Aluminum Clad Wood - The Best of both Worlds

Due to their innovative structure, Idealu profiles have a dual look. The aluminum cladding creates a modern external appearance, while the wood ensures a traditional interior with a warm atmosphere.

The advanced design isolates the outer aluminum shell from the wood, optimizing the thermal properties of each material. Design options allow corner moldings, wood type, colors and other profile features to be tailored to suit existing design elements. It is even possible to combine different colors; one on the inside and another on the outside.

With an Idealu system a variety of different wood types, colors, and features opens up a wide range of possible designs.

The Advantages of Using Two Materials

The Idealu system combines the best attributes of both materials in one frame – comparable aluminum windows only offer effective insulation with the use of 5 or 6 chamber profiles, whereas wood is naturally a great insulator.

Anodized surfaces create a low maintenance, weather-proof shell over the wooden frame while the entire element benefits from the thermal efficiency of the wood laminate.

Although the Idealu models may be priced slightly higher than comparable single-material profiles, the aesthetic and insulation advantages give a quality and performance that makes an excellent long term investment.
