New products and innovations 2024

REHAU Window Solutions presents an important innovation in its core business at Fensterbau Frontale 2024: ARTEVO TERRA.

Based on the innovative ARTEVO profile system, the new ARTEVO TERRA window is the combination of recycled materials in the profile core and bio-attributed PVC in the top layer. Bio-attributed PVC generates around 90% less CO2 emissions during its production, and recycled PVC around 88% less than PVC without recycled content.

The absence of steel reinforcements up to a leaf height of 2,4 meters which allows a further reduction in the CO2 footprint and the Low-E technology for optimal thermal insulation for passive house certified windows make ARTEVO TERRA the most durable profile system in the industry.

ARTEVO TERRA offers bio-based PVC as an exceptional sustainable material and improved energy efficiency. It symbolizes the 360-degree performance of the system solution and significantly reinforces the superiority of the already existing ARTEVO range.

For Frank Zimmermann: “We continue to follow our promise “Dare to be different. Boost your business”. Continuous innovations combined with strong points such as Low-E technology for the best U-values ​​and the almost total absence of steel make ARTEVO the leading premium system. »

Rau-Infinio

REHAU Window Solutions produces profiles with exceptional mechanical properties with the new RAU-INFINIO technology: continuous glass fibers in a thermoplastic matrix. This new material opens up completely new possibilities for window solutions. Indeed, RAU-INFINIO has pioneering values ​​in terms of stability, insulation, application possibilities, handling, design, safety and durability.

Slinova X

With a unique design, efficient manufacturing and assembly, integrated into a future-oriented sustainability concept, SLINOVA X is the innovative sliding solution based on the high-tech material RAU-FIPRO -FIPRO X, SLINOVA X offers the thinnest central part ever made in a PVC-based sliding system. The innovative design opens up new dimensions of transparency for window professionals and inspires architects and building owners. SLINOVA X shares the frame platform with SLINOVA, the second variant of the horizontal sliding system platform.

REHAU Window Solutions continues to prepare its partners and customers for the future, in particular by constantly developing new sales potential in the growing smart home market.

REHAU Smart Privacy is the innovative solution for privacy protection. Rehau Window Solutions is currently expanding the scope of its Smart Privacy system which it presented at Fensterbau Frontale 2024. Smart Privacy will soon be compatible with the Matter standard as a connected solution. REHAU Smart Privacy communicates and interacts even more easily with all common smart home platforms - connecting Smart Privacy to smart home systems is therefore almost as intuitive and quick as connecting a smartphone to the WLAN.

REHAU Window Solutions previewed the Smart Shading solar control solution. Smart Shading allows you to protect yourself from the sun's rays and darken according to the needs identified by the home automation system and thus reduce heat transfer.

Sustainable commitment Rehau Window Solutions

Beyond the context of materials, REHAU Window Solutions develops offers in the field of sustainability. The company has unique experience in a circular economy practiced for decades and ensures an ever-higher proportion of recycled materials.

In 2024, the company will resolutely continue to implement its forward-looking sustainability strategy. Indeed, the clearly defined stages of the carbon neutrality strategy constitute a clear and reliable compass for scopes 1, 2 and 3 which will make it possible to successfully implement the sustainable transformation of REHAU Window Solutions and its partners by 2040.

• Scope 1 and 2: focus on energy efficiency and energy supply.
• Scope 3: optimization of purchases in close collaboration with all partners and suppliers (PVC, packaging, steel and transport).

Sustainability at REHAU Window Solutions is more than a commitment: more than 60% of total production tonnage contains recycled materials. This recycling rate reaches 80% and continues to increase.

As part of the circular economy, REHAU Window Solutions collect 70.000 tonnes of recycled materials per year. In this way, REHAU Window Solutions covers 100% of its recycled content for the extrusion of profiles. As a result, markets benefit from future-proof profile systems with a recycled content of up to 86%, reducing CO2 emissions by 88% compared to the use of standard PVC.

REHAU Window Solutions saves a total of 100.000 tonnes of CO2 per year through the intelligent use of recycled materials. It’s a commitment, an attitude. This is the EcoPuls label, proof of the use of a future-oriented circular economy: entirely from a single source from REHAU Window Solutions.

The next decisive step is the exploitation of future sources of end-of-life windows by monitoring installed windows. REHAU Window Solutions ensures that all windows can become a source of raw materials for future generations of windows. Thanks to the Window.ID digital system, REHAU Window Solutions allows total transparency of installed joinery and ensures not only traceability, but also efficiency and added value for window professionals throughout the value chain and respond to challenges such as the EU Green Deal initiative or the upcoming EU Goods and Services Tax requirements.

REHAU Window Solutions confirms its expertise in areas such as research and development, sales, production, services and marketing providing concrete solutions in sustainability, design and efficiency. Whether profile range, accessories, digital services or smart products: They are all the result of intensive and direct dialogue with the industry for a successful future and sustainable competitiveness.
