Heady new ideas!

The hair stylist creates new shapes with RGS Europa.

Maestro has been created: professional equipment for modern hair styling developed by RGS Europa making the best use of stiff polyurethane. Complicated shapes, mechanical strength and thermal resistance blended in a single compound: Baydur®.

Attractive design and first-rate performance for a project that enhances the quality and versatility of stiff structural polyurethane.

An idea like this can only bring huge advantages:

Mechanical strength - Components made of Baydur®110, while retaining thin walls, respond better to mechanical stresses.

Thermal resistance  - The parts subjected to higher thermal stress are made with a particular type of Baydur®60, capable of easily withstanding the temperatures above 100° C reached during use.

Design - The characteristic spider shape combines attractiveness and perfect functionality. The heater body, shrunk onto a motorised spindle, in fact turns in relation to the main body with centesimal accuracy owing to a bushing inserted especially in the mould and incorporated in the polyurethane foam.

Engineering - Threaded inserts in the mould, threaded take-up inserts and co-moulded centesimal bushings have been inserted directly in the single components calibrating them for the foreseen use.

Reduced costs - Accurate technical analysis has allowed RGS Europa to develop the 8 components of both versions (wall-mounted and free standing) in just 3 aluminium multi-impression moulds, thereby optimising moulding costs and times.

Good looking, sturdy and functional!
Maestro is yet another brilliant example of the many Baydur® solutions developed by RGS Europa.
