Acoustic Blackout Fleece Bonded Curtain Lining (3 Pass)
Direct Fabrics exclusive 3-pass coated blackout lining with a fleece bonded layer. Designed to improve blackout, thermal comfort, and acoustic performance when used as a curtain lining.
Certified acoustic lining. In controlled testing it can achieve up to 9dB reduction on its own.
3-pass coating seals the fabric to significantly reduce light transmission.
Adds body to curtains for improved drape and a more premium, hotel-style finish.
Sound and thermal results depend on fitting, overlap, and sealing drafts. This lining is a proven upgrade, not a replacement for poor glazing or structural sound issues.
Why choose our thermal acoustic lining
This is Direct Fabrics exclusive blackout 3-pass coated fleece bonded lining and is the certified lining used in our own acoustic curtain ranges.
It is designed to block light, add thermal comfort, and support acoustic performance. The fleece layer adds an additional barrier and improves absorption, while the blackout coating seals the fabric to help prevent light transmission.
If you want a heavy weight blackout lining that also adds fullness and a luxury drape, this is the best option in the range.
What to expect
- Luxury weight lining that adds noticeable body to curtains
- Works best with wider curtains and good side overlap
- Draft sealing improves both thermal and acoustic results
9dB is a meaningful change. As a general guide, a 10dB reduction is often described as sounding roughly half as loud, but real-world results vary by room, window sealing, and fitting.

More information on thermal lining
Thermal curtains help regulate room temperature by reducing heat loss in winter and limiting excess heat entering through the window in summer. A thick lining helps create a trapped air pocket, which is where much of the insulation benefit comes from.
Close curtains on sun-facing windows during the hottest part of the day. Lighter linings can help reflect sunlight and reduce solar gain.
Close curtains at night. For best results, use floor length curtains with good side overlap and reduce drafts around the window.
If you want maximum thermal performance, fitting wins: wider coverage and better draft sealing usually deliver the biggest improvement.

How to Measure For Curtains, Blinds and Tracks.
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
