At Studio Curtains, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, custom-made curtains designed for both function and style. With the right care, your curtains will maintain their appearance, performance, and longevity for many years.
General Tips for All Curtains
Regular Dusting: Use a soft brush, handheld vacuum, or lint roller to remove dust weekly.
Avoid Direct Sunlight (Where Possible): Prolonged exposure can fade fabrics. Consider lining or using blackout layers for sun-exposed windows.
Keep Away from Damp: Ensure the area around your curtains is well ventilated to prevent mould or mildew.
Fabric Types & Cleaning Instructions
🖤 Blackout Curtains
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.
Do not iron directly — use a pressing cloth if needed.
🔇 Acoustic Curtains
Vacuum gently using a brush attachment to maintain acoustic properties.
Do not soak or steam — moisture can affect soundproofing layers.
Professional cleaning recommended every 12–18 months.
❄️ Thermal Curtains
Shake out regularly to remove dust.
Dry clean only unless the label states otherwise.
Iron on a low setting with a protective cloth.
🎨 Decorative Fabrics
Follow the care label instructions.
For delicate fabrics (velvet, silk), use professional dry cleaning.
Avoid excessive handling to reduce creasing and wear.
Installation Area Care
Keep curtain tracks and poles clean and free of debris.
Gently close and open curtains to avoid pulling or stretching.
Ensure curtain tiebacks or holdbacks are installed at the correct height to prevent fabric damage.
Professional Curtain Cleaning
We recommend professional curtain cleaning at least once every 12–24 months, depending on the room conditions (e.g. kitchens, studios, or high-traffic spaces may require more frequent attention).
