Atex® (Architectural Textiles) are high strength glass fabrics, impregnated and coated with translucent or pigmented silicone elastomers, which are used in architecture.
Atex® fabrics are suitable for external applications such as membrane roofs, cladding systems or shading canopies. For interiors they can be used for solar shading, acoustic control, ceiling panels or can be utilized in illuminated displays, diffusing light in an attractive glow.
Silicone membranes are often used for unique architectural design elements, facades, for constructions that require sunlight and also shade, for instance, sport stadiums and arenas.
