COMPOSITE PROFILE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A COMPOSITE PROFILE

摘要

A composite profile comprises: a foam core (1) with opposing frontal faces (2) and a plurality of side faces (3); and a reinforcement fabric (4) which is at least partially in direct contact with at least two adjacent side faces (3). The reinforcement fabric (4) is a woven textile or an at least bidirectionally oriented non-woven textile; the foam core (1) does not or not completely penetrate into the reinforcement fabric (4); and at least on one side face (3) the foam core (1) is exposed. A method of manufacturing comprises the steps of: (I) providing a reinforcement fabric (4), the reinforcement fabric (4) being provided in such a shape as to define at least one upwardly open cavity (1') adapted to receive a foam (4); and (II) providing a solid or spreadable foam (1) into the at least one cavity (1') of the reinforcement fabric (4).
