Type 1 –

PES

Type 1B – Waterproof PES

Type 1B – Waterproof PES

Main Benefits:

Additional Information:

  • Fire Rating: Fire-resistant, passing ASTM E-84 “class A” and NFPA 701 typically (independent fire testing available upon request)
  • Warranty: up to 20-year warranty on selected products
  • Lifecycle: Steel / Aluminum structure can be in continual use allowing for the fabric,  the least expensive element to be replaced after its estimated lifespan of 20+ years.
  • Geography: Works well in a variety of climates
  • Green: 100% recyclable

What is PES Membrane: 

Polyvinyl coated polyester (PES) non-ventilated fabric membrane with select manufacturers utilizing additional protective Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) fluoropolymer and tio2 coatings on both sides for protection and longevity while creating an easy-to-clean surface

Type 1A – PES Ventilated Mesh

Type 1A – PES Ventilated Mesh

Main Benefits:
