Versatility in design
For increased flexibility the PST can provide the solution for any number of situations. The system is available in either aluminium or timber and is based on the award-winning concepts of the:
Sunflex 70 Thermally broken aluminium system
More info...
The Sunflex 70 (70mm front to back) folding sliding door is a thermally broken aluminium system, designed to combat heat loss and prevent condensation. It meets and exceeds all building regulation standards for all external applications. The Sunflex 70 is the market leader for innovation and design and is widely recognised as setting the benchmark. The aluminium extrusion has been separated by a 22mm polyamide thermal break, the largest thermal break on the market. This gives the Sunflex 70 a distinct advantage over the competition by ensuring that it is the most energy-efficient, whilst maintaining sleek and narrow sightlines.
Profile
The PST system has a WS (softline/rounded) edge profile to match with conventional aluminium or UPVC systems.
Sunflex 65 Laminated timber system
More info...
The Sunflex 65 Timber (65mm front to back) folding sliding door system has the slimmest sightlines in Europe and truly highlights Sunflex’s commitment to quality and design. All timber is sourced from sustainable forests: the standard timbers are Meranti (hardwood), Nordic pine (knot free-softwood), while other timbers such as American White Oak are available by special order. The natural beauty of the wood is enhanced by Sunflex’s finishing techniques, resulting in a product that is comparable to high-quality furniture.
Profile
The Sunflex 65 is manufactured from triple laminated solid timber sections. These sections have been stabilised at stress points and bonded back together with opposing grains, which creates added strength whilst preventing warping and twisting.
This ensures the quality, thermal efficiency and reliability associated with the Sunflex product range.

Security
The PST system provides a high level of security as standard. All moveable panels are locked into position by an internal, key-lockable handle that operates a concealed, multi-point locking system to all four of the surrounding sides; this meets the requirements of the Association of British Insurers. This unique design of the single (monorail) track and operating system ensures that it is impossible to lever the panels out of the running track. In addition all glazing is to the inside only.
