Caring for your curtains

Caring for your curtains


       Recommended cleaning

  • Recommended cleaning instructions for each fabric. 

  • Please note wash the curtains only when they are advised washable. Don’t wash if the lining, trims and embellishments aren't washable or colourfast.

  • Remove hooks, rings and hardware before washing.

  • Professional dry clean, hand wash or machine wash as instructed.

  • Don’t overload the washing machine. Don’t wash if the curtains are too large for your washing machine.

  • Before the curtains are completely dry, remove them from washing line or dryer (on a low setting).

  • Iron the curtains on the reverse side.


       Daily care

  • A gentle shaking when the curtains are drawn closed at night will prevent dust and dirt from lodging in the fibers.

  • Also you can use a handheld vacuum and soft brush to clean regularly. Always make sure that trims, buttons, and other embellishments are secure before vacuuming.


       Shrinkage Consideration

  • For washable fabrics shrinkage of up to 5% may occur if washing instructions are followed.

  • To reduce this possibility, washable fabrics should always be hand-washed, drip dried and ironed in a lengthways direction before fully dry.

  • Shrinkage in any fabric can be minimised if your curtains are dry cleaned.


       Sunlight Considerations

  • Some windows are exposed to more sunlight than others. Light-coloured curtains would be the most suitable here as light-coloured fabrics generally reflect sunlight and resist fading.

  • Dark colours absorb light and fade. To protect fabrics from the sun, use lined curtains or blinds.
