Re-treat if the fabric becomes wet
Expectation setting: This is an interlining, not a face fabric. It is used between the face fabric and lining to add weight and structure. It is non-durable flame retardant—if the interlining is wetted in any way, it must be re-treated to maintain flame retardancy. Allow for shrinkage when attaching to other fabric qualities, and take care when ironing (see notes in specifications).
Overview: heavy weight interlining for structured drape
This 260gsm flame retardant interlining is specified to add a more luxurious handle and improved structure to made-to-measure curtains, blinds and soft furnishings. The heavier weight helps build a fuller appearance where additional body is required.
The interlining is certified to BS5867 Part 2B. As supplied in the source specification, the flame retardant finish is non-durable, meaning the fabric must be re-treated if it becomes wet.
Supplied in a natural colour and listed as pre-shrunk. For specification-critical work, confirm the full details in the specification tab, where care guidance and any supporting documentation can be referenced.
Best suited for
- Made-to-measure curtains where extra weight and a more structured drape is required.
- Blinds and soft furnishings where an interlining is used to build body and improve hang.
- Contract projects specifying BS5867 Part 2B flame retardant performance for curtain-related fabrics.
Where this fits in our range
Choose this product when you need a heavy weight (260gsm) cotton interlining in a natural colour to add structure behind a face fabric. If your priority is blackout, dimout or thermal performance, select a lining designed for shading/insulation instead of an interlining.
Ordering notes
- Sold per linear metre (fabric width applies across the roll).
- Average roll size is circa 50m (see specifications).
- Allow for shrinkage when attaching to other fabric qualities.
Who uses this flame retardant interlining
Commonly used by workrooms, contractors and specifiers manufacturing made-to-measure curtains, blinds and related soft furnishings for commercial interiors. Suitable where BS5867 Part 2B compliance is required for curtain-related textile components (confirm project requirements in your spec).
Typical applications include hospitality and education environments where curtains and blinds are made to measure and an interlining is specified to improve drape and finish. For higher-risk or enhanced performance requirements, confirm the correct fabric specification for the project before placing order.
Care and compliance documentation
Washing/cleaning guidance and any supporting certification information should be referenced via the specification tab. As this is a non-durable FR product, ensure maintenance procedures account for re-treatment if the interlining becomes wet.

How to Measure For Curtains, Blinds and Tracks.
Pen and Paper
For recording your
measurements.
Helper
Someone to assist if your
windows are large .
Metal Tape Measure
As this will allow you to get a
rigid full length measurement.
Make sure your curtain tracks and poles are fitted in the position you want.
Choose the type of curtains that you would like and how you want to hang your curtains. See our heading styles guide
We recommend fitting your hardware first before measuring, this avoids any issues with not getting the perfect fit.
Measure your window using our main guide. Quick summary below. Remember wave, pinch, and designer headings require slightly different measurement
Measure in 3 places and take the shortest drop – Floors and ceilings can run out.
Double / Triple check your measurements
Choosing your Curtain Track Width
The width of the curtain track should extend past your window this allows for the curtains to stack back away from your window and allow light in.
Measure your recess and then add on 15cm on either side. For acoustics , we recommend further to fully cover the window and the surrounding area. In our test we added an additional 30cm to the width and also made the curtain floor length.
Wave curtains, for every 100cm of track the curtains will stack circa *18cm
Eyelet curtains, they will stack back circa 10cm per *70cm of track width
Pencil Pleat will stack approx 25% of the track width. eg. 210cm track will stack 52.5%
* all dependent on thickness of fabric

How to Measure for Blinds going Inside the Recess
- Measure the exact width of the recess in three places; at the top of the recess, in the centre of the recess and near the bottom - then take the smallest size.
- Measure the exact drop of the recess in three places on the left hand side of the recess, in the centre of the recess and on the right hand side of the recess - then take the smallest size.
- We will take one cm off the finished width size you have given us, to allow for the blind to pull up and down easily.
- Double check your measurements
- Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the Fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm
How to Measure Outside of the Recess
- Measure the recess in 3 places on the width and also 3 places on the drop. Take the widest measurement.
- Measure the width of the actual recess plus an additional amount – Usually from 7cm-15cm whatever you think looks appropriate. This is for overlap.
- Measure the exact drop of the recess. The blind would be fitted above the recess, so check the space above and add an amount on to the drop – usually from 7-15cm
- These sizes you have taken will be the size of the finished blind.
- Double check your measurements
- Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm
Cubicle Tracks you have to measure with right angles from wall to wall where you want the track to go
Draw your room on a piece of paper with a sky view
Now measure from the wall to wall for straight tracks,
L Shape Tracks Measure to a point on the floor and mark with a piece of tape. Then for the other sides measure from the other wall to that point.
Always check for obstructions and fitting issues you may need to work around
