For all edges and borders – the edgeband RAUKANTEX folding

The desire for harmonious front panel solutions, individuality and modern interior designs – whether in the kitchen, the living room or even for interior doors – is continuously increasing. Intelligent product solutions are therefore the key to a constant flow of new design possibilities.

With RAUKANTEX folding, we offer you a high-quality edgeband made from polypropylene* that can be shaped in various ways as part of the soft-forming process or angled edgebanding. 

The result: unique, handleless front panels without compromising on quality. The possibilities of the filigree side-panel construction are also manifold.

*We recommend the use of polypropylene. Other edge materials must be tested for the specific application.

The benefits at a glance:

  • Available as a primer edgeband (RAUKANTEX pure) or a zero-joint edgeband (RAUKANTEX pro)
  • No paint cracks, no stress whitening
  • Allows harmonious, handleless furniture components 
  • Perfect transfer of the decorative designs on the front to the edge
  • Comfortable feel
  • Resistant – optimised surface for the soft-forming process
  • Low-maintenance and durable
  • Infinite variety: nearly all gloss levels, widths and embossing types available
  • Proven know-how: surface treatment, coating, pigmentation
  • Can be used for all industries and application areas

Soft-forming – simply better with thermoplastic edgebands

Thermoplastic edgebands have clear advantages over melamine edgebands. And these advantages can be seen throughout their processing and post-processing, their resistance properties and, ultimately, their quality and design. 

Why is RAUKANTEX (pro) the best choice?

RAUKANTEX pro offers the best properties:

High quality. Innovative. Polymer.

Doors with zero-joint edgebands come with countless advantages: they are long-lasting and extremely durable, enjoy the best cleaning properties, and they create soft edges on the rebate and non-rebate sides of the door as well as a high-quality look.

REHAU has developed an edgeband solution specially for this area of use, complete with a functional layer that adheres to a wide range of different bolt materials.

A folding process that does not involve any prior carving into the edgeband has become the state of the art in the door industry, as has the use of polypropylene and laser processing.
