It's time to get acquainted with the advantages of the company's products:

  • Environmental friendliness and fire safety. Important factors that you should definitely pay attention to when choosing. Vinyl does not contain any toxic or toxic substances, it is absolutely safe for the health of the household and others.
  • A light weight. The low weight of the material greatly facilitates its transportation to the construction site, and also makes it easy to install on its own.
  • Compatibility. Alta-Profile siding is made in universal color and texture solutions that give endless possibilities for design. The material is perfectly combined with all kinds of finishes.
  • Resistance to chemical and mechanical stress. These features of the material largely determine its durability. With proper operation and timely care, it can serve for several decades.

If we talk about the disadvantages of this material, we can note a few nuances:

  • PVC does not burn, but it tends to melt.
  • At high temperatures, the material is able to slightly change its geometry, so its tight fixation to the batten is not recommended.
  • Low resistance to significant mechanical stress. These are vinyl panels. For decoration of the lower part of the structure (basement), the company produces front panels that are more thick and durable.

The main part of the advantages of panels derives from the unique process of their production.

The technology is based on the coextrusion method, and the panel itself consists of two layers. Internal provides the strength characteristics of the material, is responsible for the preservation of the geometry of the panel, does not allow it to stretch and deform. The outer part plays the role of protecting the lining.

The process of cladding the facade with Alta-Profile siding involves several steps:

  • Preparation of the working surface, cleaning from contamination (if necessary). Temporarily dismantled on the facade of the lattice, elements of the drainage system, and so on.
  • Installation of crates (wooden or metal). Reiki installed through 30-40 cm (or more), always at the corners of the building, around the window and door openings.
  • If you plan to insulate the facade, the installation of insulation occurs at this stage (including steam and waterproofing).
  • Installation of window and door trims, slopes.
  • The installation of the panels themselves begins with the starting plate, which is installed around the perimeter of the building.
  • Next is the installation of internal and external corner elements.
  • Fastening panels. The work proceeds in stages: first, trim one wall from left to right, then the next, and so on. The decoration of the facade ends with the fastening of the finishing strip.
  • Fixing the panel starts from the middle and further to the edges.The screw is not fully inserted into the panel hole (as mentioned above, plastic is prone to thermal distortion). It is better to choose stainless steel fasteners.
