Fiber glass screen fabric

Description

Fiber Glass Screen Fabric

Premium rigid projection surface with exceptional stability

Fiber glass screen fabric is a premium, rigid type of projection surface characterized by a core layer of woven glass fibers. This core is then coated with a specialized PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) mixture to create a smooth, white surface optimized for projecting images. The glass fiber layer gives the material its distinctive structural stability and prevents it from stretching or sagging over time.

Main Characteristics

High Structural Stability: The woven glass fiber core makes the material very rigid and dimensionally stable. It will not wrinkle, sag, or stretch, maintaining a perfectly flat surface.
Excellent Flatness: The inherent rigidity ensures an exceptionally flat surface, which is critical for avoiding image distortions, especially with short-throw projectors.
Good Color Reproduction: The white PVC coating is typically optimized for accurate and vibrant color reproduction.
Wide Viewing Angle: It generally offers a wide viewing angle, allowing audiences to see a clear image from various positions in the room without significant color or brightness shift.
Fire Retardant: Glass fiber is naturally non-flammable, making this fabric a popular choice for commercial and public installations where fire safety standards are strict.

Technical Specifications

Gain

1.1

Typical gain ranges from neutral (1.0) to slightly positive (1.2), providing a small brightness boost for viewers positioned directly in front of the screen.

Thickness

0.4 2mm± 0.02 mm

Considerably thicker and more rigid than standard PVC or polyester projection fabrics.

Structure

The structure is a layered (laminated) material consisting of three main components:

Surface Coating: Specialized white or grey PVC with optical properties

PVC Layer: Fills the glass fiber grid to create a solid base

Base Layer: Woven grid of fine glass fibers for core strength and rigidity

Advantages

Superior Flatness: Unmatched stability, ideal for motorized screens where a perfectly flat surface is essential.
Durability: Highly resistant to punctures, tears, and long-term deformation.
No Sagging: Unlike tensioned fabrics, once installed in a motorized screen, it will remain taut forever without any mechanical tensioning systems.
Consistent Performance: Provides a reliable and consistent image quality over many years.
Good for Short-Throw Projectors: The flat surface prevents hot-spotting.
