Wooster, OH - [October 2022]
Seaman Corporation announces the introduction of several new products to their Shelter-Rite Architectural Fabric product line.
A new Shelter-Rite® High Light Transmission architectural fabric using transparent Tedlar® PVF film. This new architectural fabric is ideal for structures that require natural light such as sports arenas, event venues, greenhouses, and more.
The Shelter-Rite HLT products are available in a number of different strengths/weights and have light transmission values ranging from 50% to 65% light transmission (diffused light).
In addition to the high light transmission, the Shelter Rite HLT products are protected with DuPont Clear Tedlar film, that blocks UV light and provides self-cleaning properties. With excellent weatherability and dirt-shedding properties, Tedlar® preserves the life and aesthetics of architectural fabric structures even in extremely harsh environments. It provides high levels of protection against ultraviolet (UV) light, moisture, rain, and pollution.
“Our new Shelter-Rite® High Light Transmission fabric is just the latest in a long history of providing best-in-class architectural fabric,” said Frank Bradenburg, Business Director of Architectural Fabrics, Seaman Corporation. “With the added protection of Tedlar®, our customers know that their fabric structure will perform and look new for years.”
