Description

Hot-air balloon fabrics ans sailcloth

In high performance sports and also in everyday sports activities, you have to be able to rely on your equipment 100%.

‎That is why professional as well as amateur sailors and balloonists opt for our fabrics, which perform perfectly when it comes to making optimum use of the wind, testing their limits and utilising all possibilities. They are super lightweight and thin yet also extremely strong.

Many of the hot-air balloon envelopes used in numerous competitions are equipped with our high-tech fabrics. Our fabrics have also proved their worth in sailing – not least at one of the world's hardest regattas, the America's Cup.

Personal protective equipment

Safely protected in any situation

A broad spectrum of situations calls for personal protective equipment. It ranges from protective clothing for rescue and emergency services to protective workwear and special leisure activity and sports clothing. Technical fabrics must therefore meet an equally wide range of challenging requirements. Getzner has many years of experience in this area and its fabrics comply with numerous standards. The in-house brands SR-Flameprotect® and GUARDIANTEX® have made the company a valued partner for fire brigades, rescue services, police forces and the military for many years.

Our fabrics are used to manufacture the cleanroom garments that are worn in the watchmaking or in the automotive industry, for example, and also in the medical field. They help to maintain a 100% sterile environment and to prevent contamination. They are also an effective barrier against blood and other fluids.

In sports, on the other hand, they are used for motorcyclists' clothing to prevent abrasions in the event of contact with the ground as a result of an accident. However, regardless of the domain they are used in and the requirements they must meet: Getzner offers a wide range of different fabrics for further processing. If specific requirements go beyond the existing portfolio, we are happy to develop customised solutions.
