Serge Ferrari’s STFE is a new flexible composite membrane that offers an outdoor feel with indoor protection. With applications for atriums, walkways, skylights and stadiums, the lightweight polyarylate mesh is 10 times lighter than glass and provides structural strength for large free-span designs, minimizing the need for additional supporting structure and steel cables. As a building skin, it provides 50% light transmission, creating a glass-like effect with minimal glare and optimal daylighting performance to improve occupant comfort and support plant growth. Guaranteed to last for more than 30 years.
