Texaa double-sided Curtains are made from two layers of sound-absorbing feltwadding in an Aeria fabric cover.
FULLNESSFullness corresponds to pleating. The greater the fullness, the more pleating created. A fullness of 1 corresponds to a curtain with no pleating.For example, a curtain which is 3 m wide fitted to a hanging rail which is 1.5 m long, will have a fullness of 2. The curtain’s fullness determines the level of sound absorption provided.
Curtain width 1,500 mm – fullness of 1 Curtain width 3,000 mm – fullness of 2
