Fiberglass screen is the most common type of screening material used, however polyester screen is becoming more common for many reasons. There are three main factors that might make you change your mind about which type of screen meets your needs.

Better Visibility

Super Screen offers better visibility with little to no distortion. It also contains UV resistance so that it will maintain its color for years. Studies have shown that dark colors of mesh are the best for optical clarity by reducing glare.

Durable

Super screen is incredibly strong. The tensile strength of fiberglass screen is 78.8 pounds of force where super screen is 112.5 pounds of force. This is not to say fiberglass screen is not strong, however, fiberglass materials deteriorate eventually with prolonged sun exposure. In one study, after 7 years Super Screen only lost 1% of its tensile strength. Even with pets pawing at the screen, many customers report that they don’t see claw marks on the screen. The puncture resistance and tear strength work together to create a material that is resilient.

Resistance to Mildew

Within the polyester formula, there is a biocide compound included. This resists mildew growth, making Super Screen last much longer and retain its coloring and elasticity. The manufacturer of Super Screen has a Gold status from GREENGUARD^TM, certifying low chemical emissions. They ensure their products are free from harmful volatile organic compounds and is safe for your family and pets.

With all of these benefits, Super Screen is a great option for a timeless screen door for your home! Whether you have pets, children, or grandchildren, this option can eliminate your worries about damage and let you simply enjoy your new screen door.
