KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 30 -- AGC Inc, a Tokyo-based world-leading manufacturer of glass, chemicals and high-tech materials, announced its Fluon (R) ETFE fluoropolymer film has been installed on the roof of SoFi Stadium in the United States (US).
Opened in September this year, SoFi Stadium is home to two NFL teams, the Los Angeles Chargers and the Los Angeles Rams, and is scheduled to host major international sports events.
SoFi Stadium is designed to offer open air, with three venues covered by one giant roof. It is the largest stadium in the world installing a single-layer film as a complete roof system, according to a statement.
Fluon (R) ETFE film, a light-transmissive film developed and produced by AGC, is used in the cable net roof system. The single-layer membrane structure of Fluon (R) ETFE film creates a comfortable environment for the audience with a view of a clear blue sky.
In addition, a highly reflective ink printing process with long-term weatherability developed with proprietary AGC technology has been applied to achieve thermal insulation, creating a comfortable environment for the audience in the stadium.
Fluon (R) ETFE film is characterised by excellent heat and weather resistance, as well as optical transparency. It is used as a highly functional material in a wide range of fields, including electronics, aircraft, aerospace, and solar cells.
Under its ‘AGC plus’ management policy, the AGC Group is working to create products that add a ‘plus’ by providing ‘safety, security and comfort’ to society and ‘new value and functions’ for customers.
