Experience the ultimate sleep with blackout curtains. Designed to block out unwanted light and distractions, they create a serene and restful environment in any room.
What Are Blackout Curtains?
Blackout curtains are designed to block out sunlight and create a darkened environment, perfect for those who need complete darkness to sleep or relax. Unlike dim-out curtains, which may allow some light to pass through, high-quality blackout curtains, like those in the Attic® blackout series, offer 100% sunlight blockage (fabric only). This is achieved through a combination of tightly woven fabrics and multiple layers of specialised light-blocking coatings, often including a silicon layer. These coatings work by absorbing and reflecting light, preventing it from entering the room and ensuring a peaceful space for sleep, relaxation, or even a home theatre experience.

At HM Gallery, we believe your window coverings should be as unique as your style. That's why we offer a wide range of customisable blackout curtains, allowing you to choose from a variety of fabrics, colours, and patterns to perfectly match your décor. Visit our showroom in Singapore to explore our made-to-measure solutions, ensuring a precise fit for optimal light blockage and a polished look, with options for different heading styles and linings to meet your specific needs.

Polyester
Polyester blackout curtains are popular for their durability, affordability, and wide range of colours and patterns. They are easy to care for and offer excellent light-blocking properties, making them a practical and stylish solution for any room. Polyester is also the only fabric that allows for the memory curtain feature, which retains the shape and pleats of your curtains even after washing. While the memory feature is generally long-lasting, it's important to note that the shaping may gradually diminish after 3-4 washes.

Velvet blackout curtains are particularly well-suited for bedrooms and living rooms where a sense of luxury is desired.

Cleaning & Maintenance
Proper care ensures your blackout curtains continue to look and perform their best for years to come. Here's a simple guide to cleaning and maintaining them:
- Regular Dusting: Dust your blackout curtains weekly using a soft cloth, feather duster, or vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment. This helps prevent dust buildup and keeps the fabric looking fresh.
- Occasional Washing: Most blackout curtains can be machine-washed on a gentle cycle with cold water. However, always refer to the care label attached to your specific curtains for detailed instructions.
- Drying: Air dry your blackout curtains whenever possible to prevent shrinkage or damage. If using a dryer, choose a low-heat setting.
- Ironing (if needed): Iron your blackout curtains on a low setting if wrinkles appear. Place a clean cloth between the iron and the curtain fabric to protect it.
- Professional Cleaning: For delicate fabrics or stubborn stains, consider professional curtain cleaning services.
