Chromatech Plus stainless steel profile has been designed by Rolltech to guarantee, says the company, excellent performance in IG. The strength of stainless steel makes Chromatech Plus an extremely stable profile with a long lifespan. These features make for an extremely stable frame which is a must-have in large-size, important IG glass. The thermal expansion coefficient (elongation) of a stainless steel profile is, in fact, extremely low and very similar to that of glass. As a result of these very properties, the sealants are subjected to less strain in insulating glass that uses Chromatech Plus when the outside temperature changes. The result is a more stable system, which, in turn, means that all risks are eliminated. Thanks to the use of stainless steel, Chromatech Plus significantly improves gas retention in IG units, thus maintaining the same levels of thermal performance over a long period of time. The design introduced by Rolltech for this profile is also unique. In fact, Chromatech Plus has a very special shape that allows the thickness of the metal to be slimmed up to 0.15mm, thus reducing the thickness of the steel and therefore guaranteeing an extremely low level of heat conduction, optimizing its performance compared to that of profiles made of the same material but with conventional shapes. Chromatech Plus offers a myriad of production benefits: profiles obtained from stainless steel can be bent; the stability of the profile allows for easier processing especially when large frames are involved; the special stainless steel offers excellent adhesion with all sealants. Glass Alliance is an organization that produces and distributes worldwide everything necessary for the industrial production of insulating glass units. It is made up of Fenzi, Alu Pro and Rolltech, three leading companies representing the state-of-the-art for quality and reliability in their respective sectors: polysulphur, butyl, hot melt and polyurethane sealants; aluminium spacer bars; steel, stainless steel and steel/polycarbonate spacer bars.
