3D Laminates claims its CoolSkin technology, now nine years old, has quite simply ‘revolutionised’ both the panel door and timber based composite door sectors, offering ‘incredible levels of surface performance’, whatever the weather.
Composite door companies including Endurance Doors and Solidor, reportedly specify CoolSkin for the vast majority of their respective door colours and woodgrains, with the reassurance of a 10-year warranty and testing across the ‘climatic extremes’ of Europe.
The product harnesses a specialist Veka substrate, along with a premium Cool Colors laminate foil from Hornschuch. With exclusive trading relationships with both companies, 3D Laminates maintains that the secret CoolSkin recipe cannot be replicated by any other company in the sector.
There are now eight different woodgrain finishes, along with nine solid colours and sheets can be mixed on rainbow pallets for ease of ordering. All of the laminate foils are said to be a ‘perfect replication’ of the foils used on PVC-U window profiles, making for a ‘far better finish’, when compared to a ‘poorly matching’ stained or embossed GRP skin.
Mark Lofthouse, managing director of 3D Laminates, commented: “Nine years ago we promised to revolutionise the panel door and solid core composite door sector with a far superior door skin. Today, I believe we have achieved that and the relatively recent introduction of a Veka substrate will improve the performance characteristics of CoolSkin further.”
He continued: “Whether you are a manufacturer or installation company, make sure you ask for a PVC-U door with CoolSkin technology, it’s the mark of a high quality PVC-U door that’s designed to last.”
