UFABRIK textile specified for British F1 Grand Prix

At the recent Formula 1 event at Silverstone, home of the British Grand Prix and one of the most iconic motorsports venues in the world, UFABRIK Water & Airtight Tent Textile took the centre stage. It was the material of choice for the manufacture of several event gazebos that conjured the visual energy and excitement of an F1 workshop. Each gazebo featured detailed high-resolution graphics of an F1 workshop, providing an immersive experience for attendees. Specifically designed for outdoor use, this project showcases why UFABRIK Water & Airtight Tent Textile is trusted by top global brands for the high-quality production of tents, pavilions, marquees, gazebos, and canopies. Gazebos were printed using an EFI VUTEk FabriVU 340 dye sublimation printer and a Klieverik calendar press by Colourgraphics, based in Walsall, West Midlands, UK.

UFABRIK Water & Airtight Tent Textile offers a unique combination of specifications. Its 350gsm/10oz woven heavyweight yarn is highly engineered to withstand the elements, which at pre-fixation can resist a column of water that is 2000mm (2m) high before water will begin to penetrate. Post-fixation water resistant levels are 1200mm. This textile is also characterized by a Lotus effect composition that repels moisture, keeping structures dry and secure. Available in 126” (3.2m) and up to a length of 109 yards, it’s PVC-free, reflecting a commitment to sustainability whilst ensuring strength and durability.
