ETFE Foil: A Guide to Design - Architen Landrell
ETFE foil is a naturally translucent material and transmits light across the entire visible light region (380-780nm). A single layer of medium weight ETFE has a light transmission of approximately 90-95% light transmission, with only a small reduction when multiple layers are added.
Texlon® ETFE Solutions in Architecture - Vector Foiltec
The Texlon ® ETFE system can be used wherever there is need for a high performance, long life, building envelope. You can meet your acoustic, climatic and architectural requirements with ETFE, as it is suitable for all climates and environments.
Vector Foiltec. Pioneer of Texlon® ETFE for the building industry
World records, architectural masterpieces and even moveable structures - all built with Vector Foiltec's Texlon ® ETFE. Texlon ® ETFE is a flexible and lightweight solution for many buildings. Sound generated by building occupants passes through the ETFE foil and is not reflected back into the space below.
ETFE: Why this Building Material is Gaining Popularity
ETFE foil is essentially a plastic polymer related to Teflon and is created by taking the polymer resin and extruding it into a thin film. It is largely used as a replacement for glazing due to its high light transmission properties.
Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) Foil Design & Consulting
ETFE, a material fluorocarbon-based polymer ethylene tetrafluoroethylene, is quickly gaining popularity in North America and being used on some of the continent’s most innovative and prominent projects.
ETFE Foil - Architen Landrell
Ethylene Tetra Fluoro Ethylene (ETFE) is a clear polymer that is extruded into a thin film (or foil) which is used to form either a single layer membrane or multi-layer cushions supported in an aluminium perimeter extrusion. Lasting 35+ years, ETFE is built to last.
ETFE Foil is naturally a very transparent material and transmits light across the entire visible light region (380-780nm). A single layer of medium weight ETFE has an approximate 85% light transmission, although multiple layers will lead to a small reduction.
Ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene, better known by its acronym ETFE, offers designers a remarkable solution that integrates modern lightness, durability, design and ecological values. ETFE foil is a chemically inert material and resists all chemical agents combining surface tension and provides great resistance to all environmental pollution.

ETFE — Structurflex
Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) is a fluorine-based plastic polymer that offers a creative and lightweight alternative to glass. Developed over 40 years ago, ETFE has a similar light transmission to glass, but at just 1% of the weight.
