Fabrics

A variety of fabrics can be chosen by Shade Engineering for their structures depending on project and site requirements.

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)

Architectural PVC membrane is a flexible, durable and long-lasting alternative to traditional roofing systems. PVC (polyvinyl chloride) has been a popular choice in the tensile membrane roofing industry since the early 1960s.

High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)

HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) mesh is a robust knitted fabric with diverse applications spanning horticulture, building and construction, agriculture, transport, display signage, water conservation, mining, as well as residential and commercial shade mesh.

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)

PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coated fibreglass membranes are composed of a woven glass-fibre base cloth, pre-coated with a silicon layer to prevent moisture absorption, and then coated with liquid PTFE. This process produces a membrane fabric which has low water vapour permeability and excellent UV, anti-adhesive and light translucency properties.

Ethyl tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE)

ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene) is durable, highly-transparent, environmentally friendly and a lightweight alternative to glass structures. It’s the new generation material which goes beyond glass.
