Safety and Compliance
The fabric is fire-resistant, lead-free, REACH compliant, and comes with a 5-year warranty. It is antibacterial and printable.

Technical Properties
Composed of 36% fiberglass and 64% PVC, the fabric has a Natté 1x2 weave, a surface mass of 390-440 g/m², and a thickness of 0.40-0.50 mm. It has high color fastness and specific acoustic properties.

Mechanical Properties
The fabric has high breaking strength and tear resistance, with low elongation at break.

Fire Certificates
Complies with international fire safety standards including B1, Class 1, M1, Class 0, and FR.

Processing and Maintenance

Thermal and Visual Properties
Tested according to EN standards, it provides effective thermal and visual comfort with solar factor calculations.

Conclusion
Mermet's M-SCREEN fabric offers a versatile solution for solar shading, combining aesthetic appeal with functional benefits like fire resistance and durability.

Solar Transmittance and Absorptance
Solar transmittance (Ts) is the solar radiation passing through the fabric, while absorptance (As) is the absorbed portion. Low absorptance indicates minimal solar energy absorption.

Solar Factor (gtot)
The percentage of solar energy penetrating a room through blinds and glazing. A low value (<0.15) indicates good thermal performance.

Thermal and Optical Indices
According to EN 14501:2021, these values measure solar shading performance, assessing thermal and visual comfort.

Emissivity
Low emissivity fabrics reduce cold sensation in winter and heat in summer, aiding energy conservation.

Acoustic Properties
Measured by ISO standards, providing insights into acoustic absorption potential.

Handling and Care Instructions
Handle with gloves, store in original packaging, and avoid folding for long-term storage.

Warranty and Maintenance
Mermet offers a five-year warranty under normal use. Care includes handling with clean hands and avoiding solvents.

THERMAL FACTORS ÍNDICES TÉRMICOS BASIC PRINCIPLES PRINCIPIOS BÁSICOS Solar radiation is always partially transmitted through, absorbed or reflected by the fabric. The sum of all 3 equals 100. Ts + Rs + As = 100 % of solar energy. Toda radiación solar es en parte transmitida a través del tejido, absorbida o reflejada por el tejido. La suma de las 3 es igual a 100. Ts + Rs + As = 100 % de la energía solar.

ADVICE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS HANDLING RECOMMENDATIONS To facilitate the handling of large widths of fabric and to avoid marks on the fabric, Mermet recommends that the panel(s) be rolled on a tube at each stage of the assembly process. Para facilitar la manipulación de tejidos de gran anchura, así como para evitar marcas, Mermet recomienda enrollar los paneles en un tubo en cada etapa de la confección. En el caso de los tejidos con un revestimiento acrílico blanco en el envés, se recomienda manipularlos en una superficie de trabajo limpia, sin polvo y seca. For fabrics with a white acrylic coating...
