Tuesday 21 April 2009 - New Collection

After the Modulight® collection 2006-2009, it's now the turn of the Mermet® collection 2009-2012 to take up the baton.
This collection represents a continuity of know-how, but by incorporating the very latest requirements it is also innovative: decoration, environment and tailor-made products... Originality makes Mermet a market leader in creativity and manufacturing expertise.
With this collection, Mermet is active in 4 main markets:
- Solar protection. For the brand's core market, Mermet® fabrics meet the hi-tech challenges of heat protection and glare control. In addition, they enable the user to select the amount of incoming light and to create a unique quality of outside visibility,
- Tensile structures. The high mechanical resistance and perfect dimensional stability of Mermet® fabrics guarantee the very highest levels of performance for even the largest of panels,
- Signage. Mermet® panels are an excellent print medium and are therefore ideal for a wide range of applications: museums & exhibitions, events, exterior signage, interior design...
- Acoustics. With a fabric specially designed for all applications in the acoustic absorption market.

	Specialized in the weaving of coated glass yarns, Mermet offers a collection based on 4 main product families: - The Sunscreen® range has been strengthened. This large product family of exterior and/or interior fabrics (12 products available in over 400 combinations) has stood the test of time and now includes a real innovation: Natura. This fabric based on a 2-tone yarn gives a completely natural effect which is highly decorative for interiors. Other changes to this range: fabrics which offer increased protection against heat and glare, including the new K2 fabric and the addition to the M-Screen family with M-Screen 8501 (1% openness factor).
	- The launch of the Greenscreen® range. Designed for interior use, it is made up of two "green" products: the standard version Viso and a metallic version Viso Met. Guaranteed PVC-free, significantly they are now available in larger widths (300cm). - Blockout. This "blockout" family is comprised of 5 products in over 70 combinations, from 100% blackout to semi-translucent or translucent. - Acoustics. The creation of Acoustis® 50 in 2006 represented a real challenge for Mermet who was just starting out in the acoustic absorption market. By combining acoustic and solar protection performance the fabric became a pioneering success.
Alongside the "standard" range, Mermet is launching a new service for large projects, consisting of a "Mermet tailor-made solutions" which will offer new and innovative products specifically designed for each architectural project: - Personalized yarn colours enabling fabrics to meet particular demands, - Specific coatings: interferential effect with iridescent tones (Opale), metallic coating (diamond), coating to equip the inside of hospitals facilities (Cliniscreen)...

Additionally, from February 2009 Mermet® fabrics made of coated glass yarns will benefit from the new Enduris^TM Glass Core quality-label. It's another stamp of approval and a guarantee of performance for Mermet, who at the same time is pursuing an HQE (high environmental quality) approach, a safety programme with non-flammable fabrics and a quality initiative with fabrics which conform to the Oeko-tex Standard 100 and the Greenguard® eco-labels.
Long-lasting with a 5-year guarantee, offering a wide range of colours and textures for an enhanced decorative effect, professionals and public alike are convinced by the exceptional qualities of Mermet® fabrics.
