GUTMANN DECCO ARTEVO powered by Rehau
Today we would like to inform you about the market launch of the PVCu-aluminium system DECCO ARTEVO powered by Rehau.
Things are subject to constant change, including PVCu window profiles. The company Rehau presented its newest, innovative PVCu window system ARTEVO, made of RAU-FIPRO X material, this year at Fensterbau Frontale in Nuremberg.
Developed at REHAU in 2008 as a bold vision, the plastic fibreglass material is now a success story that has revolutionized the window market: Inspired by motor racing and aircraft construction, RAU-FIPRO X redefined and continues to redefine the limits of what is feasible in terms of window size. This material makes window sizes possible that were previously reserved for aluminium. By using the material exclusively in the profile core, a particularly resource- saving profile system has also been developed. ARTEVO is Rehaus‘ promise to the future in terms of sustainability and scores points across the board with numerous other advantages, such as energy efficiency, straight lines, a wide range of design options and outstanding properties in terms of sound insulation and burglary protection.
Today, many people focus on individuality and self-realization. GUTMANN in Weissenburg has now adapted its well-established DECCO system to the new Rehau ARTEVO profile to suit customers who want to enjoy the benefits of PVCu windows but also have the highest standards of architectural design. The edged look of the PVCu system from Rehau, which is also continued in the aluminium facing shell, is particularly noteworthy.
The PVCu-aluminium systems from GUTMANN are characterized in particular by their versatility in design and application. They are used both in new building projects and for later installation. Thanks to their simple installation, they can be adapted to almost any standard PVCu window on the market and not only upgrade its appearance. Windows with aluminium systems from GUTMANN are durable and retain their outstanding functionality and high-quality appearance even after decades of intensive use.

The DECCO ARTEVO PVCu/aluminium system is specially designed to absorb the different temperatures caused by sunlight by using clip holders. Dark shades on the outside in particular heat up more than light colors and can lead to uneven expansion. The combination of plastic and aluminium minimizes this effect, resulting in improved stability and durability of the construction. The end-coupled mounting of the aluminium profiles using clip profiles and holders also counteracts temperature-related linear expansion.
With the perfectly tailored aluminium cover, there are virtually
no limits to the design. Whether powder-coated or anodized, GUTMANN DECCO ARTEVO powered by REHAU adapts to any colour concept. The entire GUTMANN color spectrum from RAL and NCS is available, as well as decorative and special colors (www.gutmann-farbenwelt.de).
Installation is extremely simple: DECCO is available fully prefabricated on request to fit the existing PVCu window. The DECCO frame arrives at the place of further use as a welded or plugged version with the previously defined surface coating. Here, the aluminium profiles can be easily applied using the established cold welding process patented by GUTMANN. Alternatively, the newly introduced screw or impact clips from GUTMANN can be used for a secure connection.
Welded corner connections of the aluminium cover shell offer numerous advantages, such as an even distribution of loads, a high-quality and professional appearance and improved durability compared to other connection methods. They also enable easy assembly and disassembly, reduce the risk of leaks and damage, offer a precise fit, optimum heat conduction, high load-bearing capacity and are resistant to corrosion. Overall, welded corners contribute to an aesthetic appearance and a durable construction. The design is also easy to clean, which makes maintenance easier.
GUTMANN DECCO ARTEVO gives windows an individual look and also protects the PVCu profile from the effects of weather and UV radiation, thus extending its service life.
GUTMANN is pleased to be able to offer this all-round carefree package for the highest demands with immediate effect.
