Press Room: Vector Foiltec Texlon ETFE seamlessly combines design and functionality

Vector Foiltec Texlon ETFE seamlessly combines design and functionality

Demand for Vector Foiltec's Texlon® ETFE single membrane technology is growing. This technology is fast evolving whereby aesthetics and functionality are paramount. The six canopies at Tottenham Hale bus station are a testament to this.

Canopies at Tottenham Hale

In spite of relatively high snow and water loads in the region, Vector Foiltec was able to help optimise the design to alleviate ponding issues. Each canopy comprises four foil panels that are welded together and supported by radial cables. The radial cables enhance the design without overpowering the appearance of the canopies.

Vector Foiltec’s design and engineering experience combined with Texlon® ETFE’s properties has transformed single membrane technology into a cost effective solution for canopies and buildings where thermal performance is not a concern.
