Construction
Durable materials for building and infrastructure applications.
Politem develops engineering compounds for technical building components requiring weather resistance, mechanical reliability and consistent processing.
Built for Long Term Functional Performance
Construction components can face continuous load, impact, moisture, temperature changes, sunlight and contact with cleaning or installation chemicals. Material design therefore begins with the installation environment and expected service conditions.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
|
• Technical profiles |
• Window and door hardware |
|
• Fasteners, clips and spacers |

Material and Technology Portfolio
The portfolio covers rigid, reinforced, impact-modified and weather-resistant compounds for indoor and outdoor building applications.
|
Material Platform |
Relevant Technologies |
|
PA6 and PA66 |
Strength, stiffness, impact performance, heat stabilisation and reinforced grades |
|
PP |
Mineral or glass-fibre reinforcement, impact modification and recycled-content options |
|
PBT |
Dimensional stability and electrical performance for installation components |
|
ASA |
UV and weather resistance with colour stability for outdoor use |
|
ABS and PC ABS |
Impact performance, appearance and dimensional control for housings and fittings |
|
POM |
Low friction and wear resistance for moving hardware |
Performance Priorities
The required balance depends on whether the component is structural, moving, visible, outdoor or part of an electrical installation.
|
• UV and weather resistance |
• Impact resistance |
|
• Creep resistance |
• Dimensional stability |
|
• Temperature cycling |
• Moisture resistance |
|
• Chemical resistance |
• Surface and colour retention |
|
• Flame-retardant options |
• Recycled-content solutions |
Application Driven Development
Material development considers geometry, fastening method, expected load, exposure conditions and installation process. UV packages, reinforcement and impact modification are adjusted to the intended service environment.
TESTING AND VALIDATION
Mechanical, thermal, dimensional, weathering, colour and application-specific testing may be used according to the project. Regulatory and fire-performance requirements must be defined for the exact product and market; test results are not presented as general building-product approval.
