More Information
Vessel TypeIn the world of marine curtains, we talk about fullness. This refers to the amount of fabric used in a curtain. The more fabric used, the more fullness the curtains have. More fabric equals a richer look, more sound absorption, and more protection from light. While we offer a full range of fullness, for a luxury finish for your cabins and suites, we’d recommend 200% fullness or greater.

Marine Curtains for Offshore Crane Curtains
Marine Curtains can be used on cranes when they are not in use. A curtain helps to keep a cabin cool when the operator clocks off for the day and indicates to others that the crane is not in use at that time.
All fabrics and linings are IMO FR certified.

Pencil pleat curtains are so called because they look like a line of pencils when hung. The folds of the fabric are tightly gathered to create the look and provide a neat and pleasingly uniform look to your curtains.
Pinch pleat curtains use a narrow, short pleat and are ideal where windows are smaller and need a more compact curtain.
Wave curtains have no gathering or pleating across the top. Instead, a twisting curve creates fluid folds to fall directly below the rail.
