Enviro Mesh was created by Cornerstone Scientific to be a superior material for envirosuits. While it appears to be a fabric, the mesh is actually made from very fine threads of tightly woven agrinium treated to resist liquid or gas penetration. This allows the mesh to be used as a fabric or be melted down and used as a metal in armors. The mesh itself is not comfortable, nor is it overly uncomfortable or scratchy. Because it is lightweight and form fitting, this mesh offers greater mobility and dexterity when used as a body glove or in an environmental protection suit.
Enviro Mesh is resistant to liquid and gasses of any strength including acids, bases, toxins and nearly all aerosolized liquids or gasses. This is useful when exploring territory with unknown environmental conditions that could be toxic or otherwise dangerous. Additionally, agrinium is naturally lightweight and resistant to radiation making Enviro Mesh a suitable material to protect against most hostile environments. This specially created mesh offers a measure of heat and fire resistance as well, though is by no means fireproof. Enviro Mesh can withstand bursts of flame or hot environments but not exposure to flame or extreme heat over an extended period of time which would cause the material to begin to melt and become useless.
Though able to protect against hostile environments, Enviro Mesh falls short when it comes to defending against traditional weaponry. Though the agrinium weave offers a bit of protection against kinetic impact (rips from environmental contact mostly, slugs will certainly tear through the material), lightsabers will cut through the mesh like hot butter and blasters will have little trouble burning through the material. Because Enviro Mesh is tightly woven to avoid penetration of harmful chemicals, any clothing made from this material has the potential to overheat the wearer. Thus, temperature control is a must for nearly any Enviro Mesh clothing.
