Here it is first of all necessary to distinguish between opaque and light-tight. So-called dim-out fabrics are opaque, i.e. objects or persons behind them are not visible. Dim-out fabrics are very popular and are frequently used ...

... but when light comes into play that is to be faded out, the higher-quality, usually multiple-layered, light-tight blackout fabrics are in demand. The effective fading out of light requires a special coating of the fabric, which makes the handle of the textile stiffer, which in turn can limit the application possibilities. We will be happy to advise you on this as well!

Darkening fabrics from IBENA DPI-TEX are e.g:

• Dimout black FR (article 9006)
• PES Coated Blackout New (Artikel 9008)
