Curtain Linings

Curtain linings play a key part in achieving not only the look you want to have in the room but also the level of comfort you require. We often don’t think about how much drapery and linings have to do with making our homes more comfortable, but that additional layer that lining provides not only gives a professional finish to a curtain but also a substantial improvement in the window’s insulation factor for both temperature and noise.

Curtain lining should never be an afterthought, or forgotten about completely when selecting your curtain fabrics. Spending hundreds or even thousands of rand per meter on high quality curtain fabric is not enough if those curtains are not lined. Linings are actually equally as important as the main curtain fabric for a host of reasons;

1. Linings provide fullness to curtains, the weight of a lined curtain makes it hang better;
2. they protect the curtain fabric dust, dirt and grime entering from the outside,
3.  they protect the curtain fabric from the harsh African sun,
4. they act as an insulator trapping heat between the curtain lining and the curtain fabric,
5.  they help to reduce noise pollution;
6. they help to protect the curtain fabric against moisture entering from the outside and from condensation forming on the window and,
7. they reduce or eliminate unwanted light from entering a room.
