WHY CHOOSE TRANSPATEC®?
Unrivaled
transparency
With an 80% open structure, our fabric allows significantly more light transmission than the 65% industry standard. Its black color and precisely aligned mesh further enhance visual clarity and create a uniform appearance.
Best-in-class air
permeability
Transpatec® offers 2.4 times the air permeability of standard fiberglass fabrics. Its precisely engineered thread structure ensures consistent airflow across the entire surface, improving ventilation and effectively reducing turbulence.
Remarkable
durability
Transpatec® is highly durable thanks to its patented weave. It resists UV, moisture, and temperature changes. While fiberglass screens can lose up to 80% of their strength over time, our fabric shows no signs of aging.
Top-tier anti-dirt
coating
Our fabric comes with an anti-soiling coating that keeps the fabric clean for longer. Using a water-based, eco-friendly process, the coating repels airborne particles and allows rain and airflow to naturally remove dirt.
OUR PATENTED FABRIC
Transpatec®
Classic (TP)
Our classic Transpatec® fabric features warp and weft threads (Ø 0.13 mm) stabilized by an ultra-fine binding thread (Ø 0.06 mm), forming the signature three-thread structure. It delivers excellent airflow, visual clarity, and robust mechanical strength for long-term use.
Transpatec®
Fine Mesh (TFM)
Based on the same structure, TFM uses a finer mesh to provide added protection where smaller insects—including gnats, blackflies, sandflies, and no-see-ums—are common. It maintains high air permeability and a nearly invisible appearance from both inside and out.
Transpatec®
Polltec (TFP)
TFP combines the three-thread design with a triboelectric surface coating that helps reduce pollen accumulation. The water-based finish also supports natural cleaning through wind and rain, helping the mesh stay cleaner over time without compromising airflow or visibility.
