This month, we celebrate kite season with our Cerf Volant – the perfect material for kite making! Cerf Volant is a technical material composed of 100% Nylon with a PU coating.

The material is woven into a square pattern, with extra reinforcement threads that are placed within the weave at certain increments, usually 1/8 inch or smaller, to stop a tear or rip from continuing beyond the first square, hence, the common name given: “ripstop.” It is both super lightweight (48 gr/m2) and extremely airtight. There is also a high water resistance due to an FOA-free PU coating on both sides, ensuring there is almost no water absorption.

Available in roll format with a width of 150 cm, 48 gr/m2 weight and a thickness of 0.09 mm. Cerf Volant comes in 13 strong colours.

Cerf Volant is perfect for PLV, windows, object design, fashion, and design applications.
