PTFE coated fiberglass fabric SOLUS®
The multiple layers comprising the Solus Architectural Fabrics create unique properties:
. Lightweight: Only a fraction of the weight of traditional building materials.
. High strength: Glass is one of the strongest textile fibres, having greater specific strength than steel wire of the same diameter.
. Flexible: Unlike most rigid building materials, the flexibility of Solus products allows them to be tensioned into dynamic curvalinear shapes.
. Translucent: Allows for soft diffused lighting that evenly distributes light over interior or exterior surfaces.
. Low maintenance: Minimal cleaning is required over the life of the fabric. Due to its non-stick surface, rain washes dirt off the fabric surface while maintaining completel water tightness.
.Totally inert surface: The toughest environments will have no effect on the fabric surface: fungus, acid rains...
.Weldable: Individual fabric panels are welded together to create large monolithic roof surfaces. The strength of the welded seams are strong then fabric itself.
. Long life: There is only minimal degradation to the PTFE coated glass composite over its life. Today, Solus Fabrics can be expected to perform for more that 25 years.
. Fire performance: Solus Fabrics have achieved a Class A fire rating while still maintaining high translucency.
