Z-type

A very beautiful and elegant shape built to the most exacting standards and sold with a written guarantee, Z-Type envelopes are popular with corporate and private purchasers. Computer designed to a natural mathematical form which gives zero horizontal stress, the loads are carried not by the fabric but by multiple, closely spaced, vertical tapes.

Envelope deflation is via a standard parachute up to size 140; Lock Top 160 to 315. Hyperlast, the only balloon fabric that is silicone coated on both sides to increase envelope life by up to 50%, is optional.

Nineteen standard fabric colours - plus silver and gold - are available. Fabric can also be dyed to meet special requirements.

A comprehensive range of baskets is available with the Z-Type together with the world's widest choice of burners, including the ultra-quiet Stealth, generally used in combination with a Shadow in a double, triple or quad unit.
