Night curtains – lightproof, opaque and elegant

Blackout curtains, unlike day curtains, are made from tightly woven yarns to optimally darken rooms. This ensures a restful atmosphere at night. Non-blackout curtains protect against prying eyes but only minimally darken the room. With blackout curtains, you can effectively improve your sleep quality.

At Vorhangschweiz, we offer a wide selection of blackout curtains, with or without a blackout function, made from various materials. We offer both ready-made curtains and custom-made curtains, which we tailor to your individual window size.

Blackout curtains – For a restful sleep

MelatoninSleep hormone is released in greater quantities in the evening to initiate sleep. However, strong light inhibits the production of this sleep hormone and can negatively affect sleep quality. Therefore, it is particularly important in large cities to thoroughly darken the bedroom at night so that sleep is not disturbed by streetlights or light from neighboring buildings.

Blackout curtains were developed for such purposes. They filter the incoming light and create a particularly relaxing atmosphere in the bedroom. Night curtains are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing, visually enhancing the room.

When it comes to night curtains, you have several options to choose from. You can adjust the transparency yourself; for example, there are night curtains that look like day curtains but still offer ideal privacy. There are also special blackout curtains made of a heavy material that completely darken the room.

These are the functions that night curtains perform:

• They provide more privacy
• They efficiently reduce the amount of light entering the room.
• Improve sleep quality
• Can reduce noise levels
• They have an energy-saving function and keep the temperature low in summer.
