Extruded Pile Weatherseal – The next generation

The most significant development in decades for Pile Weatherseal has been the introduction of Extruded Pile.

Why extruded pile?

Have you ever experienced quality issues with your current woven pile product?

• Off centre?
• Backing too thick?
• Slitting or backing width variations?

These are common problems. They occur in the manufacturing process and are only identified when you the fabricator try to insert them into your extrusions. Even the best quality systems cannot pick up all of these faults and ultimately this can lead to serious down time issues while you await replacement product.

The manufacturing processes developed in the production of Extruded Pile significantly reduce and virtually eliminate the faults commonly associated with Woven Pile products. Extruded Pile Seals are the benchmark for use in on line insertion machines particularly the push-through type models. Traditional woven pile seals do not work well or even at all with these types of machines.

Phenix Innovation offers a comprehensive range of Woven Pile and Extruded Pile Weatherseals commonly used in the Fenestration Industry. Manufactured from UV Stabilised, Silicone - treated, Polypropylene Yarns and Resins, our range of Pile seals are manufactured to internationally recognised Standards on 21^st Century machines in state-of-the art Manufacturing facilities.
