A new publication from Textile Media Services —Textiles in Architecture: Materials suppliers for building and construction — describes leading international companies that weave, knit, coat, bond or finish fabrics used in architecture, building and construction. Sun and weather protection, as well as light and temperature regulation, are the main applications for the materials produced by the featured suppliers. Some of these fabrics are visible from the outside or inside; others are integrated into walls, ceilings or flooring.

 

Written by internationally respected textile journalist Claudia Ollenhauer, this in-depth report, with more than 200 pages and almost 40 tables, includes profiles of some of the leading global textile companies that supply materials for architectural applications. It also includes a glossary and a list of important standards applicable in this field.

 

Published in May 2011, the report features around 40 profiles of leading players in the architectural textiles sector, including: Acker, Aeronautec, Bekaert, CSS, Dickson-Constant, Dyneon, Engtex, Eurospan, Ferrari Group, Fibertech, Gavazzi, GKD, Herculite, Heytex, Hightex, Johns Manville, Kast, Kobond, MakMax, Mehler Texnologies, Mirasol, Naizil, Nittobo, Owens Corning, PD FibreGlass, PGI, Pongs, Saint-Gobain Technical Fabrics, Sattler, Sefar, Synteen & Lückenhaus, Taconic, V.
