Mermet Australia's K2 PVC coated fibreglass fabrics
The new Mermet K2 dual sided intelligent fabric brings the
best of both worlds, with its white backing, offering outstanding performances.
The dark side facing inwards provides great glare protection, while the white
side facing out, reflects a large proportion of solar energy for maximum heat
protection.
K2 is made from coated fibreglass yarns, and is listed on Ecospecifier.org as
an environmentally friendlier choice by achieving significant reductions in
the demand for air conditioning, reducing the electricity consumption and
greenhouse gas emissions.
Mermet's PVC coated fibreglass fabrics, which includes K2, have recently
received two certificates from the GREENGUARD Environmental Institute. The
first endorsement, GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certificate confirms Mermet's
environmental responsibility and indoor air quality achievements.
The second endorsement, shows that the Mermet sunscreen fabrics meet or exceed
the stricter emission guidelines for GREENGUARD Children & Schools, taking
into consideration the heightened sensitivities of school populations.
As most other Mermet fabrics, GreenScreen™ K2 has been tested for volatile
organic compound emissions, with the VOC concentration expected to be less than
the amount specified by Green Building Council of Australia Green Star Office
Interiors.
K2 can be eligible to help projects achieve credits under several categories of
the Green Building Council of Australia Green Star Office Interiors.
K2 is fire retardant, and is labelled Oekotex standard 100, containing no chemicals
harmful to the health and safety of users.
Suitable for all types of internal blinds, K2 is available in two levels of
transparency (3 & 5% openness factor) 7 colours, in a 2.5m width.
