Tecno 2%: Acoustic Roller Blind Fabric for Modern Architectural Interiors
Modern buildings face two persistent challenges: managing daylight and controlling noise. Tecno 2% has been developed specifically to address both.
Designed for architects, specifiers and commercial blind manufacturers, Tecno combines excellent acoustic performance with effective daylight management, visual comfort and commercial durability. The result is a specialist architectural screen fabric that actively contributes to healthier, more productive interior environments.
Unlike conventional screen fabrics that focus solely on solar control, Tecno supports broader wellbeing objectives by helping reduce sound reflection while maintaining visual comfort and external views.
Acoustic Comfort for Better Buildings
Noise is one of the most common causes of discomfort in contemporary commercial environments. Open-plan offices, educational buildings, collaborative spaces and public facilities often struggle with excessive reverberation and poor acoustic quality.
Tecno addresses this challenge through measurable sound absorption performance of αw 0.45 and NRC 0.45, allowing the fabric to contribute meaningfully to wider acoustic design strategies.
This helps create calmer, more comfortable environments where occupants can focus, communicate and collaborate more effectively.
- αw 0.45 acoustic absorption
- NRC 0.45 performance
- Supports workplace wellbeing
- Reduces sound reflection
- Improves occupant comfort
Acoustic Roller Blind Fabric for Modern Workspaces
Today's workplaces demand more than visual comfort. Employers increasingly recognise the importance of acoustic wellbeing in supporting productivity, concentration and employee satisfaction.
Tecno provides an effective solution by combining shading functionality with measurable acoustic performance. This allows a single product to address multiple building-performance objectives.
For architects and workplace designers, this creates additional value within every square metre of glazing.
2% Openness for Visual Balance
Tecno features a carefully engineered 2% openness factor that balances daylight management with outward visibility.
The fabric offers good visual contact in darker colours, very good daylight utilisation in lighter shades and effective glare management across the collection.
Occupants benefit from comfortable interior conditions without losing connection to the external environment.
Good Glare Control and Night Privacy
Excessive sunlight can create visual discomfort and reduce workplace effectiveness. Tecno provides good glare control while maintaining useful daylight access.
The fabric also delivers good night privacy across all colours, supporting occupant comfort and confidentiality where required.
This combination makes Tecno suitable for offices, educational buildings, healthcare facilities and public-sector environments.
Textile Appearance with Commercial Performance
Performance should not come at the expense of appearance. Tecno combines technical capability with a refined textile aesthetic that integrates naturally into contemporary interiors.
Its broad colour range allows designers to coordinate shading systems with wider interior design schemes while maintaining acoustic and visual performance.
The result is a fabric that supports both architectural ambition and operational functionality.

Why Architects Choose Tecno
Architects specify Tecno because it solves multiple challenges simultaneously. It provides acoustic comfort, daylight management, privacy and commercial durability within a single architectural fabric.
Its measured acoustic performance sets it apart from conventional screen fabrics, making it particularly valuable for modern workplaces, education projects and wellbeing-focused commercial buildings.
Most importantly, Tecno helps create spaces that sound better, feel better and perform better.
That is the purpose of Tecno.
