2 INNOVATION What motivates me most are the challenges of the construction industry, encountered every day by architects, planners and technicians. In SYSTEXX by Vitrulan we have developed a system of functional and ecological wall coverings which set new standards for walls and ceilings. FRIEDHELM SCHWENDER / GENERAL MANAGER, SALES & MARKETING Over the years, Vitrulan has established an excellent reputation as a manufacturer of textile glass products.

4 Architects only use building materials they can rely on, so it s a good thing that TÜV-tested wall coverings are now available. There are no better places to test how much a wall covering can withstand than stairwells, hallways or corridors, where constant impact, from transporting items for example, is the order of day. FROM SCHOOLS TO KINDERGARTENS Wherever walls need to be durable, Systexx is the most economical solution, thanks to its long life and low maintenance costs. 02 FROM COMPANY BUILDINGS TO AIRPORTS Combined with the appropriate coating systems, Systexx complies with the most stringent fire protection standards and sets new standards in the design of company buildings, airports or football stadiums. 03 FROM OFFICES TO CITY HALLS Systexx wall and ceiling coverings give rooms a pleasant feel and serve many different functions such as stabilising lightweight partition walls

5 Environmental awareness is extremely important in interior design. After all, our environment starts right where we work, eat, play and sleep. Systexx wall and ceiling coverings are proven to be as harmless to our health as baby clothing is to our skin, having undergone 5 health-related tests run by the TÜV NORD and the Öko-Tex-Institut. They are ideal for decorating areas subject to high demands on hygiene, where a covering which is easy to clean will out-perform standard wall coverings FROM DOCTORS SURGERIES TO OPERATING THEATRES Even in highly sensitive areas, the joins in tiled walls can be exploited by bacteria, but Systexx has a completely sealed surface which, when combined with 2k coatings, can withstand repeated scrubbing and wiping with strong disinfectants. 02 FROM BAKERIES TO ABATTOIRS As a food-safe and particularly easy-clean* wall covering, Systexx is an economical compromise between tiles and bare walls. 03 FROM HOSPITALS TO RETIREMENT HOMES Since it contains no hazardous agents and is even suitable for allergy sufferers, Systexx ensures more than just a cosy design in hospitals and retirement homes. * DEPENDING ON SUITABLE COATING SYSTEMS.

6 EXAMPLE: HOTEL Health facilities in the basement, board meetings on the ground floor or luxurious nights spent in the penthouse suite: hotels serve many needs. Now architects can meet them all with one single wall covering FROM SPAS TO BATHROOMS Wherever there are high levels of humidity, Systexx by Vitrulan is elegant, water-repellent and easy to clean when combined with an appropriate coating. 02 FROM KITCHENS TO STOREROOMS Systexx by Vitrulan is certified for use in food-processing areas, making it ideal for hotel and industrial kitchens alike. 03 FROM RESTAURANTS TO RECEPTION AREAS Durable and aesthetic, Systexx can be interwoven with bespoke designs and logos to bring a touch of exclusivity to hotels, restaurants and trendy bars. Stylish and elegant with timeless designs, distinctive and cheerful with large-format patterns or simple and subtle with a smooth surface: our innovative Jacquard weaving technique guarantees variety of design and a high-quality look. Yet because rooms and their functions must never be overlooked, Systexx s outstanding characteristics mean that it can be used for an extraordinary range of applications. This allows architects designing major hotels to use the same wall covering from the basement right up to the penthouse.

7 FEASIBILITY There are plenty of wall coverings available for commercial buildings. But only one that truly pays off in the long term. > Even when it is being applied to the wall, Systexx by Vitrulan ensures savings of up to 30% in time and money by dispensing with several steps. But the real cost benefit is provided in the long term: although lining fabric and PVC wallpaper are cheaper at the outset, they need to be renewed every 2 5 years if exposed to high levels of stress. With a long lifespan, lengthy renovation intervals and low maintenance costs, Systexx pays off in the long term. This is what makes this innovative wall covering system such an ideal solution for schools and other public buildings, for example. WHAT COSTS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH WALL COVERINGS IN THE LONG TERM? COSTS (EURO) WALLPAPER PVC WALLPAPER LINING FABRIC SYSTEXX TIME (YEARS) THE IDEAL COMPROMISE In food-processing businesses such as abattoirs or bakeries, tiles are often the only albeit expensive alternative to bare walls. This is where Systexx wall coverings represent a feasible compromise.
