Color Line of Decorative Shade Fabrics Adds Value to Commercial Markets

Mermet USA has announced the reorganization of its decorative shade fabrics collection with a consolidated S Screen color line. Mermet regularly evaluates evolving color trends, fabric popularity and sales performance to continue to provide innovative shading solutions. As part of these efforts, Mermet has merged its two S Screen collections, Elements and Origins, to create a singular offering.

Manufactured with recycled yarn, S Screen is a 4 percent openness, vinyl-coated fiberglass fabric made from materials which would typically go to landfill. Yarn left over in the weaving process is combined to create the woven wood and grass-cloth looks that characterizes the S Screen fabric texturized offering. The consolidated line now features 12 of the colors from the predecessor collections: porcelain, marble, sea salt, peppercorn, granite, ginger, cork, papyrus, nougat, jute, coffee bean and sesame.

In addition to its aesthetic benefits, S Screen meets the performance criteria of an advanced sun control fabric and
supports the movement towards integrated glazing systems. S Screen can further enhance building energy efficiency properties by reducing solar heat gain and allowing controlled visible light transmission to deliver optimal levels of daylighting and reduced glare. S Screen products are treated for bacterial and fungal resistant properties to resist stains, molds and mildew. These combined attributes are critical for building owners looking to create occupant friendly spaces with minimal environmental impact.
