2.14. End of life phase The theoretical service life of the façade profiles exceeds the service life of, for example, the glazing or the permanently elastic seals. The aluminium profiles are 100% recyclable. Primary and secondary aluminium have identical product quality. Scrap from demolition, conversion or refurbishment can easily be separated and recycled (via industry). The process waste produced in the production and further processing of the profile is completely recorded in the factory and processed into new input material in a recycling process in the re-melting plant. Press studs can be made with reused extruded profiles as the starting material.the recycling2.10. State of use Façades of the WICTEC product range are installed in a thermally separated design as a building closing component and are exposed to weather conditions. Maintenance or care of the profile surface is not required. During the service life there are no changes in the material composition.
