OVERVIEW
ABOUT THE PRODUCT
The EPU-Series embossed doors are designed to provide security and durability for today’s demanding residential and commercial
markets. The foam-in-place Polyurethane core provides total surface support and an exceptionally flat surface, high impact resistance
and outstanding thermal resistance. It provides a high level of compression and shear strength, which is further enhanced by
bonding with facing materials. It offers the lowest “U” value and the highest R-Factor (a measure of insulating performance / thermal
resistance, and measure of ability to retard heat flow) of all the cores.
As described by HMMA / NAAMM – USA (National Association of Architectural Metal Manufacturers-United States of America):
“Urethane core doors possess superior insulating properties (R- factor of 11.1) and are suitable for exterior openings in
cold climates”.
The EPU-Series embossed doors will provide you with THE BEAUTY OF WOOD….BUT DURABILITY OF STEEL!
FEATURES
CORE:
-
Foam-In-Place polyurethane thermal insulation core, having a thickness of 43 mm and a nominal density of 47 Kg/m3 (DIN 53420).
-
Thermal Conductance (43 mm): U = 0.078 Btu/hr.ft2.ºF. (ASTM C177).
-
Thermal Resistance: R-Factor = 12.80 hr.ft2.ºF/Btu. (ASTM C518-63T).
-
Polyurethane is a thermo-setting material, which when subjected to heat, merely slowly chars without melting or producing flaming droplets (BRUFMA/ID/2/2001).
OPTIONS:
-
Seamless design.
-
Available in wood grain texture or plain stamped.
-
Beveled or flush welded glass beads.
-
Alkyd, polyurethane or epoxy RAL paint finish (factory applied).
-
vision panels, transoms and sidelights.
SPECIFICATIONS OF COMPLIANCE
