FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

An interlining is a layer of fabric that is placed between the lining and the face fabric of a curtain. It provides additional thickness, insulation, and fullness to curtains, improving their appearance and performance. Interlining also helps to protect the face fabric from sunlight and extend the life of the curtains. At Direct Fabrics, we offer a range of interlining options for our customers to choose from to enhance the look and functionality of their curtains.

We offer a variety of interlining options to suit different needs and preferences. These include:

  • Cotton Interlining - a natural material that provides good insulation and drape for curtains.
  • Bump Interlining - a thicker interlining that adds volume and fullness to curtains, giving them a luxurious look and feel.
  • Blackout Interlining - a special interlining that blocks out sunlight, providing extra insulation and privacy for curtains.
  • Thermal Interlining - an energy-saving interlining that traps heat inside during winter, keeping the room warm and reducing energy bills.
Our expert team can advise on which type of interlining would be best suited for your curtains and requirements.

If you want your curtains to have a fuller, more luxurious look, or if you need them to provide more insulation or light-blocking, then interlining may be the solution. In general, interlining is recommended for heavier fabrics and for curtains that will be used in rooms that require more privacy or insulation.
