Erlangen, 28 September 2023 – The 360-degree performance of ARTEVO stands for best values in all dimensions. That is why the new premium window system from REHAU Window Solutions sets standards in terms of design, buildable sash sizes, productivity and above all sustainability. Window professionals with a focus on success and sustainability will benefit in particular from the patent-pending LowE technology.

ARTEVO's intelligent product concept resolves classic conflicting goals. The passivhaus-certified ARTEVO max system with its factory-integrated LowE technology combines the best possible thermal insulation with the highest level of sustainability and at the same time significantly expands the potential of rational window production at the producer significantly.

"Recycling the complete window profile is easier, more effective and more sustainable than ever before".

"The LowE technology integrated into the profiles at the factory is the decisive success factor for window professionals. It makes the insertion of additional foams for heat thermal insulation into the profiles. The development team at REHAU Window Solutions has integrated this step into profile production in a maximally rational way.
The LowE technology is also based on a PVC profile. It therefore fits seamlessly into our completely closed-loop recycling economy, as it can simply be recycled together with the existing window profile: Recycling the complete window profile is easier, more effective and more sustainable than ever before," says Frank Zimmermann, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of REHAU Window Solutions.

ARTEVO max is energy efficiency in perfection. The product variant with LowE film is the uniquely sustainable solution for passive house certified elements. At the same time, several other details ensure that production always runs as rationally as possible: The use of the Lo-wE film, for example, prevents the welding plate from becoming contaminated and thus having to be cleaned or even replaced.

ARTEVO max. Create Difference. Grow Business.

"Sustainability in perfect combination with productivity: only ARTEVO max with LowE technology can do that. Only REHAU Window Solutions can do that. The basis for this 360-degree performance is the close and intensive dialogue with markets and customers worldwide. Their needs are always the guideline for our work. This closeness is unique. It finds expression in numerous innovative formats that make direct exchange the fruitful basis for ever more successful business.

Maximum sustainability

ARTEVO max: The product variant with Low-E foil is the uniquely sustainable solution for passive house certified elements.
Best thermal insulation up to passive house certification: ARTEVO max, the product variant with additional, innovative REHAU Lo-wE profile technology, offers energy efficiency in perfection. By using the LowE foil in the frame and sash, ARTEVO max achieves Uf values of up to 0.81 W/m²K and is certified according to the criteria of the Passive House Institute in Darmstadt and easily meets the high requirements of the Swiss Minergie P certification.
Recyclable LowE film: Standard solutions for plastic windows certified for passive houses are usually additionally insulated with PU or PS foam, which cannot simply be recycled in the recycling process. The LowE film in ARTEVO max can simply be recycled with the existing window. In this way, the materials remain in the cycle in a beneficial way.
The integration of the innovative LowE film significantly reduces thermal radiation and convection in the chambers: for Uf values of up to 0.81 W/m²K.
