For applications in the industrial markets, here are some of the reasons why a fabric duct may be the best solution:

Condensation Resistant and Anti-Microbial Control
Fabric ducts won’t sweat like metal ducts when conveying cold air. That means there are fewer problems with mold and corrosion. Also, fabric ducts can be treated for anti-microbial control when the application have high hygiene standards.
