The E Screen is manufactured from PVC coated fiberglass and is the best choice for transparency while maximizing solar protection. Fiberglass yarns are manufactured from natural minerals (quartz, sand, soda and lime) which are non-toxic. Fabrics made from glass fibers, either coated or not, are endowed with all of the artificial mineral's intrinsic properties.
E Screen 5% Openness and 10% Openness are commonly used in applications where the view is an asset. Both are engineered with a finer tex yarn, providing much improved visibility.

3G Mermet E Screen is Greenguard certified.
Product certification program for low emitting interior building materials, furnishings, and finish systems. All GREENGUARD Certified Products have been tested for their chemical emissions performance.
Energy Efficient E Screen, a fabric woven with a "finer tex yarn" will provide better visibility outwardly. Glass fiber shade fabrics are produced with a much finer yarn than polyester. The result is more yarn per square inch of fabric. For comparable openness factors, the visibility is much better using finer yarns. Visually, the eye does not focus on the yarns, but outward through the solar fabric panel. E Screen is engineered with a "finer tex yarn," providing much improved visibility.

Definition of Terms
TS - (Solar Transmittance) The percentage of solar energy passing through the fabric.
RS - (Solar Reflectance) The total amount of heat that is reflected back out of the window glass. Reflected heat is reflected outward and will not heat up the room.
AS - (Solar Absorptance) The percentage of solar energy that the fabric absorbs.
TV - (Visible Transmittance) The percentage of visible light passing through the fabric. It is related to the amount of glare a person receives through a glazing system.
