Revamped website as a reference tool for technical textiles.

After Mermet consolidated the group’s entire range of outdoor sun protection fabrics under a single umbrella brand and further centralized production, the company is now taking the next strategic step to optimize its operations. The specialist in technical sun protection fabrics is launching its completely revamped and expanded website: www.mermet.eu.com. It is intended to become the go-to platform for everything related to screen fabrics and technical textiles. In short: a high-performance and user-friendly reference tool for professionals in indoor and outdoor sun protection.

Multilingual, intuitive digital environment

No, this new website isn’t just a typical update. Mermet went much further than that. The structure and features were completely redesigned from the ground up. The process began by focusing on the day-to-day work of specifiers, assemblers, and installation companies. The result is an intuitive digital environment centered on technical information and product selection. This online tool is also available in six languages, making this knowledge accessible to the entire industry, anywhere in the world.

“The improved navigation is a major advantage. Under the ‘Fabrics’ section, users will find a clear and well-organized overview of the entire collection. Combined with an advanced

”Thanks to the advanced search function, they can quickly and precisely select solutions, using filters for thermal and visual performance, color, and fire reaction, among other criteria,“ explains Product & Communication Manager Ann Van Neer. ”This functional approach didn’t just come out of thin air; it’s inherent to the Mermet Group. After all, our companies—Copaco, Mermet, and Helioscreen—have long been recognized as pioneers in evaluating sunshade fabrics based on their performance. Measurable properties, such as thermal and visual comfort, have been central for years—far more so than mere aesthetics. We consistently adhere to European standards and standardized measurement methods. We are now extending that approach to our website as well. Users can immediately find detailed technical data sheets, performance data, and maintenance recommendations for each product and color. The Download Center brings together all relevant documentation—such as brochures and fire safety certificates—in one central location.”

Making Expertise Even More Accessible

Mermet also wants to make his expertise even more accessible. They are currently working on a comprehensive guide that explains—in a clear, understandable way, or in ‘plain language,’ as they like to call it—exactly how the performance characteristics, standards, and fire resistance of screen fabrics work. The specialist aims to present this guide in February 2027 at the R+T trade show in Stuttgart.

“With a strong focus on user experience, content, and knowledge sharing, our new website reaffirms our role as a leading partner in the sun protection industry,” Van Neer emphasizes. “This platform not only provides information but also helps professionals make more informed choices for every project. This tool is set to become a go-to resource for the future.”
