Complex Elliptic Form

Architectural Design & Research of HIT and Nadel & Hwa Associates selected Texlon® ETFE as the cladding for this complex elliptic form of DaLian stadium. And why? Texlon® ETFE has an exceptionally long life span and is low maintenance. Further, it self-cleanses under the action of rain. This makes it an ideal option for large projects such as stadiums in terms of efficiency and maintenance.

Individual Texlon® ETFE Panels Reduce Supporting Steelwork

Individual Texlon® ETFE panels can be patterned to virtually any shape or size – depending on local site conditions – to create individual and stunning venues. This feature, combined with its exceptional durability and low maintenance, made Texlon® ETFE cladding the natural choice to cover the stunning elliptic DaLian Sports Centre Stadium. The large panel size allowed for a reduction in the supporting steelwork and associated aluminum extrusions.

Design and Environmental Factors

The Texlon® ETFE cladding system combines creativity and individual design, technology, and sustainability. In the same vein, Vector Foiltec takes the lead in developing methods that add economic, environmental and social value to communities and industry. A great combination for your next project.

Further, we pride ourselves on being the first Texlon® ETFE manufacturer with an independently-verified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) in accordance with ISO 14025:2006 and EN15804. An EPD is a voluntary document, focusing on the environmental impacts associated with the manufacturing of a product or syste. It demonstrates that a product has been subjected to rigorous testing to ensure quality.
