Continental is globally known as a tire manufacturer. However, the technology company is also active and highly successful in many other areas. With Continental Exterior Films, the company develops surface solutions for the construction industry, showcasing its expertise in this field. Recently, a new sales partner for the UK market was introduced: Mike Dean from Lamext.
When it comes to the window market in the UK, Mike Dean can impress with nearly 30 years of experience in the industry. “We are delighted to announce Mike Dean as a partner, who is well-connected and experienced, to serve as the point of contact for our customers in UK.”, explains Dominik Dörr, Senior Sales Manager Exterior at Continental. “We are confident that with our combined expertise, we can meet the demand for innovative surface solutions for building elements in the UK and look forward to working together.”
Originally started as a tire manufacturer, Continental is now a globally operating company that has found a home in a variety of different industries. The technology company develops surfaces such as films and coated substrates used in the automotive, furniture, construction industries, and DIY trade. For the design of building elements, the specialists manufacture and market high-quality exterior films for window profiles, front doors, garage doors, and facades. These exterior products were previously marketed under the brand name skai.and ideally combine design and function.
Conti® woodec and Conti® mattex – …and it feels like home: The surface specialist’s two latest product lines are Conti® woodec and Conti® mattex. They combine the best of two worlds for the high-quality design of the building envelope. Deep matt plain colours from ‘Jet Black’ to ‘White’, which correspond exactly to the appearance of powder-coated aluminium, meet woodec decors such as ‘Tropea Oak coffee’ or ‘Jura Pine’, which are almost indistinguishable from real wood. Since 2024, the range has also been expanded by Conti® mattex Shine decors.
The coated PVC-U window profiles are not only visually appealing but also low-maintenance and easy to clean. Thanks to the patented cool-colors technology, they remain in top form even after years of extreme weather conditions. Their function is based on special pigments that reflect the heating near-infrared radiation of the sun. The result: windows covered with films from Continental Exterior Films stay cool and stable in shape.
