PTFE fiberglass mesh is often used in vertical building facades and shading applications. The fiberglass mesh construction allows for more lighting to enter the space and allows air to circulate through the fabric. Because of its noncombustible scrim, it makes a great candidate for shade structures on high-rise rooftop decks and other building structures requiring roof material. Similar to solid PTFE-coated fiberglass membrane, PTFE fiberglass mesh also have a long-life expectancy, excellent durability and requires minimal maintenance. PTFE-coated fiberglass meshes are available from a few manufacturers with limited standard color selections. Custom colors are not available off the shelf, and requires a premium and a purchase of the entire fabric lot.
