ETFE Application Example

An example of an application is as a pneumatic panel to cover the exterior of the Allianz Arena soccer Stadium or the Beijing National Aquatics Center (aka the 2008 Olympic Water Cube) - the world's largest ETFE membrane (laminate) structure.
 
The Eden Project's panels are also made from ETFE, where the Tropical Island resort boasts 20,000 square meters of Windows made from this translucent material.
 
Another key use for ETFE is to cover electrical and fiber cabling used in high-stress, low-smoke toxicity, and high-reliability environments. Aircraft and spacecraft wiring is a prime example.
