This fabric is a PVDF coated (Teflon) waterproof membrane imported from Germany. Unlike other PVC's, Mehler 8506T is PVDF coated on one side, providing unparalleled self cleaning ability. Commonly, dust and grime will disappear with the first solid rain.

We manufacture these membranes without any stitching as the panels are welded together. This ensures that degradation in stitching is not a problem.
