Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides an in-depth look at Mehler Texnologies' advanced engineered fabrics, focusing on VALMEX® membranes used in tensile architecture. These fabrics are enhanced with a PVDF top coat and TiO2 nano-titanium reinforcement, offering superior performance in architectural applications.
Specifications: VALMEX® membranes come in various types (I-V) with weights and thicknesses ranging from 700 g/m² to 1550 g/m². They consist of a polyester base fabric with a multi-layer coating system, including a UV-stable PVC main coat and a PVDF MEHATOP F1 top coat.
Material Composition: The fabrics feature a densely woven low-wick yarn base for durability and maintenance-free performance. The coating system includes a TiO2 nano-titanium reinforced primer, enhancing protection and aesthetic appeal.
Mechanical Properties: These fabrics exhibit high tensile strength, tear strength, and crack resistance, with a CMD ratio of 3:2. They are designed to withstand extreme temperatures and are fire-resistant, complying with various international standards.
Performance and Applications: The VARIO-STRETCH® technology allows for anisotropic stress-strain relationships, facilitating easier installation and reducing pre-tension loads. The fabrics are suitable for applications requiring high translucency or opaque finishes.
Sustainability: Mehler Texnologies emphasizes sustainability, with products being 100% recyclable and compliant with EU directives. They participate in the VinylPlus program and collaborate with environmental institutes to ensure ecological standards.
Additional Resources: Technical guidelines, maintenance manuals, and software tools like Mehler TensileDraw are available to assist customers in the effective use and maintenance of the fabrics.
Global Presence: Mehler Texnologies operates globally, with manufacturing and sales offices in multiple countries, ensuring widespread availability and support for their products.
