Tensotherm Membrane Tensiles – The Exceptional Lightest Solid Material
In nowadays architectural world tensotherm membrane tensile is an energy efficient composite fabric product. It is the lightest and the best insulator in the world that offers an unmatched architectural beauty. Though it is said that PTFE tensile fabric membrane provide the same architectural aesthetics but Tensotherm membrane differs itself from PTFE membrane for its feather light insulation layer. It offers a translucent feather light insulation layer that provides the function of snaring air to resist heat loss and solar heat gain. This layer is called Lumira aerogel whose air content is 95% that makes the material the lightest solid one in the world. Tensotherm system itself has been a sand witch between an outer and inner layer of PTFE tensile fabric membrane with this Lumira aerogel. It is noteworthy to mention here that this composite fabric system has a thickness of less than 2 inches.
Characteristics
� It may be thin as 9 mm.
� It is the only translucent and fully insulated lightest solid material.
� Its insulation value is R-12.
� It is highly energy efficient as it allows 3.5 percent natural light transmission.
� This advanced system provides advantage of the highest level of moisture control as well as most effective sound insulation.
� It is less than two inches thick.
� This insulated composite fabric roofing system has another criterion of providing diffused but less glaring natural daylight.
� It offers durability and fades resistance.
� It is malleable and water resistant.
� It can prevent mold and mildew.
� It has the ability to control enhanced temperature even in extreme climatic conditions.
� It provides in-built innovative sustainable quality as compared to other systems.
The facilities it offers
� This particular material has a especial advantage of enhancing thermal efficiency by holding on cool air in warm climate as well as warm air in cold climate.
� Tensotherm fabric membrane acts as an amazing dampener of sound for its insulation property.
� Owing to its high performing energy efficiency it can provide 3.5% natural light transmission which does not require artificial lighting.
� This energy efficient fabric tensile roofing product is the day lighting solution that maintains a balance between design and energy performance.
� As this product is extremely flexible so its insulation value can be altered according to individual demand that requires addition of Nanogel-filled blankets la
� The HVAC energy consumption, its demand and price- all of these can be decreased by its insulation property.
� This superb insulation effectiveness cannot get worsen over time that can be seen in traditional insulations.
� It has the capability of increasing thermal insulation work of original roof by 4+ times.
� For its innovative sustainability better results have been observed in different sectors; such as in schools better teaching and improved learning has been noticed; in offices productivity has increased; sales have been increased mentionable for shopping malls and even healing rates have been better in hospitals.
So, it is noteworthy to mention that Tensotherm membrane tensile fabric is the world�s lightest solid material which achieves better tensile fabric applications for its exceptional feather light insulation layer.
