Innovative film design resistant to adverse climatic conditions  
First experience with the new heavy-duty film RENOLIT FAST

Worms, 24 October 2005 – With its new film generation RENOLIT FAST, the RENOLIT AG, based in Worms, Germany, is setting new standards for films used outdoors: The high-performance film is unaffected by climatic fluctuations and conditions, no matter how extreme, so plastic products coated with this film surface can be used worldwide. RENOLIT FAST ensures color-fastness and high gloss stability over the entire life cycle of the profile. Furthermore, the film is chemical-resistant – even aggressive special cleaning agents cannot harm it.

This innovation is based upon many years of research and development with extensive test and trial runs. With the so-called Xenotest, one of the crucial long-term weathering tests, the weathering resistance of the film can be determined by means of time-lapse photography. Over thousands of hours, film specimens with various decors were exposed to artificial, time-accelerated weathering, thus simulating many years of exposure to high sun intensity and fluctuating weathering conditions. ...

Monika Fecht, Head of Design Management at RENOLIT AG, Worms, culled ideas from many courses: “Fashion is definitely the pacesetter when it comes to colour trends. Consequently we consulted the German Fashion Institute in Frankfurt am Main, took the colour range of the Colour Marketing Group into account and evaluated trends in Paris”. To this must be added our own observations made at trade fairs and exhibitions. The findings gathered in this manner influenced the creation of the new uni-colours series, set new points of emphasis in wood finishing and formed the basis for trend combinations in widely differing surface designs. ...
