The company&#8217;s ZowoTec 433 coatings, specially formulated for aluminium-clad timber windows and doors, are a case in point.<\/p>\n<p>Alu-clad fittings originated in the US and are taking Europe by storm, because they combine good looks and low maintenance with easy installation. But there is a downside, as any woodworker who has dealt with them will be aware.<\/p>\n<p>Aluminium exteriors mean that the manufacturers of these fittings can risk softer and less durable timbers than they might otherwise have chosen. As a result, getting the internal framing of an alu-clad window to look good and wear well can be something of a challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Enter Zobel! ZowoTec 433 was specially formulated for the requirements of alu-clad framing. Its ultra-matt finish is designed to be hard-wearing while maintaining the look of untreated wood, so it&#8217;s a great choice if you&#8217;re aiming for a wholesome, natural effect. Excellent dirt- and water- repellent properties make it easy to deploy on even the largest building projects, and its fast-drying formulation is another bonus. Best of all, ZowoTec 433 is fully water-based with an ultra matt finish&#8230;no nasty solvents here!<\/p>\n<p>At Redwood, we&#8217;re dedicated to the needs of professional woodworkers. If you&#8217;d like to discuss how ZowoTec or other Zobel products can help your project along, give us a ring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re tasked with finishing alu-framed windows or doors, ZowoTec 433 is the natural choice Redwood&#8217;s relationship with the German specialist supplier,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2529,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,465,105,470],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all-articles","category-exterior-wood-finishing","category-helpful-guides","category-zobel-exterior-coatings"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How to finish aluminium clad timber windows and doors - Redwood UK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Redwood&#039;s relationship with the German specialist supplier, Zobel Coating Systems, reflects our shared commitment to quality, and also Zobel&#039;s flexibility and responsiveness to the demands of the rapidly-changing construction market.
