Black Molton B1: what is it used for?
Black Molton B1 is used wherever light needs to be absorbed as much as possible and a visually clean, matte surface is required – particularly in stage and exhibition environments:
- Backdrops / stage backdrops and side wings (low-reflection, reduced stray light)
- Technical masking (truss, control desks, flight cases, podium and stage fronts)
- Temporary blackout and light control (booths, partitions, enclosures)
- Masking / visual screening in public event areas
Buy black Molton fabric: selection criteria
Anyone looking to buy black Molton fabric should clarify the following points in particular:
Area weight (grammage): affects density, durability and blackout performance.
Width: greater widths reduce seams and installation effort on large surfaces.
Duration of use: touring / short-term vs. permanent use (UV exposure, soiling, wear).
Visual requirements: “black box” effect, low reflectivity, batch consistency (for critical projects: sampling).
Practical note: The designation “B1” originates from the German standard DIN 4102 and is often used in the market as a synonym for flame-retardant Molton. Today, depending on the application, the relevant standards are primarily EN 13773 and classification according to EN 13501-1. What matters therefore is not the short designation “B1”, but the correct material specification for your project and the corresponding documentation / test certificates.

What does “black Molton B1” mean?
Black Molton B1 refers to black Molton fabric used as flame-retardant material for public applications. What matters is the right specification for your project and the corresponding documentation / certificates.
Buying black Molton B1: what should I look out for?
Pay attention to area weight, width, duration of use (touring vs. permanent) and the desired visual appearance (low reflectivity). For critical visual requirements (e.g. batch consistency), sampling is recommended.
Buying black Molton fabric: which version is best for backdrops?
For backdrops, stage Molton is often chosen as Molton fabric B1: robust, matte and proven in practice. If installation needs to be extremely fast, roll Molton is often the better choice. For lightweight decoration without maximum blackout performance, deco Molton may be suitable.
Is black Molton B1 light-tight?
Black Molton offers very good light absorption, but no version is completely light-tight. Whether a surface appears “fully” light-tight depends on grammage, installation (overlaps, pleating) and incident light. For maximum blackout, denser qualities of other materials and clean overlaps are decisive.
Why choose roll Molton made from black Molton B1?
Roll Molton saves time and improves appearance during installation: no crease marks thanks to rolled delivery, finished widths (depending on the version, from 20 cm) and cut or overlocked edges for immediate, installation-ready use – ideal for touring and short-term installations.
Flame-protected Molton / flame-retardant Molton – is it the same?
Both terms are commonly used as search terms for flame-retardant Molton. For safe project use, it is essential that the specification matches the application and that the required documentation (e.g. according to EN 13773, DIN 4102 or EN 13501) is available.
Can TÜCHLER fabricate Molton fabric B1?
Yes – cutting and fabrication (eyelets, sleeves, hook-and-loop fastener, weighting, special shapes) are carried out in-house, project-specific and ready for installation.
