I-MESH is a multi-axial and multifunctional non-woven mesh made of high-tech mineral and man-made yarns stabilized by a resin system. It's suitable for both indoor and outdoor use (architecture, retail, scenography, furniture complements). Indoors I-MESH is utilized for: internal partitions, ceilings, artificial light screening and diffusion, projection screens, furniture, scenography, fair stands, events. Regarding its main applications outdoors it is specially conceived for architectural facades. Thanks to the materials it is composed of –carbon, glass, basalt, zylon, and technora fibers- this innovative product can offer special light/solar shading with all the advantages of its weight, morphologic size and structure. In the façades application field its main technical performances are:


- solar protection which can be controlled through different percentages of the mesh openings - low value of thermal conductivity that prevents the transfer of heat through radiations to the shielded structures - high mechanical resistance - excellent tensile strength - incombustibility - excellent property of thermal insulation - noise reduction - quick and economical installation due to the material lightness and flexibility. As a consequence of these properties the cost of transportation is extremely competitive for shipment abroad. Furthermore a winning feature is its sustainability from the environmental point of view, in terms of reduced energy running cost of the cladded buildings.
