Diatex brings new tent lining fabric to market

24/07/2014
French technical fabrics manufacturer Diatex has produced a new thin insulating fabric for tent linings.

Consisting of polyester, wadding and aluminium, this padded textile combines flexibility, lightness and strength, while providing thermal insulation in summer and winter thanks, partly, to a five-layer composition, the company has said. There is also a washable three-layer version.

In addition, this new product offers many benefits such as foldability, fire-resistance, thermal insulation, making it possible to dramatically reduce the energy required for cooling and heating.

The textile and insulating wadding used in the manufacture of this product are both classed as compliant with Oeko-Tex Standard 100. Diatex has said some buyers now demand that products comply with Oeko-Tex certification.
