Benefits of textile based ventilation

Own laundry facilities.

All ventilation ducts must be maintained at some point, regardless of whether they are low impulse systems where the air diffuses through the surface and the dust is retained on the inside or high impulse systems where induction dust settles on the surface and around the supply openings. The advantage of a textile duct is that it can be easily removed and washed.

Advantages of maintenance.

A properly maintained textile based ventilation system ensures 20-25 years of trouble-free operation with a number of advantages:

• Lower energy consumption due to correct pressure loss and less clogging in the TBV duct.

KE Fibertec offers impact calculations of optimal washing interval.

• Healthier indoor climate, as the particulate matter and other airborne particles are retained and washed out during the washing process.

• Longer service life and as an extra benefit, the product warranty can be extended up to 15 years with an official KE Fibertec washing agreement.

Environmental washing process.

KE Fibertec offers a comprehensive maintenance program with own in-house laundries in most major markets. All washing programs have been developed in collaboration with leading suppliers and they ensure a gentle and environmentally correct washing process.

In addition, KE Fibertec offers a certified Antibacterial treatment without harmful silver ions.

Why textile based ventilation?

In principle a textile duct is a round, semi-round or quarter round duct made of a light-weight textile material instead of e.g galvanized steel, stainless steel or aluminium, designed for delivery and distribution of cooled or heated air.

Good indoor climate.

Textile ducts are very well-suited for efficient, uniform, and draught-free distribution of fresh air without ”dead zones”. Stale and stagnant air may cause fatigue and headache. KE Fibertec’s textile ducts create an efficient air change and a good indoor climate in schools, offices, shops, showrooms, and other types of rooms where many people are assembled.

Advantages of textile ducts

• Efficient air distribution and good

indoor climate

• Unique materials and colours

• Fire tested and approved materials

• Hygienic and easy to wash

• Great acoustic properties

• No condensation problems

• Quick installation and balancing

• Ergonomically advantageous

with low weight Flexibility and tailored solutions.

Flexibility and tailored designs characterise KE Fibertec’s textile based ventilation (TBV) solutions. Here you may freely choose the size that fits the architecture of the building the best. Also, you may choose from an almost unlimited range of system layouts, colours, materials, and whether the TBV system must be passive, hybrid, or active.

Unique materials and colours.

As the only manufacturer in the world we offer customised woven textiles from our own weaving mill. Our materials are designed for air distribution - not for tents or patio blinds when it comes to uniform air distribution, shrinkage after washing, colour-fastness, and not least best possible Dust Holding Capacity.

We offer a wide range of standard colours and in addition to that our textiles may be dyed in any desired colour according to a standard colour system (at extra cost).

Easy to transport and install.

Our materials weigh 260-330 g/m² which is much lighter than metal spiral ducts. Additionally, textile ducts are much easier to handle and transport as they are folded and packed in cartons of a maximum weight of 25 kg.

KE Fibertec’s suspension rails are delivered in exact lengths rendering installation easier and quicker than for similar systems.
