Benefits of the extruded profiles
Variety of customised designs
Can be combined and installed in a modular manner (ripple & serrated profiles, horizontal, vertical, diagonal)
High resistance
1.8 mm profiles (vandalism protection in ground floor zones)
Durable, corrosion-resistant, virtually maintenance-free
Variety of colours (powder-coated) or plain aluminium (anodisable)
Easy to install
Same visible widths, low weight
Uniform, high-quality appearance due to concealed fastening
The combination creates exciting visual effects.: Expert tip
Thanks to the uniform visible width and suitable exterior, the different variants of an extruded profile, as well as serrated and ripple profiles on the rainscreen, can be combined in a modular manner – and installed vertically, horizontally or diagonally.
Ideal for balcony cladding
The extruded profiles from PREFA are extremely robust and unbreakable due to their profile thickness of 1.8 mm, allowing even sensitive areas of a building to be clad permanently and durably.
As balcony cladding, the system is impressive in terms of its functional and aesthetic privacy and wind protection. At the same time, it meets the legal requirements for fall-through protection.
You also have free rein when it comes to the colour scheme
Thanks to the colour coordination with the PREFA complete system, an aesthetically sophisticated building shell has been achieved. The ripple and serrated extruded profiles are easy to clean and available in an endless variety of colours:
- in all PREFA P.10 colours
- powder-coated in all available RAL or NCS colours
- plain aluminium (anodisable)
This ensures an attractive appearance and high resistance.
Get inspired by real-life properties that have already been implemented!
A façade made of PREFA extruded profiles is a very robust option to clad the exterior wall. It is irrelevant whether the entire façade or just a section of it is implemented.

Accessories for extruded profiles
The range of accessories for extruded profiles with starter, junction and corner profiles ensures easy, trouble-free installation. For aesthetically pleasing joints and end pieces, colour-coordinated flashings are available – they give the façade a particularly harmonious surface effect. The system is technically advanced, as it can be installed in such a manner with a sliding clip that it can expand, thus balancing out temperature-induced pressures and deformations.
