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 Download our Drapes Guide BUILT FOR EVERY SPACE ## WHERE SCRIMS AND Voile SHINE   ### Transforming light, space, and perception across industries. From theatre stages to contemporary art spaces, **Reveal’s scrims and voiles** are used to shape atmosphere and control light. Whether you’re creating subtle diffusion, a ghost-like reveal, or an elegant divider, these fabrics deliver texture and dimension to every environment. ![Theatres & Performing Arts](https://revealproductions.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/theatre%20and%20arts%20venues.jpg?width=1460&height=2191&name=theatre%20and%20arts%20venues.jpg) ##### Theatres & Performing Arts The art of the reveal. Sharkstooth scrim remains a stage essential for lighting transitions and visual effects.

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.
