Norvac Profiles is one of the South Africa’s leading window/door gasket and flexible profile extruders. Our success is based on our people, products and service.

Our products are used extensively in the aluminium window gasket / wooden window and door industry and various others such as advertising, shipyards and automotive industries.

Company History

We trace our beginnings to the late eighties when Peter North started operating a small extruder making PVC gaskets for the aluminium window gasket industry. He later teamed up with George Van Camp and the duo built Norvac Profiles up to a major player in the South African window gasket market. In 2011 they sold the business to the current owners and retired. Prior to 2011, the company only used plasticised PVC as a raw material. After 2011 the new owners added more polymers to the product line and successfully introduced Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE’s) and Thermoplastic Vulcanizates (TPV’s) into the window gasket industry as an alternative to EPDM, a type of synthetic rubber.

Our Business

Our diverse and skilled team consists of 20 employees. The business is owner run to assure the focus remains on our key strengths: Quality, Service and Product. We produce over many million meters of gaskets per year and our markets extend into Southern Africa through a network of wholesalers and overseas. Our production facilities are constantly being upgraded and we focus our investments on technologies that can improve our production and widen our offering to the market.

We care about the environment and are proud to only work with fully recyclable polymers.

Our Mission

We recognize our socio-economic and environmental responsibly and it is our goal to remain a market leader through product and technology innovation, quality and customer service. We strive to keep our impact on the environment to an absolute minimum and build mutually beneficial partnerships with our employees to grow responsibly.
