Why Tensile Membranes Structure?

 

Flexible Design Aesthetics - Tensile membrane structures provide virtually unlimited designs of distinctive elegant forms that can be realized because of the unique flexible characteristics of membrane resulting in an iconic and unique structure or feature for any building owner, city or even region.

Outstanding Translucency – In daylight, fabric membrane translucency offers soft diffused naturally lit spaces reducing the interior lighting costs while at night, artificial lighting creates an ambient exterior luminescence.

Excellent Durability – With several different membranes in the market place such as PTFE fiberglass, ETFE film, PVC, and ePTFE, the durability and longevity of tensile membrane structures have been proven and built in climates ranging from the frigid artic to the scorching desert heat.

Low Maintenance – Tensile membrane systems are somewhat unique in that they require minimal maintenance when compared to an equivalent-sized conventional building.

Cost Benefits – Most tensile membrane structures have high sun reflectivity and low absorption of sunlight, thus resulting in less energy used within a building and ultimately reducing electrical energy costs.

Variety of Membranes – Whether it’s a permanent durable structure that needs to last longer than 30 years, an insulated membrane system for thermal performance, or a deployable flexible application, there are a variety of tensile membranes to choose from to meet specific performances for your next building project.
