For all edges and borders – the edgeband RAUKANTEX folding
The desire for harmonious front panel solutions, individuality and modern interior designs – whether in the kitchen, the living room or even for interior doors – is continuously increasing. Intelligent product solutions are therefore the key to a constant flow of new design possibilities.
With RAUKANTEX folding and RAUKANTEX folding premium, we offer you high-quality edgebands made from polypropylene* which can be shaped in various ways as part of the soft-forming process.
The result: unique, handleless front panels without compromising on quality. The possibilities of the filigree side-panel construction are also manifold.
* We recommend using polypropylene. Other edgeband materials must be tested for the specific application.
The shape variants at a glance:
Be it J, C, L/rolled or even roof-shape: RAUKANTEX folding and RAUKANTEX folding premium are the solutions.
RAUKANTEX folding premium was specially developed for complex geometries (e.g. J and C shapes). Its unique formulation makes the edgeband even more flexible. This completely eliminates the memory effect.

Soft-forming – simply better with thermoplastic edgebands
Polymer edgebands have clear advantages over melamine edgebands. And these advantages can be seen throughout their processing and post-processing, their resistance properties and, ultimately, their quality and design.
Why is RAUKANTEX (pro) the best choice?
RAUKANTEX pro offers the best properties:

High quality. Innovative. Polymer.
Doors with invisible joint edgebands come with countless advantages: they are extremely long-lasting, durable, with the best cleaning properties, soft edges on the rebate and non-rebate sides of the door and a high-quality finish.
REHAU has developed an edgeband solution specially for this area of use, complete with a functional layer that adheres to a wide range of different bolt materials.
A folding process that does not involve any prior carving into the edgeband has become the state of the art in the door industry, as has the use of polypropylene and laser processing.
