CASE STUDY:
Composite Door
Manufacturer
Endurance Doors are one of the largest and most reputable composite door manufacturers in the UK. Producing over 700 bespoke solid core composite doors per week, Endurance chose Rocal Extrusions to provide a variety of extruded and foiled components for their premium quality composite door design.
The Product.
After a rigorous and lengthy testing period, the introduction of the TimbPlas Moisture Barrier has completely eradicated moisture related issues and made the composite doors even more reliable than before. As a result our client’s brand and reputation has been significantly enhanced with the implementation of this innovative solution to a rather rudimentary problem.
Preventing Moisture
Ingress
The moisture resistant properties of Timbplas plays a crucial role in improving both a product’s performance and its overall lifespan. By preventing water and moisture from seeping into the lower wooden structures, it protects against common issues such as swelling, warping, rotting, and delamination that can occur with prolonged exposure to damp conditions. This added protection ensures that timber products maintain their structural integrity and aesthetic appearance, even in harsh weather conditions.

At Rocal Extrusions, we wrap lots of different products for Endurance Doors, including:
- DOOR FRAME PROFILES

Extruded PVC
Reinforcing.
Famed for their solidity and security, the Endurance Door is up to 30kg heavier than your average composite door set. The quality and weight of an Endurance Door stipulates that each door frame must be significantly reinforced to offer the same robust feel.
Endurance chose Rocal Extrusions to produce a PVC box tube to be inserted into the main cavity within their chosen door frame profile. Rocal Extrusions developed a lightweight but strong product that delivers fantastic screw holding capabilities to fulfil Endurance’s requirements.
Significantly more cost effective than using a steel or aluminium alternative, the PVC reinforcing has the added benefit of being completely recyclable along with the door frame at the end of its use.
