CLEAR THE STAGE FOR THE MOLTON!
It's that extraordinary moment. The moment just before the Molton curtain rises and the audience fixes its eyes on the still covered stage - eager to see what is hidden behind the opaque Molton fabric.
This is the moment when the stage curtain plays the leading role, because a Molton stage fabric can take on any theatre!
Molton fabrics take on the leading role: stage molton and decorative molton
Our available molton fabrics in detail:
Stage molton for the big performance - stage molton R 55
When stage designers want to buy stage molton, further demands are placed on the stage molton. Because where stage molton is to play the leading role as a curtain or backdrop, it needs special properties.
Properties of R 55 stage molton
- Can be made up individually or as stage molton by the metre
- Grammage from 300 to 325 g/m²
- twill weave
- Opaque and minimal light transparency (in the colour stage molton black)
- Sound absorption for improved acoustics
- double-sided napped cotton
- wide range of colours, also in individual RAL or Pantone colours
- Flame-retardant finish in accordance with DIN 4102-B1 Corresponds to the building material class and is intended for use in the event sector and in public facilities. Molton B1 therefore complies with the fire protection regulations set out in the relevant venue regulations. However, if the stage molton made of pure construction wool is cleaned or washed, stored damp or above a room temperature of 30°C, it must be re-impregnated to make it flame-retardant again, as the fire retardant does not migrate into the fabric. Heavy mechanical stress, such as the constant opening and closing of the Molton curtain, also counteracts the flame protection.
