Products & Services

The insect screen you barely see.

Transpatec® combines reliable insect protection with clear views, natural light, and exceptional airflow. The fabric is available in three variants, each developed for a different priority: maximum visibility, protection from tiny insects, or reduced pollen exposure.

All variants are manufactured in Germany and use a reinforced three-thread weave for lasting strength and dimensional stability.

Clearer views

With an 80% open structure, compared to approximately 65% for conventional screen fabrics, Transpatec® allows more natural light to enter. Its fine black threads and uniform mesh structure make the screen barely visible from both inside and outside.

More fresh air

Transpatec® provides up to 2.4 times more airflow than standard fiberglass screens. Its thread structure distributes air evenly across the surface and helps reduce turbulence.

Built to last

The patented weave and additional binding thread strengthen the open mesh. This helps the fabric withstand UV exposure, moisture, and changing temperatures while maintaining its shape and performance.

Stays cleaner longer

Transpatec® is available with a water-based anti-soiling finish that helps prevent dust and airborne particles from adhering to the mesh. Rain and airflow can remove much of the remaining buildup, reducing the need for maintenance.
