VERSEIDAG - INDUTEX

Membrane structure for the new Green Point Stadium, Cape Town, South Africa

The recently built new Green Point Stadium in Cape Town, South Africa, presents a new dimension of airiness in modern architecture. This high level of sophistication from an aesthetics point of view had to be combined with very high levels of technical demands in many aspects. For this reason the technical textiles from Verseidag- Indutex’s duraskin® brand were the material of choice to build the façade of the stadium roof. This material combines high tenacity polyester yarn with a special PVC coating to provide architects with a material balancing optimum mechanical strength, translucency longevity and special acoustical properties. The product is now also available in a digitally printable version and used for both under ceilings as well as façades.
