Solutions & Customization FAQ

Can technical textile solutions be customized?

Yes. Technical textile solutions are often tailored to the needs of specific industries and projects. We supply fabrics in rolls that can be further processed into finished products or structures. Different fabric types, weights, coatings, and surface treatments can be selected depending on the required performance.

What factors should be considered when selecting technical textiles?

When selecting a technical textile, several factors should be evaluated:

  • Required strength and weight
  • Exposure to weather, UV, or chemicals
  • Fire safety requirements
  • Temperature conditions
  • Expected service life
  • Processing methods such as welding or sewing

Choosing the correct material helps ensure long-term performance and cost efficiency.

Do technical textiles require maintenance?

Technical textile systems generally require limited maintenance, but periodic inspection and cleaning can help extend their service life. Removing dirt, biological growth, or debris will help maintain both performance and appearance.

How do technical textiles contribute to sustainable solutions?

Technical textiles can offer resource-efficient alternatives to traditional construction materials. Their low weight reduces transportation requirements, and their durability means fewer replacements over time. In many applications, this contributes to lower overall environmental impact and improved cost efficiency. In addition, there are sustainable solutions, such as flood protection, which protect buildings and the local environment during extreme weather events such as flooding.
