Insulating curtain - Save up to 25% energy

Insulating curtains: save energy and increase your living comfort

Many people notice cold air coming from their windows, especially in winter. What's less well-known is that a large portion of heat literally escapes through the glass. With insulating curtains, you can significantly reduce this heat loss and simultaneously improve the ambiance of your home.

What are insulating curtains?

Insulating curtains help maintain a warm indoor temperature. They are made of thicker fabrics or have a special lining that keeps heat in during the winter and out during the summer. This creates an extra layer of insulation between the room and the window.

The best fabrics for insulating curtains

Not every fabric has the same insulating effect. Thicker, tightly woven fabrics keep out the cold better. The most commonly used fabrics for insulating curtains are:

  • Velvet curtain fabric: a heavy, full fabric that retains heat well and also dampens sound.

  • Blackout fabrics with coating: the special backing of these fabrics helps keep heat inside.

A practical combination is an in-between curtain with a thick curtain behind it. During the day, you let the light through, and in the evening, you pull the thicker fabric closed to retain the warmth.

The benefits of insulating curtains

  • Lower energy costs: less heat loss means less heating.

  • More comfort: no cold draught along the window.

  • Sustainable living: by using less energy, you reduce your CO₂ emissions.

  • Extra sound insulation: thick fabrics also block out outside noise better.

Insulation without compromising on style

Insulating curtains are available in a wide variety of fabrics and colors. Whether you prefer a modern, classic, or rustic style, there's always a fabric to match the ambiance of your interior. This way, you can combine a warm, cozy home with a beautiful appearance.
