01
Light Transmission and Optical Properties
-
The Nevitec translucent membrane is specifically engineered for optimal light diffusion, offering a light transmission rate that typically ranges between 50% and 75%, depending on the specific finish and thickness. The micro-structure of the PVC ensures that light from backlit sources—such as LED modules or fluorescent tubes—is scattered evenly across the surface. This advanced diffusion capability completely eliminates visible light hotspots and harsh shadows, creating a uniform, glowing surface that accurately renders color temperatures without distortion.
-
Transmission Rate: 50% to 75%, highly dependent on the chosen thickness and finish.
-
Diffusion Mechanics: Micro-structured PVC actively scatters light to provide perfectly uniform surface illumination.
-
Visual Quality: Completely eliminates LED "spotting," shadow banding, and harsh glare.
-
Color Accuracy: Delivers true-to-life color rendering without distorting the underlying light source's color temperature.
02
Material Specifications and Mechanical Strength
-
Manufactured from high-quality plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), the membrane boasts an exceptionally lightweight profile, typically weighing between 180g and 250g per square meter with an average thickness of 0.17mm to 0.20mm. Despite its thin profile, the material possesses excellent tensile strength and elasticity. It is designed to be stretched uniformly by up to 10% during installation via application of heat, creating a perfectly flat, taut surface that retains its shape over time without sagging, tearing, or warping under normal structural tension.
-
Material Composition: Premium-grade plasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC).
-
Weight & Thickness: Ultra-lightweight at 180g – 250g/m², with a micro-profile of 0.17mm – 0.20mm.
-
Installation Elasticity: Thermally expandable; requires heat to stretch up to 10% for a secure fit.
-
Structural Memory: High tensile strength ensures the membrane retains a permanent, taut shape without sagging over its lifespan.

Fire Safety and Regulatory Compliance
Safety is a critical component of the Nevitec system, and the translucent PVC membrane is rigorously tested to meet stringent international building codes. It holds top-tier fire retardant classifications, typically achieving a Euroclass B-s1, d0 or ASTM Class A fire rating, meaning it does not sustain combustion or produce burning droplets in the event of a fire. Additionally, the material is environmentally safe, completely free of heavy metals and toxic phthalates, and compliant with standard indoor air quality certifications (such as an A+ emissions rating).
Fire Ratings: Achieves top-tier, non-flammable classifications including Euroclass B-s1, d0 and ASTM Class A.
Combustion Behavior: Self-extinguishing material that produces zero burning droplets during a fire event.
Chemical Safety: 100% free of hazardous heavy metals, toxic phthalates, and harmful additives.
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ): Certified with an A+ emissions rating, ensuring safe integration into commercial and residential breathing zones.
05
Environmental Resistance and Durability
The PVC composition makes this stretch membrane highly resilient to a variety of environmental factors, ensuring a long lifespan with minimal maintenance. It is 100% waterproof and acts as an effective vapor barrier, making it an ideal solution for high-humidity areas like indoor swimming pools, spas, and bathrooms where mold and mildew resistance are required. Furthermore, the surface is treated to be anti-static, which actively repels dust accumulation, allowing the illuminated ceiling to remain bright and clean with only occasional wiping using approved, non-abrasive cleaning agents.
Moisture Protection: 100% waterproof and acts as a highly effective vapor barrier.
Biological Resistance: Naturally repels mold, mildew, and fungal growth, making it ideal for high-humidity environments (spas, pools, bathrooms).
Dust Repellent: Features a specialized anti-static surface treatment to prevent dust accumulation and preserve brightness.
Maintenance Requirements: Exceptionally low maintenance; requires only occasional, gentle wiping with approved non-abrasive agents.
