Precontraint TX30

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Précontraint TX30 is a high-performance material developed for demanding architectural projects, offering mechanical and aesthetic longevity through advanced coating technologies.

Specifications
The material features a 30-year coating formula and a CROSSLINK PVDF top coat, providing exceptional resistance to weathering and UV exposure. It maintains dimensional stability and requires low maintenance due to the unique Précontraint technology.

Mechanical Longevity
The Précontraint TX30 offers superior mechanical longevity, with a thicker coating that protects polyester micro-cables from UV degradation. It shows limited erosion and maintains mechanical properties even after 30 years of exposure.

Aesthetic Longevity
The CROSSLINK top coat enhances durability by forming a three-dimensional network that resists photo-oxidation and micro-cracks, ensuring a smooth surface that is easy to clean.

Environmental Impact
Précontraint TX30 aligns with eco-design policies, offering reduced environmental impact through recycling via Texyloop, which extends the life of raw materials.

Main Features
  • Proven design life of over 30 years
  • Minimal maintenance with bright and clean appearance
  • Optimized comfort with natural light and heat protection
  • Recyclable through Texyloop

Applications
Suitable for major construction projects, demanding structures requiring long life, and large-scale permanent tensile structures.

Technical Properties
The material is available in various standards with different technical properties, including tensile strength, tear strength, and flame retardancy. It offers excellent microorganism resistance and maintains dimensional stability.

Thermal and Acoustic Performance
Précontraint TX30 provides effective thermal conductivity and acoustic weakening, contributing to energy savings and comfort.

Certifications and Warranty
The product complies with ISO 9001 quality standards and offers a warranty subject to specific conditions. Environmental impact assessments and LEED reports are available upon request.
