Stahl Integra® Blackout: a window of opportunity
Rising to the challenge of halogen-free fire protection
Many surfaces we interact with daily, such as the clothes we wear, the seats we sit on and even the buildings we live in, have been treated with a flame-retardant coating for our safety.
However, growing environmental and health concerns around halogen-based chemical formulations have led to calls for alternatives to these traditional solutions. There is a clear need for low-impact, halogen-free coatings that offer the same level of performance.
Stahl's high-performing, low-impact speciality coatings are designed to meet the needs of today’s market. That's why we’re proud to introduce the new Stahl Integra® Blackout range of halogen-free, flame-retardant coatings for light-blocking window decorations such as curtains and blinds.
More privacy, fewer additives
When we close the curtains at night, we want to be sure that the product protecting us from light, sight, heat and even fire is not causing us harm in other ways. Window decorations must balance flame-retardant and light-blocking effects with environmentally friendly manufacturing practices.
Stahl's Integra® Blackout range is versatile solution that uses fewer additives while delivering superior flame-retardant and mechanical properties with the same dry weight.
A solution based on deep expertise
The Stahl Integra® Blackout coatings technology leverages Stahl’s track record in polymer-driven solutions to create a finish specially engineered for light-blocking window decorations.
Our solution consists of a single-layer black flame-retardant coating paired with a one-third-layer white coating. The result is enhanced opacity and light-blocking effects, with a significantly reduced dry-coating weight.
