In recent years, the features of composite materials and their manufacturing processes have undergone considerable development to obtain structural products and to investigate the sectors and application fields where they can be used. One manufacturing process which gave the best performance results is pultrusion.
Pultrusion
Pultrusion is a continuous process of composite materials reinforced with fibreglass or carbon fibre. Consist in the extrusion of profiles with a constant cross-section which is continuously pulled in a closed mould polymerisation. The pultrusion process produces profiles that sometimes give greater guarantees than those made of steel and stainless steel.
The process is developed in three fundamental steps:
The reinforcement fibres are arranged longitudinally and are made up of complex roving systems and glass or carbon or Kevlar fibres. They make up about 70% of the profile and determine its tensile and flexural strength.
Pultrusion features and advantages
The pultrusion process guarantees the customisation and the repeatability and perfect reproducibility of each product. Although the manufacturing process is still quite slow, the energy consumption required is lower than that required to produce the same aluminium profiles.
Fiberglass pultruded and carbon profiles are environmentally friendly, resistant to rust and corrosion and once implanted in soils or near groundwater they do not release toxic substances.
If you want to learn more about the features of this working process, contact us and we will lead you to the discovery of pultrusion and pultruded profiles in fiberglass and carbon fibre.

Fibra creates effects of blades of light on the façade and shows off a translucent finish through the use of special resins, able to create bright and appealing optical effects, breaking down the material and transforming façade portions into real lamps.
It also gives elegance to architectural works and combines aesthetic and innovative solutions with high-performing and functional systems.

The FIBRA deck system, consisting of interlocking pultruded staves reinforced with glass or carbon fibres, is used in the railway industry for the construction of pedestrian areas of bridges, self-supporting walkways and floors for chemical plants.
What are the advantages?
We also produce an anti-slip version to improve walking.
FIBRA profiles by Saimex win out over profiles made of steel, aluminium, PVC and other materials under special conditions. The uses of FIBRA in the railway sector are for electrical cable ducts, handrails, electrically insulated walkways, gratings, posts, brackets, trusses and panelling.
In the railway sector, it is widely used thanks to its features:
We also offer an additional cutting, mechanical machining and painting service.

It is people, their skills and their dedication that determine the value of a company, which is why Saimex decided to organise three days dedicated to playful, experiential and educational activities that confronted the team with the need to overcome obstacles, to challenge themselves and to find an optimal combination of resources within themselves.
“It was a different experience than usual, allowing us to understand that collaboration leads to the achievement of great goals“, “three meetings focused on different topics that strengthened team spirit” said some of the Saimex employees.
The teambuilding was an important opportunity to share values, visions and strengths, which have contributed to the group’s steady growth aimed at ensuring the best for our clients.

Read MoreThe Saimex Srl company specializes in the production and sale of structural profiles in composite material – Wood Fiber and Glass Fiber – and in particular in the production of THRESHOLDS and parts of windows in FIBERGLASS, exploiting the properties of the material of thermal insulation (lambda value (λ) = 0.25) and resistance to loads up to 1000 kg.
Saimex profiles, thanks to their insulating structure due to the composite material they are made of and the thermal break, are used as thresholds for tile-and-slide systems and as structural parts of windows and doors.
We are one of the leading manufacturer companies of GLASS FIBRE THRESHOLDS for WINDOWS for the most important European brands.
CHARACTERISTICS OF FIBREGLASS THRESHOLDS
Among the main features of Saimex fiberglass THRESHOLDS:
• Thermal insulation
• Mechanical properties comparable to steel
• 100% waterproof
• Total absence of maintenance; since Saimex thermal break windows and doors are resistant to the outside, it guarantees less maintenance costs on the final product.
• High resistance to corrosion and sea water
• Resistance to salt mists
• Anti-condensation
With Saimex fiberglass profiles it is also possible to prevent or eliminate thermal bridges.
CUSTOMIZATION
The company Saimex srl is also highly specialized in the realization of COMPLEX SECTIONS AND CUSTOM PROFILES, and we will be happy to give you support with your projects.
Saimex s.r.l. has in fact a technical office always available to listen and meet your needs. Our team of engineers has a long experience in the design and structural calculation of fiberglass profiles for windows and thresholds for sliding windows.
We have also developed a type of smooth surface finish that does not require further coating, or the application of a protective film and we offer the possibility to choose from a wide range of RAL colors and metallic colors.
ENERGY SAVING
Thanks to the thermal properties of composite materials, the doors, windows and thresholds for tile-and-slide systems in fiberglass are important for the energy insulation of homes and buildings and for the Casaklima project which allows buildings to save energy (by reducing consumption) and economical to sustain themselves.

Saimex s.r.l., based in Seregno, in the Italian province of Monza e Brianza, provides consulting, engineering and research services in the pultrusion process field. Not only that but we are constantly involved in technical research and in studying components to test the quality of the pultruded profiles in order to determine their efficiency in given production contexts. This experimental policy is implemented through our association with Italian universities like the Milan Politecnico and the IUAV University in Venice, as well as international universities such as the Shanghai Polytechnic, developing innovative products like the double flange beams.
We have a highly specialised staff of civil engineers, trained to develop fibreglass pultruded profiles, specified down to the smallest detail, with the primary aim of meeting the wide range of needs that characterise the projects of our customers. At the same time, we have implemented a highly structured consulting service. This aims to define and identify the most suitable type of pultruded profiles for the specific industry also on the basis of the tightness and thermal or electrical insulation required. The true professionalism of the Brianza-based company, together with the experience gained over many years has enabled us to assess and meet the demands of a number of different production areas, including the petroleum and building fields as well the transport industry and the manufacture of door & window frames, rainscreens and curtain walls.
In our research facilities, we constantly study the composite materials enriched with glass or carbon fibre and the pultrusion process, in order to define them according to the benefits they bring and to their quality. We continue to pursue our clear mission to proactively improve the production areas that the constituent parts we handle are adopted in. A number of the studies and publications made by our staff concern the applications of our structural pultruded profiles. Days of study are set aside to focus exclusively on these products.
Our distribution network covers Italy and Europe and when we participate in projects in partnership with international organisations, we also extend outside Europe.
The dynamic nature of our team means we can come into contact with physically distant organisations when it comes to experimental activities that often turn into real practical applications. One of the most successful of these is the partnership with AnsaldoBreda for the construction of the Los Angeles metro.
The innovation and experimentation of Saimex s.r.l. in its pultrusion processes and in its fibreglass profiles is a real strong point of the manufacturing methods we have implemented and, at the same time, aims to expand our know-how in that methodology.
