Textile Membranes


Since their development over 60 years ago, woven glass fibre fabrics have become indispensable throughout industry - mostly when used to reinforce materials such as polyester, epoxy and other resins. In the architecture of the 20th century, glass increasingly dominated as the cladding style for high rise buildings. Associated with the production of glass from silica was the development of the synthetic polymer - silicone - with many advantageous properties including chemical inertness, thermal stability and resistance to oxidation.

Originally used as sealants and bonding agents for glass, the rapidly expanding market in fabric architecture prompted the development of silicone coated glass fabrics. Atex from Interglas is the culmination of this hi-tech development with applications for creating lightweight membrane structures that embrace a new contemporary freedom of form, lightness and ecological appeal.

Products that set standards

As a major international producer of glass, aramid and carbon fibre fabrics for many technical applications, P-D Interglas Technologies Ltd operates a quality control system that fulfils strict international requirements for the aerospace, electronics and construction industries. Atex fabrics benefit from the most innovative production and application technology plus the most up-to-date manufacturing facilities. These criteria are evident wherever quality, strength, stability, corrosion and fire resistance are required in today's modern fabric building culture of spectacular shapes and architectural ingenuity.
