Following a series of rigorous performance evaluations, CIVRO has officially announced that its MED series aluminum profile coatings have successfully passed the AAMA(American Architectural Manufacturers Association) 2603-22 standards. The testing, conducted by the internationally recognized IFO Quality Testing, confirms that CIVRO’s surface treatments meet the strict voluntary specifications for organic coatings on aluminum extrusions.
The AAMA 2603-22 standard is a foundational pillar of the North American fenestration industry. For architects and developers, it serves as a guarantee that the product’s finish can withstand the physical and chemical stressors of daily use while maintaining its aesthetic integrity.
Technical Excellence in Detail
The testing report (B)I26L003-1 detailed a comprehensive battery of assessments where the MED series demonstrated exceptional resilience. Key highlights from the IFO laboratory results include:
Superior Adhesion: Passing the stringent Dry and Wet Film Adhesion tests, ensuring the coating remains bonded even in high-moisture environments.
Chemical Resistance: Demonstrating high stability against corrosive agents during the Muriatic Acid Resistance test.
Impact & Hardness: Achieving top-tier results in Dry Film Hardness and Impact Resistance, proving the profile's ability to resist scratches and dents during transport and installation.
Aesthetic Consistency: Maintaining perfect color uniformity and specular gloss levels, ensuring a premium visual finish for high-end architectural projects.
A Strategic Step Toward Global Expansion
"Obtaining the AAMA 2603-22 certification is more than just a technical achievement; it is a promise of reliability to our global partners," said a spokesperson for the CIVRO Marketing Department. "As we look toward our debut at the AIA Conference in San Diego this June, this certification provides our North American clients with the confidence that CIVRO systems are built to perform under international standards."
By securing this certification, CIVRO reinforces its commitment to the "system" in system windows - where every component, from the hardware to the microscopic layer of coating, is engineered for longevity and performance.
