Generally speaking, in addition to the curtain style, most people are most concerned about the shading rate.

The reception lady in the shop often hears the guest ask: Is there a 100% shade curtain?

The curtain cloth with 100% shading rate does not exist, and the shading rate of general curtain is between 50% and 95%.

In order to achieve complete shading, we have to add a layer of shading fabric to the original curtain cloth, which is what we often call lining.

Do curtains have to be 100% shaded?

The answer is not necessarily. It depends on the space and the people who use it.

1. Living room: 40%-60% shading

Living room emphasizes enough natural light, so curtain shading rate does not need to be too high, to meet the heat insulation, dust-proof function can be, generally around 40% - 60% is enough. At the same time, the living room is also a reflection of the "beauty" of a home, and the choice of curtains pays more attention to the ornamental. With a soft and beautiful window screen (the shading rate of the window screen is generally 30%), the living room's appearance immediately rises.

2. Bedroom: 55%-90% shading rate

In order to satisfy the sleeping function, the choice of curtains pays more attention to practicality.

Natural light is of great benefit to human health. Generally, it is not recommended that all shading curtains be used.

3. Children's room: 50%-70% shading rate

Note: Children's room and elderly room, the shading rate of curtains is best not too high.

Children are insecure about the environment. They sleep in a completely dark environment and wake up and cry more at night.

At the same time, it is not conducive to the formation of good working and sleeping time for children.

Furthermore, the lack of natural light in the children's room is not conducive to their health, such as vision, bone development, etc.

The shading rate of children's room curtain can be 50%-70%, and that of older children or children with severe sunset can be slightly higher. Pull up the curtain day and night alternate feeling or to be able to reflect.

IV. Elderly Housing: About 70%

Older people are used to going to bed early and getting up early, and their eyesight is gradually weakening. It is better to have enough natural light in the room. The shading rate of curtains is about 70%, which is more conducive to the health of older people. Generally speaking, double curtains are more suitable for the elderly. A light gauze curtain can be pulled up during the day, and the indoor brightness can be adjusted appropriately, so that the eyes of the elderly are not stimulated by strong light. The other layer is made of cotton curtain, which has good air permeability and can ensure a certain degree of warmth. Especially at night, it can avoid the old people from getting cold.

5. General bedroom:

Most of the people's bedroom curtain shade in more than 70% has been able to avoid the interference of sunlight, a natural awakening from sleep.
