Night Curtains

Night curtains are ideal for rooms that require a high amount of privacy because of the slightly thicker materials that do not allow see-through, unlike those of day curtains.  Night curtains are also good for blocking out sunlight when watching TV programs in the day. 

With technological advancements, night curtains are not just aesthetics for the interior but also functional.  There are three types of material to choose from depending on your needs: Normal, Dim-out and Blackout.

Normal – One of the most commonly available in the market today, this type of material serves to provide privacy and block out 10%-50% of the light in the bedroom;

Dim-out – Largely used in modern interior furnishings, this type of curtain does not only provide privacy, but is also capable of blocking out 60%-90% of the sunlight depending on the colour chosen.  Dim-out curtains come in three layers: the front and back layers are usually of the same shade, in between there is a black layer that acts to block out the sunlight.  Durable compared to the normal type, dim-out curtains are light and easy to maintain; and

Blackout – Blackout curtains provide 100% blockage of the light.  In addition, its thermal backing absorbs heat into the curtain, thereby keeping the room cool and comfortable.  Blackout curtains are particularly popular among young couples due to the amount of privacy that comes with the use.  However, blackout curtain material requires dry cleaning.  It is also heavy in weight and the thermal backing tends to thin out after multiple washes.
