Membrane Tensile: a Tree like Membrane Offering Shades and Comfort

In sustainable commercial roofing project TiO₂ or Titanium Dioxide plays a vital role. So it has been a popular choice of developers and designers to create various architectural wonders. It is a top coating which provides the unique self cleaning performance. TiO₂ coated tensile fabric helps us like a tree providing shade as well as comfort. This membrane tensile has been very demanding for its translucency. That is why this photo catalytic membrane which is light weight but durable has been an ideal and attractive option to the architects and designers for commercial roofing applications. In custom tensile system TiO₂ coated fabric has made a great commercial roofing market in Asia and is trying to establish its niche in North American custom fabric roofing industry.

Features

�    It provides an auto cleaning benefit. Through a chemical reaction with the different components of air such as oxygen, water vapor and the ultra violet rays of the sun this self cleaning property helps the material to decompose dirt and other organic material.

�    This membrane tensile is translucent.

�    It is lightweight.

�    This fabric membrane is non toxic.

�    It is exceptionally flame resistant.

�    TiO₂ is a photo catalyst.

�    Use of this fabric is absolutely perfect for the urban areas where number of traffic is heavy.

�    It is water proofing membrane.

�    Photo catalytic membrane structures has a contribution in enduring translucent, beautiful and brand new or pristine appearance for a long days only owing to TiO2 coating technology.

�    PTFE if goes with this coating technology may be an attractive option for the large complexes only by evenly dispersing daylight.

�    Application of this coating to the fiber glass membrane does not require any maintenance literally for its capability of self cleaning.

�    This membrane tensile provides durability.

�    It is resistant to ultra violet rays.

�    It has the capability of combating extreme temperatures, from minus 100 F to 500 F.

�    This long lasting fabric membrane is able to retain its original appearance even after long years with minimal maintenance.

�    This coated tensile membrane behaves like a tree that offers shade as well as comfort.

�    It has also the capability to neutralize airborne pollutants and scents. So, it is anti bacterial.

�    It provides deodorizing property.

Benefits of this coating material

�    TiO₂ fabric helps to retain its pristine condition. So, even after long years of use its appearance will remain unchanged.

�    This photo catalytic membrane has the capability to convert the organic materials into harmless gases which make the membrane clean, bright and pollutants free.

�    It can transmit natural light as it is highly translucent, so it can reduce the need for artificial lighting. In this sense, it is cost effective also.

�    Not only that its self cleaning property leads to long term cost savings. So, it is maintenance free and in this case its cost effectiveness is further proved.

�    This photo catalyst creates active oxygen ions with the help of sun�s UV radiation, oxygen, and water vapor present in the atmosphere. These ions in another reaction called oxidation reduction break up the organic materials into natural components and this decomposed material is simply washed out with rain without any trace.

�    Its application is ideal in urban or heavy traffic areas where non industrial gases and pollutants accumulate.

So, from the above discussion this much can be said that TiO₂ membrane tensile is the latest, innovative architectural material that offers all in one.
