2023年12月29日 · In the realm of contemporary architecture, the use of Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) in skylights and facades has surged, thanks to its lightweight, translucency, and durability.

2024年7月15日 · ETFE (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) is widely used for skylights because of its strong, transparent, and lightweight characteristics. To achieve optimal results when designing an architectural ETFE skylight, it is crucial to take into account several best practices.

ADAS® ETFE Skylight is an ideal construction material for tensile, free form architecture. Unlike glass, which is brittle and limited by its weight and span, ETFE is highly flexible and can be shaped into complex curvature without losing any architectural integrity.

Skylights; Facades; ETFE foil demands less structural steel support than traditional glazed systems, resulting in an easier installation, and typically a lower cost alternative. It is often considered a value-engineered option over glass roofing.

2024年1月31日 · Natural Lighting: ETFE boasts high translucency, transmitting up to 95% of light, making it perfect for projects requiring high light and UV transmission, such as large-span roofing, skylights, and facades. Additionally, ETFE film absorbs most infrared light, which can be harnessed to improve a building’s energy efficiency.

2025年1月12日 · ETFE membrane structures skylights and façades represent a leap forward in architectural innovation. Their combination of durability, energy efficiency, and design versatility makes them a compelling choice for modern buildings.

To build an ETFE Canopy, you will need to go through four main processes: Design, Engineering, Fabrication and Installation.

We have created ETFE roofing, ETFE skylights and ETFE facades for stadiums, shopping centres, leisure and recreation centres, health-care facilities, schools and universities, walkways, and distinctive public shade structures.

ETFE is an ideal material for atriums and skylights for 3 key reasons; lightweight construction, high light transmission, and thermal insulation. ETFE films can be highly transparent (from 90% to 95%), allowing natural daylight into a building through a skylight.

ADAS® ETFE Skylight is a high-quality integrated system using ETFE (Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) film, which is a highly transparent, strong, and durable lightweight material that functions similarly to architectural glazing.
