New sliding system combines durability, quality and more

Architectural freedom for timeless results

As a leading developer and manufacturer of diverse polymer-based solutions for the construction, automotive and industrial sectors, REHAU strives for the highest level in terms of durability and quality. With SYNEGO SLIDE, the reinvented sliding system for windows and doors, this is proven once again. What's more, with the recently introduced invention REHAU manages to combine flexibility with modern technology, timeless elegance and measurable efficiency in a thoughtful manner. Koen Schepens, sales manager Window Solutions Benelux on behalf of REHAU, explains.

Offering sustainability is a matter of course for REHAU. The trait not only runs like a thread through all the products offered, the company also feels a sincere obligation to take full responsibility towards future generations. Within Window Solutions, one of the company's five divisions, this happens, among other things, in the form of the plastic profiles with the EcoPuls product label. A welcome solution that is currently already composed of 75 percent recycled material and stands for a positive ecological footprint. The recent introduction of SYNEGO SLIDE continues the line on the sustainability front. "With our innovative, sustainable products, we are making a positive contribution to the life of tomorrow," Schepens said. "In addition, each of them excels in quality, another important spearhead of our company."

Smart combination 

SYNEGO SLIDE makes seeing, feeling and experiencing a beautiful reality. First of all, the combination of unprecedented design freedom and a pleasant living environment ensures this. "The generous sliding system is characterized, among other things, by large glazed elements that form an organic connection between inside and outside as windows or doors," continues Schepens. "This is precisely what architects and planners benefit from directly. The flexible systems are the perfect basis for modern architectural possibilities and new room and living concepts, among other things because the windows and doors can be opened parallel to the wall." But it doesn't stop there. By bundling trendsetting technology with its extensive experience, REHAU has simultaneously developed a product that excels in terms of density, resilience, ease of operation, security (SKG2) and, above all, durability. With regard to the latter, for example, the all-round seal and the innovative locking mechanism work together perfectly and provide an arrangement with very high airtightness, excellent insulation values and excellent sound insulation. At the same time, the elements measuring up to 4 x 2.6 meters fit harmoniously into the design of any room and the high sliding comfort (both during opening and closing) ensures a pleasant living experience. 

Colors and surfaces

In terms of aesthetics and design freedom, the new sliding system also meets the highest standards, Schepens said. "When it comes to colors and surfaces, we offer more than 400 combination options with the KALEIDO COLOR range. So there is something for every desire or need. An all-round laminated rebate optionally ensures a flawless and even appearance. In addition, we extend our view of design, design freedom and sustainability to the so-called High-Definition-Finishing Technology, or HDF for short. This not only results in very smooth, dense profile surfaces, with over 2,000 different shades from the KALEIDO PAINT program, the color choice is enormous. And durability is also the magic word here. This is because the paints are produced CO2-neutrally, an initiative that has now been crowned with the Cradle-2-Cradle Silver certificate. In short, when you choose SYNEGO SLIDE, you choose unlimited creativity and a wide range of application possibilities. Classic white or black, warm wood motifs, a stylish aluminum look, glossy finishes, traditionally executed with foil or sprayed design: everything is possible."
