FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is “PVC‑free blackout” fabric?
PVC-free blackout fabrics use a soft foamed or textile backing, offering 100% UV protection and privacy without PVC.
How do Elite Pro shades reflect heat and reduce glare?
Some Elite Pro fabrics bond a micro-thin aluminum layer to the weave, reflecting up to 74% of solar energy, reducing glare, and maintaining outward view with a two-tone appearance.
Do blackout fabrics always look opaque inside?
Yes—all blackout fabrics ensure full light blockage and privacy when shades are down.
What is the widest width available for blackout fabrics?
Vinyl Blackout is offered in XL widths (up to 120") to accommodate large windows without seams.
Are blackout fabrics offered in multiple colours or textures?
Absolutely. For example, some popular Elite Pro shades offer colours like Linen, Mushroom, White, Black, Sand, and Grey; and others come in Canvas, Chalk, Khaki, Charcoal, and more.
