Paint

Owning its own state-of-the-art paint workshop, the company guarantees unparalleled application quality on PVC and aluminum.

Industrial Grade Equipment Used
Our paint workshop meets environmental and CSA standards. The highly efficient ventilation/filtration system eliminates dust. The paint booth is equipped with an air make-up system, maintaining a constant temperature.

The spraying process is flawless thanks to HVLP (high volume low-pressure) equipment, reducing paint losses. The paint used (Acrythane Aqua by Evotech) is water-based.

Frames and shutters already welded during the painting operation
Many manufacturers use a process where profiles (frames, shutters, etc.) are painted in lengths. The painted profiles are then cut to the required length and welded afterwards.

These cutting, welding, and cleaning steps affect the paint at the welding seams. Manual touch-ups are necessary, often resulting in less-than-desirable finishing quality.

In contrast, our experienced staff applies paint to frames and shutters after they have been welded. This eliminates the aforementioned issues.

Purpose-built Paint for Manufacturing
The paint we use (Acrythane Aqua) reflects a significant portion of solar radiation. Problems related to deformation due to excessive heat buildup inside PVC profiles are thus eliminated. Acrythane Aqua paint remains flexible at all times, whether on PVC or coextrusions.

Convection Drying Process
Once painting is completed, all our windows are directed to the “Sunkist” thermo-reactor for drying. This equipment operates via radiation. Our drying room is equipped with a convection system that maintains a constant ambient temperature. This step ensures uniform paint finish and accelerates drying.

Quality Control on Every Project
Multiple tests are conducted to ensure consistent quality control and application quality.

  • Adhesion test
  • Product viscosity test

For each painting project, a painted sample piece is archived for future reference.

Steel Reinforcements Installed in Shutters and Mullions
For windows 58 inches and taller, we install steel reinforcements. This approach reduces the risk of warping in painted windows. In the case of dark-colored painted windows (e.g., commercial brown), heat gain can distort PVC.

Heat Ventilation Holes to Reduce Heat Buildup
These discreetly drilled holes on the exterior aim to minimize the risk of warping in painted windows by preventing excessive heat accumulation.
