As the demand for dynamic, multi-functional spaces grows, few materials offer the durability and versatility these environments require more than coiled wire fabric. And with fully engineered solutions boasting near limitless design options, manufacturers like Cascade Architectural have dramatically simplified the design process through their versatile range of pre-engineered, customizable attachment systems.

With draped, tensioned, or fully framed solutions for organic or rectilinear designs, straight or curved track systems, and manual or motorized operation for track-mounted systems, designers can easily maximize performance and functionality in any application without compromising the beauty coiled wire fabric brings to every environment.

Fabricoil’s rising popularity can be attributed as much to its flexibility and versatility as to its beauty. Featuring a simultaneously open and closed spiral weave pattern, the lightweight and acoustically transparent material offers unparalleled flexibility and control without restricting airflow, and panels can easily be spliced together to seamlessly span extreme distances.

Moreover, base wire materials and standard finishes from Cascade are all Red List Free, making Fabricoil 100 percent salvageable/reusable at end-of-life and the optimal solution for meeting stringent sustainable building criteria. Easy to install and requiring little to no maintenance (as the open nature of the material tends to shed dust naturally), the durable, high-performance, UV- and flame-resistant finishes will not fade or darken over time.

The most popular interior applications of coiled wire fabric in 2024 include:

  •  Dividing spaces with fixed partitions to sculpt open spaces and control the flow of traffic without impeding sight lines or ventilation
  • Segmenting open spaces with operable partitions to offer privacy and separation while maintaining flexibility
  • Accentuating areas by adding movement and texture through artistic elements like organic ceiling or wall treatments that interplay beautifully with light and can even serve as media projection surfaces
  • Securing areas without sacrificing design—from security gates at retail entrances to lockable screens securing inventory in restaurants, retail displays, and more

And for exteriors, coiled wire fabric’s versatility and durability persists, making it an ideal system for solar shading solutionsventilated facade systemsparking structures, fall protection, mechanical screening, water features, and more.
