Coloured window profiles allow the implementation of
even unusual design projects and take into account regional architectural features. The palette of shades meets the most demanding needs: you
can choose the most suitable colour ranging from noble white to luxurious silver. The high quality standard of ACRYLCOLOR is approved by the RAL
quality mark. We manufacture coloured profiles under a specific co-extrusion technology in whose production process the white PVC core is fused
with coloured acrylic layer. The outer coloured acrylic layer is resistant to mechanical damage and the negative effects of the atmosphere. The silky
unglossy layer is non-porous, so it does not collect dust and dirt, it does not peel, scale, and does not require painting. ACRYLCOLOR windows are
easy to maintain. ACRYLCOLOR windows do not fade and you will not notice any changes in the colour for decades.

Unique technology
Unique surface structure
During the dyeing procedure of co-extrusion, the white PVC base bodies and the dyed acrylic glass are inseparably bonded with one another in a
single work step. Fusing both of these materials produces a semi-matt, dyed external profile surface that withstands the effects of the weather with
ease. GEALAN has been producing its ACRYLCOLOR profiles in the co-extrusion procedure for almost 30 years. GEALAN is setting standards by using
this procedure, because it is essentially very different from the otherwise conventional dyeing procedures. Windows featuring ACRYLCOLOR profiles
also satisfy the most stringent technical and functional requirements. The external dyed layer of acrylic glass is twice as hard as the PVC surface
of white windows. It is highly scratch-resistant and is to a great extent resistant to the effects of the weather. The semi-matt, smooth and nonporous surface is insensitive to dust and dirt accumulating. There is no need for spalling, chipping and laborious subsequent coating.
ACRYLCOLOR windows require virtually no maintenance and are extremely easy to care for.
Co-extrusion procedure High reflection possibility
During the co-extrusion procedure, the white PVC base bodies and
the dyed acrylic glass (PMMA) are inseparably fused with one
another. Acrylic glass is a high-quality product, which has proven its
qualities in industrial sectors such as the automotive industry (taillights) and interior design. The plastic profile acts as a carrier
material, while the thin layer of acrylic glass secures the profiles'
colouring.
The acryl layer is permeable to sun rays, so the core white profile
reflects a major part of sun rays penetrating the acryl layer. Owing to
this feature, the coloured profile heats up similarly to a white one.

supply the materials to closed PVC material recycling subject to
prohibited landfilling. Since the high-quality PVC product – the
thermoplastic material is made of the natural raw materials natural oil
or natural gas and common salt – is way too precious to be disposed
of with the waste or in a waste incineration plant. Through its 100
percent recyclability, it absolutely lends itself for recycling. Even the
PVC of removed old windows can be granulated and reconditioned.
This way, PVC becomes one of the most recyclable materials.
GECCO ventilation systems Air Watch
In order to prevent the formation of mildew in rooms, there is the automatic ventilation system GECCO (GEALAN CLIMA CONTROL).
The small flap with huge effects turns normal windows into “air-conditioning windows”. At low wind pressures, the ventilation
flap is open and closes the air duct in the event of higher wind speeds.
Even if the patented GECCO
ventilation system provides for
controlled basic ventilation,
regular airing is indispensable.
Therefore, the inside air must be
changed entirely from time to
time. GEALAN’s Air Watch
indicates its moisture content
in a simple manner.
