Desarrollo de un nuevo recubrimiento de vinil para perfiles de aluminio en sistemas de ventanas, aplicando etapa cero del ciclo de vida del producto.

Abstract

The present project with the theme of developing a new vinyl coating for aluminum profiles in window systems represents a significant advance in the construction industry and materials engineering. This project focuses on the implementation of Product Life Cycle Stage Zero, which involves careful planning and consideration of environmental impacts from the early stages of development. The implementation of Stage Zero involves a thorough evaluation of production processes, including aspects such as carbon emission reduction, resource efficiency and waste minimization. Research includes the analysis of new technologies and more sustainable production methods, as well as the selection of raw materials. The choice of vinyl as a coating material offers numerous advantages, such as its durability, resistance to weather and ability to maintain its aesthetic appearance over time. Vinyl is also known for its low environmental impact during production and application, which contributes to the sustainability of the project. A non experimental and descriptive research design is used, with qualitative and quantitative approaches through surveys, interviews and observations. The research modality includes field and documentary, with emphasis on the company ACXENT.VIT, it addresses the problem of aluminum and glass workers affected by the lack of a suitable vinyl roll. The research is carried out in the natural environment of the firm, combining primary and secondary sources.
