Orac Decor products have a maximum heat resistance, depending on the specific material used in their manufacturing. Here are the main pieces of information regarding the heat resistance of Orac Decor materials:

1. Purotouch® (High-Density Polyurethane)

• Heat Resistance: Up to 65°C.
• Applications: Suitable for moldings, cornices, and decorative ornaments. Should not be exposed to direct heat sources, such as halogen lamps or nearby heating appliances.

2. Duropolymer® (High-Density Polymer)

• Heat Resistance: Up to 65°C.
• Applications: Used for baseboards and casings, suitable for areas exposed to moderate heat but not for direct contact with heat sources.

3. Durofoam® (Light Expanded Polystyrene)

• Heat Resistance: Up to 65°C.
• Applications: Intended for simpler decorative elements, with a similar tolerance to the other materials.

4. Flex (Flexible Versions of Purotouch® and Duropolymer®)

• Heat Resistance: Identical to their standard versions (up to 65°C), but it is important not to expose them to extreme thermal conditions that could alter their flexibility.

Restrictions and Recommendations:

• Direct Heat Sources: Orac Decor products should not be installed in close proximity to elements generating excessive heat, such as open fires, active fireplaces, stoves, or kitchen appliances.
• Integrated Lights: If moldings are used to integrate lighting fixtures (such as LED strips), it is crucial to ensure that the temperature generated by these lights remains below the indicated limits. Low-temperature LEDs are highly recommended.
• Paints Used: If the products are painted, make sure to use heat-resistant paints in environments exposed to moderate temperatures.

If in doubt about a specific application or proximity to a heat source, it is advisable to consult Orac Decor's technical data sheets or seek specialized advice.
