Understanding Membrane Types

Several types of membranes are available for stretch fabric structures, each offering specific advantages.
PVC membranes are widely used due to their excellent price-to-performance ratio, wind resistance, and diversity
of colors. PTFE membranes, on the other hand, are known for their exceptional longevity, fire resistance, and
dimensional stability. Micro-perforated fabrics allow improved airflow, reducing heat while still providing
efficient shading—ideal for regions with strong sun exposure.

Choosing According to Usage and Environment

At ArchiToile, membrane selection is based on several key factors: location orientation, sunlight exposure,
dominant wind direction, visual effect, and intended use (residential, commercial, hospitality, or public space).
A public area, for example, requires a thicker and more resistant membrane, while a private garden may prioritize form,
color, and visual comfort.
