Trevira to show interior sun protection textiles at R+T
February 16, 2015 - Germany
German fibre producer, Trevira GmbH will exhibit Trevira CS textiles for interior sun protection at the upcoming R+T Fair in Stuttgart, Germany.
Trevira will be showing both product developments and commercial fabrics from Trevira partners, with special focus on the sound absorbing function and on digital printability.
Available under the Trevira CS brand, CS textiles consists of two component polyester yarns, where one component melts at a lower temperature.
When combined with permanently flame retardant polyester yarns by Trevira, it is possible to produce stiffened textiles for the application in a variety of materials for interior sun protection.
“The latest creations are fabrics with a three-dimensional character, which as a result make ideal sound absorbing materials and at the same time provide sun screening, which is flame retardant,” Trevira says.
The degree of stiffening can be controlled by the proportion of NSK in the material. During the finishing process, the melt fibre stiffens the textile fabric through the effect of temperature, without the use of additional chemicals.
“This manufacturing process therefore offers enormous advantages from ecological and economic viewpoint as the textiles are made from a single material in 100 per cent polyester and are recyclable,” it adds.
According to Trevira, acoustic elements based on textile materials are taking on more and more importance in interior furnishing like schools, nurseries, auditoriums, foyers and restaurants.
“Alongside the functional features of sound absorption and flame retardancy, ever increasing importance is being placed on design in sun protection systems,” Trevira informs.
Textiles provide a design element here which can be adapted in a customised way to the available space.
With vertical blinds, curtain panels, roller shutters, sliding panels, etc it is possible to integrate all these in terms of design into interior concepts, particularly using digital printing.
Given the numerous colours available and the high brilliance of the articles, individually designed motifs on the smooth clear surfaces of sun screening textiles are becoming more and more popular. (AR)
