Knitted steel fabric

by Swisstulle AG · Switzerland · MET326 · Published 15 Jun 2018
About this material

This knitted steel fabric consists of 95% steel and 5% Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH). The material can be customised to be thin, but is also very strong, and the fabric doesn’t break or fall apart. It’s non-flammable (A1 according to DIN 4102), chemically inert and features excellent dampening properties.

The fabric has high shielding effectiveness, is washable, and easy to process. It provides a safe solution for protective garments, for instance for fire protection or supporting material.
