Choosing window dressings that are right for you can be a challenge. You want them to be aesthetically pleasing, but you also want them to serve a purpose. Kreative Kama’āina, a Honolulu-based fabric window treatment company, has a few reasons why blackout draperies could be the practical choice for you.

Learn more about the benefits of blackout draperies:

• Room Darkening: Blackout drapery fabrics are manufactured to block out 100% of the light source. Manufactured and installed correctly, blackout draperies will  provide complete darkness in a room – perfect for late morning and daytime sleepers, theater rooms and more.
• Reduce Noise: Blackout drapery fabrics are manufactured with either a two-pass or three-pass construction which produces a heavy and dense fabric providing excellent noise control features. Blackout fabrics absorb the noise on the inside of a room thereby minimizing sound waves from bouncing off the walls.  The drapery panels also serve as an excellent layer of sound control for outside disturbances such as “street” noise.  
• Save Energy: Regardless of the season (Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall), blackout curtains can help you save money on energy throughout the year. During cold weather days, blackout draperies help prevent the heat from escaping through the windows. On those days of hot weather conditions, blackout draperies are the perfect solution for preventing the heat and sunlight from entering the room. 
• Privacy: Many window treatments provide some level of privacy but blackout draperies provide complete privacy to a room.
