THE NEW GENERATION OF INDUSTRY LEADING KUBICEK POLYESTER LIGHT BRINGS MORE BENEFITS THAN EVER
Kubíček Polyester Light is the perfect choice for pilots who don't fly daily.
With an incredible weight of just 45g/m2 | 1.3 oz, Kubíček Polyester Light means a decrease in the envelope's weight by up to 30 % compared to our Kubíček Polyester fabric.
Kubíček Polyester light is VERY easy to handle and works perfectly with Special Shapes.
What’s more, Kubíček Polyester Light boasts a lifetime of up to 500 hours while keeping all the advantages of Kubíček Polyester!
Those are:
- High temperature resistance - the fabric exposed to higher temperatures degrades very slowly, so you don't need to worry about shortened life when overheated!
- Colour stability. Colours stay bright and shiny during the balloon’s lifetime. Colour bleeding is non existent.
- Repels dust and dirt. Your envelope will not attract dust and dirt everytime it comes into contact with sandy or dusty ground.
- No need to worry abouth packing a wet balloon. Polyester will not mildew or develop a rank odor when packed away wet. However, it is good practice to open bag and let the balloon air out within a few days.
- Greater airtightness, resulting in lower gas consumption. It really does make a noticeable difference.
- You will really appreciate its „soft touch“ surface, making the packing process much more comfortable.
Kubíček Polyester Light fabric is now even BETTER. Our fellow ballonists can now enjoy a tear strength that’s almost 3x stronger, higher eco-friendliness and much improved moisture resistance.
