First of all - why are blackout curtains so popular?
Bright and disruptive light sources can significantly impair our sleep. To create a pleasant sleeping or living environment, blackout curtains have always been an indispensable and stylish everyday aid. They easily prevent light from entering the room, thus providing optimal privacy for a relaxing retreat. These curtains are particularly effective in bedrooms, children's rooms, offices, or even for perfectly darkening your home theater.
Although blackout curtains already offer effective light protection, traditional curtain tracks often have a small gap between the track and the curtain, through which light can still enter the room. This gap can create distracting rays of light and thus reduce the desired blackout effect.
Our solution - optimized light-blocking curtains with integrated gliders
To eliminate the gap between the track and the curtain and achieve optimal light blocking, we have developed blackout curtains with integrated gliders. These gliders are sewn directly into the blackout curtain, ensuring better contact between the curtain and the track. This results in virtually gapless blackout.
How do the integrated gliders work?
The gliders are made of a high-quality, durable material and are sewn along the top edge of the curtain. This ensures a tight and seamless fit on the track, preventing light from entering and thus enabling optimal room darkening.
Advantages of light-blocking curtains with integrated gliders
- Complete blackout:
By eliminating the gap between the track and the curtain, optimal blackout is achieved. - Protection from sun rays:
As perfect sun protection , they block sunlight and protect against UV rays, thus maintaining a comfortable room temperature and also preventing furniture or carpets from fading. - Energy-saving:
They help reduce energy consumption by blocking heat in the summer and keeping the heat in the room during the winter. - Noise reduction:
The dense nature of these curtains helps even more effectively to reduce outside noise and thus create a quiet environment. - Stylish design:
