Fire Performance of Different Membranes from Makmax AustraliaThere are four main categories of tensile membrane materials that yield results differently when it comes to fire performance. Each of these categories consists of a wide range of products from many manufacturers. Makmax Australia presents a simple table with sample results that present the typical material fire-testing performance for each main tensile membrane type. This is helpful in determining the appropriate material type for your project. It is important to note that the various tensile material membranes used by Makmax Australia have been subjected to Australian and International fire testing standards by the manufacturer. Generally, PTFE coated glass fibre membranes offer the best fire hazard properties, followed by ETFE foil, PVC polyester fabrics and finally woven HDPE shade cloth. The table below is only a guide, and within each product category, there will be a range of different results and performance outcomes.
