Product Description
PTFE architectural membrane fabric is a heavy-weight PTFE coated fiberglass cloth designed for permanent and semi-permanent tensile membrane structures. The combination of woven fiberglass reinforcement and PTFE coating delivers exceptional strength, UV resistance, and self-cleaning properties that maintain appearance over decades of outdoor exposure.
These fabrics use the heavier PTFE coated fiberglass cloth grades — typically 0.70mm thickness and above — providing the structural integrity needed for large-span canopy and roofing applications.
Typical Grades
| Model | Thickness (mm) | Colour | Max Width (mm) |

| 1070JK | 0.70 | White | 4000 |
| 1075JK | 0.75 | White | 4000 |
| 1083 | 0.83 | White | 4000 |
