PRODUCT

All profiles are extruded using dies designed internally and externally to be the same size and shape as the finished product. This insures the profiles will retain their shape due to the tremendous memory inherent to PVC. Single material profile and the cap stock of the coextruded profiles are formulated using 10 parts per 100 of Ti02 for UV resistance. Substrate of coextruded profiles is the same formulation as the cap stock but with less Ti02, eliminating unnecessary cost. All the profiles come in 4 colors, White, Tan, Ivory & Oyster. Physical Properties of the ridged vinyl compound are as follows, (ASTM).

The main difference between Heritage Vinyl Products and some of our competitors, is we coextruded our products. Coextrusion by definition, is two or more polymer compounds which are extruded by one or more extruders into a common extrusion die to product properties in the finished product which can not be achieved by one compound. Coextrusion methods are the leading edge of technology for vinyl products and provide desirable qualities which are unavailable with similar methods. The coextrusion process physically melds the layers under extreme heat and pressure in the coextrusion head to form an integral plastic stream. In two layer, two extruder fence extrusion, the coextruded layers are forced together under vacuum at about 3000 psi and 400 degree F. temperature. The two layers are both physically bonded and cross-linked to form an inseparable stream. In the finished product wall, the layers cannot be separated by physical means.
