Sheet systems

Sheet systems

For more than 25 years, industry partners have put their trust in the high quality of VEKAPLAN sheet systems. The various sheet types can be used in a wide variety of applications, e.g. for advertising, in trade fair and shop construction and in vehicle add-ons.

1985

Together with Chemische Werke Hüls AG and the extruder manufacturer Omipa, VEKAPLAST develops a process for producing PVC-U lightweight foam sheets. They are marketed under the name VEKAPLAN S.

1986

The Belgian sheet manufacturer Isobelec, with headquarters in the small town of Battice, is acquired – and later becomes VEKA PLATTEN S. A.

1994

In Sendenhorst, VEKA opens a technical facility specialised in the processing of PVC-U sheets directly above the sheet production area.

2005

The VEKAPLAN range already includes sheets manufactured with the Celuka process (smooth surface, porous core) as well as freefoam sheets (porous structure) and compact sheets (homogeneous, solid structure). Now another type of sheet is added: VEKAPLAN CX is manufactured in a co-extrusion process.

PVC-U recycling

VEKA stands for an entrepreneurial responsibility for the environment and natural resources. For this reason, recycling old PVC-U windows was actually implemented very early on. Many companies benefit from this service because it makes it easier for them to comply with environmental protection standards.

1993

In Behringen in the state of Thuringia, VEKA Umwelttechnik GmbH opens Europe’s largest and most advanced recycling plant for PVC-U windows and production waste.

2002

VEKA and other profile manufacturers establish Rewindo GmbH with headquarters in Bonn to combine their efforts in the recycling of windows made of rigid PVC-U.

2006

VEKA UT acquires the recycling operation AWEGO Plast in north-eastern France. Today, as VEKA Recyclage SAS, the company operates a plant based on the one in Behringen.

2007

In England, VEKA Recycling Ltd becomes the third European recycling location.

2011

VEKA AG supports the VinylPlus initiative as an active member. In the context of the initiative, which runs until 2020, the European PVC-U industry has voluntarily obligated itself to increase sustainability in the production and use of PVC-U. An essential component of this concept is the recycling of used PVC-U windows, as is made possible by VEKA UT.
