High-Clarity Commercial Freezer Door Frames & Display Profiles

Thermal efficiency in commercial refrigeration relies on precision components. Our custom-extruded PC and PMMA thermal break profiles and track strips are engineered to act as effective barriers against heat transfer, significantly minimizing cold air leakage and supporting anti-condensation systems in commercial freezers.

Precision Thermal Break Strips
Extruded to tight tolerances, these plastic strips fit perfectly into aluminum or steel frames to interrupt the thermal bridge, drastically reducing heat transfer.
1 a
Low-Temperature Toughness
Formulated specifically for cold chain environments, our PC/PMMA profiles maintain their flexible snap-fit properties without cracking or becoming brittle at -40 degrees.

Seamless Co-Extruded Seals
We offer rigid-flexible co-extrusion for track profiles, combining a rigid base for stable glass door sliding with a soft sealing lip to block ambient moisture.
Extrusion Strip Properties Polycarbonate Strip Acrylic Strip Cold Chain Application
Thermal Conductivity Low (0.20 W/m·K) Very Low (0.19 W/m·K) Acts as an efficient thermal break inside metal frames.
Dimensional Stability Excellent (Low shrinkage) High (Maintains straightness) Ensures long extruded strips stay perfectly straight during temperature shifts.
Flexibility & Snap-Fit High impact; ideal for snap-in claws More rigid; suitable for slide tracks PC is perfect for strips that need to snap repeatedly into aluminum slots.
Surface Wear Resistance Good standard resistance Excellent (High scratch resistance) 高度推荐使用 PMMA 作为滑轨条(Sliding Tracks),耐磨且滑动顺畅。

Integrated Optical Performance

Compliance and durability under extreme conditions. We select only premium, certified raw virgin PC and PMMA resins that comply with strict global safety standards while retaining their mechanical integrity in deep-freeze environments.

RoHS & REACH Compliant: We use premium raw PC and PMMA resins that are fully compliant with RoHS and REACH standards. Our profiles contain zero regulated heavy metals or hazardous plasticizers, making them perfectly safe for closed and open-case commercial cooling environments.

Anti-Brittleness at -40°C: By optimizing the material compounding, our linear profiles maintain high impact strength and structural integrity in deep-freeze environments, eliminating the risk of plastic cracking or chipping during daily commercial use.

Odourless & High Stability: The extruded strips remain chemically stable and completely odourless under low temperatures, ensuring they won’t negatively affect the air quality inside refrigerated display cases.

Beyond Standard Capabilities: Heavy-Duty, Thick-Wall Custom PC Profile Engineering

tangoo pc bar 2
Many extrusion factories decline complex, thick-walled engineering profiles due to the extreme risks of internal bubbling and structural warping. At EXLONG, we turn manufacturing limitations into industry standards. Through our proprietary slow-tempering stabilization technology, we successfully deliver ultra-solid Polycarbonate bars and track profiles with zero internal voids and exceptional linear straightness.

Defect-Free Thick-Wall Extrusion

While standard extruders suffer from internal voids, vacuum bubbles, and micro-cracking in thick polymers, our customized slow-cooling calibration process ensures a 100% solid, crystal-clear structure throughout the entire profile cross-section.

Micro-Precision Internal Tracks

Maintaining perfectly parallel internal slots in a high-thickness solid PC bar is a recognized engineering challenge. Our mirror-polished mandrel dies lock complex dimensions (like snap-fit claws and sliding grooves) tightly in place during the critical cooling phase.

Zero Thermal Warping & Die Lines

Thicker extrusions require longer barrel residence times, which often causes material degradation (yellowing or black spots). We optimize melt-filter systems and tool design to achieve an optical-grade finish with zero surface die lines and maximum wear resistance.

Commercial Refrigeration FAQ

Thermal Efficiency, Material Safety, & Lifespan

 A wide variety of thermoplastics can be coextruded, including (but not limited to) ABS, PVC, polycarbonate, acrylic, polyethylene, polypropylene, and thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs).

Enhanced performance: Combining materials for specific properties.
Cost-effectiveness: Using less of a more expensive material by combining it with a cheaper one.
Design flexibility: Creating complex profiles with varying characteristics.
Improved aesthetics: Adding color or texture to specific areas of the profile.

Common applications include: window and door frames, seals and gaskets, automotive parts, lighting diffusers, consumer goods, and medical devices.

Regular extrusion uses a single material, while coextrusion uses two or more materials fed into a single die, bonding them together during the extrusion process.

Recycling can be more complex with coextruded profiles, as the different materials need to be separated. However, some coextruded profiles can be recycled depending on the materials used and the recycling infrastructure available.

Material selection depends on the specific application requirements, including:

Mechanical properties (strength, flexibility)
Thermal properties (temperature resistance)
Chemical resistance
Weatherability
Cost

Design considerations include:

Material compatibility
Layer thickness
Profile shape and complexity
Bond strength between layers

The cost depends on the complexity of the profile, the materials used, and the production volume.
