Expectation setting: This is a blackout lining designed for strong light control. Final “blackout” results depend on installation details such as track position, curtain overlap and light gaps at edges.
Overview: contract-ready blackout lining for light control and thermal benefit
Light Out is a 3-pass flame retardant blackout lining supplied by the metre in a 142cm width. It is intended for use as a functional lining behind face fabrics, delivering blackout performance with a thermal benefit where specification and compliance are required.
The fabric is listed as BS5867 Part 2B flame retardant, supporting use in contract environments where an FR lining is specified. Weight and performance figures are provided in the specification section, and supporting documents should be referenced in the spec tab.
Best suited for
- Bedrooms and guest rooms where blackout performance is required
- Hospitality and commercial fit-outs needing BS5867 Part 2B FR lining
- Projects seeking added curtain body and a smooth lining finish
- Thermal-support linings where performance figures are required for specification
Where this fits in our range
This product sits as our 142cm-wide flame retardant 3-pass blackout lining option. Choose it when you need a contract-ready blackout lining sold by the metre. If your project prioritises fewer joins on wide drops, consider wider-width blackout linings in the range (where available) and compare specifications in the spec tab.
Specifier note
For compliance-led work, confirm the latest certification and care guidance in the specifications tab. Certificates and supporting documents should be filed against the project pack.
Who uses our flame retardant blackout lining
Specified for contract and domestic curtain making where a blackout lining is required, including hospitality guest rooms and serviced accommodation, as well as commercial spaces that require a flame retardant lining certified to BS5867 Part 2B.
Also selected for refurbishment work where existing curtains need improved light control and added body without changing the face fabric.
Application guidance
- Pair with suitable face fabrics and allow for overlap/returns to minimise edge light
- Confirm lining and face fabric compatibility for cleaning and maintenance schedules
- Use the spec tab to reference care guidance and certification for project documentation
