KGS METALLIZED FABRICS FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC SHIELDING  

General
The Range and its Properties
Applications

In order to protect the environment and/or electronic devices from electromagnetic or radio-frequency interference, KGS has developed a specialized range of metallized textile products. The nickel plated products are based on a wide variety of fabrics. Here is a non-exhaustive list:

 
Monofilament polyester  
Multifilament polyester  
Non-woven fabrics  
Jersey  
and - as an exception to the synthetic fibre range - copper wire mesh  
Other fabrics like tulle, glass fibre mat, steel mesh, etc, can be metallized to order  
   
KGS metallized fabrics for EMI/RFI shielding offer the following features:  
  Excellent shielding performance
 
  Low specific weight  
  Mechanical flexibility  
  Permeability to air  
  Transparency to visible light (depending upon the type)  
  Conformability and ease to assembly: Metallized fabrics can be cut like plain textiles, applied on walls like wallpaper, assembled with a small glued or stitched overlap, be painted or covered with usual floor or wall coverings  
  Moderate installed cost due to this easy handling  
  Durability and resistance to corrosion
