ETFE Foil

The fabric from which the future is made

ETFE foil roofs are ultra-transparent, light and are available in a variety of designs. The long life span of the foil, the ease of maintenance and low operating costs make ETFE extremely suitable for foil construction.

Here is a summary of the most important properties of ETFE-foils:
Weather resistance

No change to the mechanical values
Permeability of light, air

100%
Foil (with 50-250µm thickness)

95%m
Fire classification

B1, flame resistant
Surface finish

Self-cleaning
Chemical resistance

Outstanding
Scuff and wear resistance

Good, even when faced with flying sand in desert regions
Dielectric strength

Good, as an insulating material, long-term heat resistance up to 150°C
ETFE foils are available in virtually all colours and saturation levels. It is easy to print on the foils. The foil can also be used for lighting effects. It is possible to combine usage with photovoltaics.
