Tooling
All of RAM’s tooling is designed in house, down to the last detail, then produced by various specialist tool makers around the UK. Unlike many extrusion companies we do not believe in leaving the design of this most critical stage of the whole extrusion process to any outside of our company and also believe that our philosophy of getting each part of the tooling actually manufactured by specialist in their field ensures we get the what we need to produce the best extruded profiles possible.

Specialist Products
RAM’s range of architectural seals has been designed and tested to ensure excellent protection against sound, weather, light, smoke, dust and insects.
Manufactured from quality material to the highest standards all our seals have been developed and tested to ensure their suitability for use in commercial, domestic and public buildings.

Our seals are always designed to ensure that they are 100% fit for purpose and manufactured using the most efficient materials and methods. All seals showing an E Doc symbol and stating a Db rating have been independently tested by an accredited test laboratory in order to obtain the rating stated. All Db ratings shown are for the seal when it is tested unaided by any other seal and not as a multi-seal installation.
