We offer a quality solution


Based on years of experience and testing, we provide reliable fabric air duct systems for air distribution in train, tram and metro coaches and driver cabins. We can also resolve air distribution in buses, ships, aircraft, military, and other special vehicles.

PRODUCTS & APPLICATIONS

Our fabric air ducting systems are particularly suited for public transport vehicles. We can design and deliver air ducts for passengers' saloons and drivers' cabins of metros, trams, and trains, but also for buses, and military and other vehicles including ships. Our fabric air ducts are the most lightweight solution on the market. Installation is extremely quick and easy in comparison to traditional metal or rigid composite air ducts. Thanks to their low weight and compactness, they save significant installation, transport and storage costs.

OUR SERVICES

We provide solutions of the highest technical standard and deliver our clients support and expertise in every stage of the project. We are not mere air duct suppliers, but we also cooperate with our clients to develop specific tailor-made air conditioning solutions. We provide support in 3D modeling and making drawings. We design the airflow in the vehicle using our own software and also Fluent CFD software to ensure the best possible ventilation of the space. We test prototypes in our laboratory and measure all needed values.

MATERIALS

The fabrics used for air ducts have to meet the highest demands with regards to quality, technology, sustainability as well as certification. We only use materials that meet these criteria, most of which have been especially developed for air distribution systems in vehicles.

  • EN 45545-2 R1/HL3 & NFPA 130 certified
  • strength and durability
  • fire resistance
  • abrasion resistance
  • easy to clean
  • antibacterial
OUR FABRICS

AIR DISTRIBUTION

All our air duct systems are tailor-made to the customer’s precise requirements. Fabric air ducts are dimensionally adapted to spatial limitations, and we can also handle very complex shapes. Despite the limitations, we are still able to provide perfect air distribution to ensure a comfortable indoor environment for passengers.

  • uniform air distribution
  • custom-made airflow
  • variety of air outlet methods
  • removing air deflection
  • no additional regulation needed
  • CFD simulations

Check some of our references

➀ Heavy vehicle (too heavy air duct system)

➁ Slow and thus expensive installation of air ducts

➂ Poor and uneven air distribution in saloons and cabins

➀ The most lightweight air ducts on the market

Textile air ducts can save up to 90% weight in comparison with sheet metal ducting and also provide significant weight savings compared to composite air ducts. They can be easily handled and they represent a minimal load for vehicle structures.

➁ Fast installation

The installation of textile air ducting in vehicles is very easy and fast. It will take you only a fraction of the time you would need to assemble rigid (metal, composite) ducting.

➂ Airflow based on given requirements

The custom-designed combination of a large number of distribution elements provides the required, usually even, flow of air through a vehicle’s passenger saloons or driver‘s cabins.

➃ Comprehensive support

We offer comprehensive free technical support, such as 3D CAD modeling, preparation of drawing documentation, designing of air distribution elements on the air duct, and airflow calculations.

➄ Rich experience

With decades of experience in textile air ducts, we've developed unique expertise in designing effective solutions for vehicles. We've encountered and overcome numerous challenges, refining our products to ensure optimal performance and long-lasting reliability.
