Patent number: 11931944Abstract: A lineal product includes a composite pultruded substrate having a solid outer surface, and a multi-layer coating extruded directly onto the outer surface. The coating comprises a solid extruded base layer comprising a first thermoplastic material extruded onto the outer surface, the base layer having a base-layer inner surface in intimate contact with the outer surface and a base-layer outer interface. The coating further comprises a solid extruded outer layer comprising a second thermoplastic material comprising polymethyl methacrylate extruded onto the first thermoplastic material, the solid extruded outer layer having an outer-layer interface in intimate contact with the base-layer outer interface and an outer-layer outer surface, wherein the intimate contact between the base-layer outer interface and the outer-layer interface forms a solid interface between the base layer and the outer layer. The solid extruded outer layer has a hardness of at least 1H pencil hardness.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2020Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Tecton Products, LLCInventors: John Jambois, Jay Mosbrucker, Aaron H.

Patent number: 8117801Abstract: A building product is configured for attachment to a surface of a building. In one example, the building product includes a siding product including a first side and a second side. In one example, the siding product is a pultruded product. A first engagement feature is disposed on or near the first side. A second engagement feature is disposed on or near the second side. The second engagement feature is configured to selectively frictionally engage with the first engagement feature of another similar siding product such that any curvature in the siding product increases frictional engagement between the siding product and the other similar siding product. In one example, the building product includes a spacer clip for attachment of the building product to the surface of the building.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2010Date of Patent: February 21, 2012Assignee: Tecton Products, LLCInventors: John Jambois, Robb Willgohs, Shane Allmendinger
