BUILT FOR IMPACT

SCRIMS, SHEERS & VOILES

 

Create depth, mystery, and atmosphere with light.

Reveal’s Sharkstooth scrim, sheer fabrics, and creative voiles are designed for productions and spaces where light and transparency tell the story.

A scrim’s magic lies in how it reacts to light: front-lit, it appears opaque — backlit, it becomes transparent — creating dramatic reveals, layered depth, and stunning illusions.
Our voiles and sheers, on the other hand, offer a softer, more architectural transparency, often used in art installations, galleries, and large-scale events for a refined, sculptural look.

All materials are flame-retardant to Australian standards, custom-sewn to size, and finished for easy integration into existing track or rigging systems.

Highlights:

  • Available in Sharkstooth scrim, voile, and sheer fabric options

  • Perfect for lighting reveals, projections, and layered designs

  • Custom sizing and edge finishing for tensioned or hanging installs

  • Suitable for stage, studio, exhibition, and architectural use

  • Professionally made and finished in Australia

The art of the reveal.

Sharkstooth scrim remains a stage essential for lighting transitions and visual effects. When lit from the front, it’s opaque — when lit from behind, it becomes transparent — creating moments of surprise and depth that bring productions to life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a scrim, and how does it work?

A scrim is a woven fabric that appears opaque when front-lit and transparent when backlit. It’s commonly used in stage productions to create reveals, depth, or projection surfaces. Our Sharkstooth scrim is made from flame-retardant material for professional, long-lasting use.

What’s the difference between scrims, sheers, and voiles?

  • Scrims (like Sharkstooth) are open-weave fabrics used for lighting effects and visual illusions.

  • Sheers and voiles are lighter, more decorative materials often used as creative dividers or soft scenic layers in events, galleries, or installations.

Can you make scrims or sheers to a custom size?

Yes. Every order is made to measure — we can finish scrims, sheers, and voiles with hems, seams, and edge finishing to fit your rigging or tracking system perfectly.

Are your fabrics flame-retardant?

Absolutely. All of our scrims and voiles are treated to meet Australian Standards AS1530.2 and AS1530.3. Compliance documentation can be supplied upon request.

Can these fabrics be used for projection or backlighting?

Yes. Scrims and some voiles are perfect for projection, backlighting, and layered effects. The result will depend on your lighting setup — our team can advise on the best fabric for your intended effect.

How should I clean or maintain my scrim or sheer fabric?

We recommend gentle dust removal and avoiding harsh cleaning methods that could stretch or distort the weave. Our Maintenance & Care Guide (coming soon) will include detailed instructions for long-term care.

Do you install scrims or just supply them?

Reveal can manufacture and supply your scrims, voiles, or sheers ready for installation. If required, our team can also coordinate with your venue or installer to ensure the perfect fit.
