INNOVATION ABOUNDS AT DICKSON SAINT CLAIR

Innovation is key to the future success of Dickson Saint Clair as it supplements standard product lines, such as tarps, with innovative, value-added offerings. Some of the most recent innovations include:

• Sunblock – Dickson Saint Clair has created new finishes for its line of Sunblock fabrics, which are used for temporary structures. The new products offer an enhanced aesthetic, moving away from the more plastic look and feel of traditional vinyl.

• Arcade FR – This new flame-retardant product line, which is targeted for sun protection, was possible due to new weaving equipment that allows for lighter and thinner products. It offers an optimum balance of performance and good looks and is used for small tents and other sunprotection applications that demand flameretardant features.

• Sunworker Open – This new version of Sunworker solar-protection fabrics was launched in February during the international R+T show in Stuttgart. The new offering provides increased interior light penetration while retaining energy savings.

• Scroller fabrics – Scrolling advertisements at busy intersections are a popular form of outdoor advertising in Europe. Dickson Saint Clair has created a media fabric that combines excellent print quality with unmatched durability for use in scrollers.

• Product enhancements – Continual research and development is enhancing products from Dickson Saint Clair, including improved weldability for its tarp materials.

• RAL color standards – During the past year, Dickson Saint Clair adopted RAL color standards for Europe, which assure universal color matching for customers.

• Antibacterial bags – Responding to the needs of emergency response crews, Dickson Saint Clair offers a line of PVC fabrics with antibacterial qualities for the transport of medical equipment.

TOP AND CLOCKWISE Innovations from Dickson Saint Clair have been highly diverse, including scroller fabrics featured in advertising, antibacterial PVC materials used by emergency personnel for equipment transport and Sunworker solar protection fabrics, which include an expanded offering with a variety of light transmission qualities.
