Anyone involved with attaching fabrics of all kinds to frames or structures might be interested in the unique fastening systems developed and supplied by V-Grip Pty Ltd. (www.vgrip.com). This is a fundamentally different technique which is self locking - the stronger the pull, the tighter the grip - yet it does not require any preparation of the fabric. No holes, grommets or stitching! Their website shows several different profiles to suit various applications for a number of industries. For reasonable sized projects they will develop special sections to suit the job.
Structural fabrics are becoming increasingly more popular and designers working with them will find that the V-Grip solutions can solve many otherwise difficult and expensive operations. The ease of installation and release can provide significant savings over more conventional fixing methods. The material costs are very competitive too.
