CLEAR THE STAGE FOR MOLTON!

It's that extraordinary moment. The moment just before the Molton curtain rises and the audience fixes its eyes on the still covered stage - eager to see what is hidden behind the opaque Molton fabric.

It is the moment in which the stage curtain plays the leading role, because a Molton stage fabric can be used in any theatre!

Molton fabrics take on the leading role: stage molton and decorative molton

Our available molton fabrics in detail:

Stage molton for the big performance - stage molton R55

When stage designers want to buy stage molton, further demands are placed on the stage molton. Because where stage molton is to play the leading role as a curtain or backdrop, it needs special properties.

Properties of R55 stage molton

individually customisable or stage molton by the metre

grammage from 300 vis 325 g/m²

twill weave opaque and minimal light transparency (in the colour stage molton black)

sound absorption for improved acoustics

double-sided napped cotton

wide range of colours, also in individual RAL or Pantone colours

Flame-retardant finish in accordance with DIN 4102-B1 which corresponds to the building material class and is intended for use in the event sector and in public facilities. Molton B1 therefore complies with the fire protection regulations set out in the relevant venue regulations. However, if the stage molton made of pure construction wool is cleaned or washed, stored damp or above a room temperature of 30°C, it must be re-impregnated to make it flame-retardant again, as the fire retardant does not migrate into the fabric. Heavy mechanical stress, such as constantly opening and closing the Molton curtain, also counteracts the flame protection.
