What makes the HG102 SHS different from conventional architectural membranes?
While standard membranes focus primarily on structural performance, the HG102 SHS features advanced heat-shielding technology that reflects over 85% of infrared radiation. This drastically reduces the heat load on both the structure itself and the people beneath it.
What is the material construction of the HG102 SHS?
The membrane is built using Hiraoka’s proven PVDF Coating over a PVC-and-polyester base.
Where is this membrane best suited for use?
It is engineered for medium to large-scale architectural structures. It is highly recommended for regions facing extreme sun and heat, such as Australia’s tropical north, arid interior, and high-exposure coastal zones.
How easy is it to fabricate and install the HG102 SHS?
Fabrication is highly efficient. The HG102 SHS welds cleanly without requiring abrasion. This reduces workshop labor time while ensuring consistent, high-quality seam integrity across large installations.
