Why Barrisol® is Phthalate Free...

​Phthalate is a chemical material used as a plasticiser. It is found in building and furniture materials, some household products, food packaging, cosmetics, toys and medical equipment. This micropollutant is known for its toxic effects on the endocrine and reproductive systems. It can also be accused of harmful effects on the central nervous system during the neuropsychological development of children . For more than 50 years, the entire Barrisol® company has been guided by a responsible approach for the well-being and health of all! All Barrisol® products are phthalate-free! Healthy materials, 100% recyclable products, classified A+, conform to strict European and international standards concerning fire safety. Barrisol® solutions are made with 40% to 80% recycled - Barrisol.com

Barrisol featured in The Irish Times

1/4/2021

0 Comments

 
As we bring in the new year we can't help but to be uplifted by the realization that spring is just around the corner.

​Today we discovered a reference to Barrisol in an online article called "Up the Walls" in The Irish Times. It featured a Barrisol Artolis wall print with gorgeous flower blooms. Another reminder of spring.
Picture
Here is an excerpt...
​
"Barrisol, a French company that specialises in digitally-printed stretch materials, provides dramatic ceiling scapes and back drops that look as if they have been painted in situ. Much of its work is in commercial spaces such as offices, hotels and conference centres where its stretched fabric works with lighting schemes and acoustic panelling to create different ambiences.
​
But the fabric panels can also be used to gorgeous effect in domestic settings. The range of patterns on offer is mind-boggling thanks to a partnership with the French textile museum, Musée de l’Impression sur Étoffes, which has around six million designs in its archive collected since 1833. Blow-ups of the patterns accentuate the design for more unusual effects."

September marks the return of the school year so we wanted to feature one of our favorite Barrisol school installations.

Mulgrave School in West Vancouver features 14 suspended white triangular ceilings, 2 back lit leaf shaped ceilings, and 1 back lit round ceiling. The white triangular ceilings contain tiny micro perforations that turn sound waves into heat energy. Barrisol's micro-perforated fabrics are used to target adjust sound absorption and room reverberation time.

Barrisol Ceiling - The ARC - Dailyhive.com

The printed and back lit Barrisol ceiling, at the ARC Vancouver, can be seen in the recent Dailyhive.com news article, "There's now a surreal 200-ft high, glass-bottom pool in downtown Vancouver", by Kenneth Chan.

Article Excerpt:
"While the pool is certainly the centrepiece of the tower’s design, it is enhanced by a colourful ‘Ode to Canada’ ceiling design. During nighttime, the illuminated pool, with light bouncing off the ceiling, turns the underside int​o a beacon for the tower." -Kenneth Chan

Here are 4 excellent examples of printed Barrisol ceilings. Printing is completed in France prior to the ceiling being shipped. The membrane will go through the printer 3 times to allow for excellent print quality. Barrisol has a variety of stock images (both free and with a charge) or you can provide your own image. Choose an opaque fabric or a translucent fabric (so the image can be back lit).
