4M Industrial

Material for thresholds, profiles and frame renovation

Product information

4M Industrial is a rigid, closed-cell material supplied by Four M Profiles for window, door, facade and timber frame construction applications. It combines mechanical strength, insulating properties and low moisture absorption with a homogeneous structure that is easy to machine and finish.

The material offers an alternative to timber in components exposed to moisture and weathering. Its fine, uniform structure supports accurate profiling and a smooth surface for bonding, painting and coating.

For new construction and renovation

4M Industrial can be used for new components and for the protection, repair and upgrading of existing timber frames. Damaged sections can be replaced locally, helping retain sound parts of the original frame and preserve its appearance.

Four M Profiles also uses 4M Industrial for thresholds for exterior doors, French or garden doors and sliding doors. We discuss the profile, detailing and finishing with the customer to match the intended application.

Material properties

• Fine, homogeneous, closed-cell structure
• Low water absorption and resistance to weathering and rot
• Good stiffness and mechanical strength
• Low thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion
• Easy to saw, drill, plane, mill and sand with common woodworking tools
• Good screw retention, bonding properties and paint adhesion

Applications

• Thresholds for exterior doors, French or garden doors and sliding doors
• Glazing beads, rebate profiles and other window and facade profiles
• Protective sill covers and drip profiles for timber frames
• Replacement sections for damaged bottom rails, sills and jamb ends
• Door extensions and door weatherboards
• Insulating mounting frames and installation profiles
• Profiles and components for timber frame construction
• Roof overhang blocks and gutter support blocks
• Waterspouts and custom architectural mouldings

Processing and finishing

4M Industrial can be profiled and finished using familiar woodworking techniques. Select adhesives, primers and coatings to suit the component and its intended use. Contact Four M Profiles for advice on processing and the appropriate finishing system.

4M Eco

Recycled raw materials for durable, high-quality products

Product information

4M-Eco is the latest addition to the Four M Profiles product range. It supports the reuse of production residues by turning residual material into high-quality new products.

With its high proportion of recycled raw materials, 4M-Eco combines high material density, durability and technical performance with aesthetic requirements. In addition to water resistance and insulating properties, it offers strength, screw retention, low water absorption, paintability and workability. These characteristics make 4M-Eco a circular material solution for a range of applications.

Production residues as a valuable raw material

Production residues can become a valuable raw material for new products with excellent quality, properties and performance. By converting this residual material into durable, high-quality materials, 4M-Eco helps minimise waste and reduce the environmental impact associated with waste processing.

In this way, 4M-Eco can contribute to a circular economy. It combines technology and sustainability to address the demanding requirements of circular production.

Material properties

4M-Eco is easy to process and offers the following properties:

• Homogeneous structure
• Resistance to weathering
• Good workability with hand tools and machinery
• Excellent paintability and paint adhesion
• Low thermal conductivity
• No swelling
• Easy to wrap or coat

Applications

• Glazing profiles
• Window sill protection shields
• Window sills
• Skirting boards

Circular material use

The reuse of production residues gives valuable raw materials a new purpose in durable, high-quality products.
