Blockout has the following benefits, but adds to the overall cost of your curtains:

  1. We work with a 100% blockout that is fully washable – available in white and cream.
  2. It blocks the sun in summer, keeps the room cool and adds a layer of insulation from the cold in winter.
  3. You may find it mutes sound.
  4. A huge benefit for adults that are light sleepers and children’s rooms.
