Fabric Covered Buildings
are Brighter Inside
than Conventional Structures
MBD
Buildings DuraWeave covers are translucent and allow a
tremendous amount of natural sunlight in, plus they help
retain cool air inside the building.
This provides a very pleasant and evenly lit, shadow-free
area that is unlike a conventional building such as steel or
wood, which need artificial lighting resulting in many
shadows and dark corners.
Even on cloudy days, fabric covered buildings do not require
daytime artificial lighting. A steel or wood building would
need thousands of watts in lighting to compare to the
brightness of one of our structures.
"The artificial lighting requirements in fabric covered
buildings are less than half of what we require in our
conventional buildings. Even with fewer lights, the fabric
buildings have more light per-candle-foot than our other
buildings and the lights are on for only 30 percent of the
time versus 100 percent of the time in our wood
warehouses." Don Friesen – Coldstream Lumber
As you can see in the left hand side of
the above picture, inside the wood building during daylight
hours has artificial lighting.
The right hand side of the picture above
is the inside a fabric covered building during daylight
hours with no artificial lighting.
The picture at the top of the page shows
several insides of fabric covered buildings that have just
the sun's daylight flowing through.
