GENEO
The New Dimension in Energy Efficient Window Systems
REHAU’s window, door and curtain walling systems bring high quality and ground breaking technology to its products which can meet the requirements for both commercial and domestic applications. Our latest GENEO® window system is manufactured using the high-tech RAU-FIPRO material resulting in windows with a reduction in energy losses of up to 76%*.
*Reduction in the energy loss from windows when replacing old wooden/plastic windows from the 80s (Uf= 1.9, Ug= 3.0) with windows made from GENEO profiles (Uf= 0.91, Ug= 0.5, window size
123 x 148 cm)
GENEO In terms of energy efficiency, GENEO® is the best window profile currently available on the market in the UK with an 86mm profile depth. With GENEO® profiles it is therefore possible to achieve the most energy efficient window products of their class creating an unsurpassed comfortable environment.
RAU-FIPRO®, the innovative material formulation created by REHAU results in window profiles with high stability, torsional stiffness and static properties which were previously not possible without the addition of steel reinforcements. RAU-FIPRO® has been developed based on fibre composites used in aircraft construction and Formula 1 vehicles bringing high end technology to the window manufacturing industry. - Profile depth: 86 mm / Centre seal
- Number of chambers: 6 chambers
- Thermal insulation: Uf = up to 0.85 W/m²K
- Energy saving: up to 76%* *Reduction in the energy loss from windows when replacing old wooden/plastic windows from the 80s (Uf= 1.9, Ug= 3.0) with windows made from GENEO® profiles (Uf= 0.91, Ug= 0.5, window size123 x 148 cm)
- Material: RAU-FIPRO® fibre composite material, coextruded outer layer all the way around made from high quality RAU-PVC for the best surface quality
- Sound insulation: up to SSK 5 without steel reinforcement, RwP = 47 dB with glazing Rw = 50 dB
- Burglar resistance: up to resistance class 3, up to resistance class 2 without steel
- Air permeability: 4 (DIN EN 12207)
- Protection from driving rain: 9A (DIN EN 12208)
- Fully self reinforced window system without additional steel reinforcement
- Excellent stability due to the high quality material, a perfect profile design and the integrated self reinforcement system (IVS)
- Due to the use of the appropriate glass, windows made from GENEO® are suitable for passive houses
- Sightline of 115 mm to let maximum light in
- Efficient storage and production due to full self reinforcement
- Easier handling and assembly due to up to 40 % weight advantage compared to conventional window profile systems
- Functional chambers to optimise the insulating properties with thermomodules
- Large rebate depth of 66 mm to hold triple glazing
- Reduced closing pressure and therefore noticeably easier opening and closing due to the newly developed gasket geometry
- High definition finishing-Surface: Extremely high quality, exceptionally smooth and therefore particularly easy to maintain
- Environmentally friendly, as recyclable
- Many architectural possibilities using individual shapes, e.g. round and triangular windows and also chamfering and Georgian bar techniques
- Extensive range of design options using colouring with decorative foils as well as lacquering
- Light grey gaskets with white profiles and black gaskets with coloured profiles create highlights
- 20° chamfering and 5 mm external radii for an elegant look
