The company Sailmaker Outdoor-Indoor is focused in the production of technical textiles.
The sectors where we supply fabrics are furniture, contract, public transport, marine, lighting, fashion, architectural solutions.
The newest products at launch now are: Fabrics By Aquastop and I-Mesh.

Aquastop - It is an innovative and performing fiber. It is eco friendly, the raw material consists exclusively of carbon and hydrogen.
Aquastop is hydrophobic by nature: with a maximum absorption rate of 0,05% is the least absorbent yarn available for soft woven textiles. As it does not absorb moisture into the fiber, drying time is minimal.
It is also the lightest fiber among all and is lighter than water (density is 0.91 g/cm3). It is 30% lighter than polyester, 20% lighter than nylon and 25% lighter than acrylic. This fiber possesses the lowest thermal conductivity of any natural or synthetic fiber.The insulation factor is greater by weight for Aquastop than other fiber.
Aquastop is coloured in the liquid stage before spinning so the color in the fiber is part of the fiber itself. This fiber will hold colour no matter the final use. During life of the fabric colours won’t be damaged. The test method selected for colour fastness to light is the European UNI EN ISO 105 B02 and gives 7-8/8 in the Blue Scale.
It is a durable fiber, and will withstand use and tear. Fabric will stay looking new for longer. The abrasion resistance to the Martindale test method leaves the woven unchanged after 50.000 cycles.

I-Mesh: performance and design power
I-Mesh is functional and expressive matter. The yarn placed through personalized paths, takes the form of a multi-axial grid.
Directions and densities make of I-Mesh a “tell tales material” applicable in many ways and disciplines. Applications of I-Mesh are many: in the field of architecture and industrial design we convert I-Mesh into architectural facades, floors, ceilings, panneling, furniture complementary designs to architecture and fashion.
Durable and uncombustible can be shaped to provide comfort, discretion and safety.
They are also capable to reduce noise in the order of 25DB
