Features
Key features
The 98 in length is ideal if you want to hang the curtain above the window for a casual look.
The fabric blocks out all light and glare on TV/screens. It gives complete privacy as shapes or light cannot be perceived from outside and the transition between day/night cannot be distinguished
Perfect for people who are sensitive to light during sleep, anytime of the day.
Curtains reduce heat from the sun as well as heat loss from draughty windows. For best effect, mount from ceiling to floor with the curtains overlapping the window, as close as possible, to prevent gaps.
The heading tape makes it easy for you to create pleats using RIKTIG curtain hooks.
Effective at keeping out both drafts in the winter and heat in the summer.
Curtains with heading tape allow you to hang the curtain directly on the curtain rod using the rod pocket or tabs. You can also hinge the curtain onto a track rail using gliders and hooks.
Using gliders and hooks usually creates a more formal and dressed-up feel, where hardware is not visible.
Black-out curtains blocks light from shining through and completely darkens your room.

Good to know
Curtains, 1 pair included
The curtains are sold in pairs. The sizes stated refer to each single curtain. For the total width, double the width of a single curtain.
Since the fabric will shrink when washing it is a good idea to wash the curtains prior to cutting/hemming.
Use SY iron-on hemming strip to shorten the curtains without sewing.
16 gliders and hooks are usually recommended for each curtain with a width of 57⅛". You can increase or decrease the number depending on whether you want narrower or fuller folds in the pleats.
What is polyester?
When we create products from recycled polyester, PET bottles, and other sources, they get a new life in products like textiles, storage boxes, kitchen fronts, and even lamps. When using them, you get to enjoy exactly the same quality and function as with virgin polyester products. And naturally, they’re just as clean and safe in every way. And perhaps the very best part – you contribute to using less new raw materials too.
Polyester is a durable, quick-drying and insulating material that is optimal to use for textiles and as filling in pillows, quilts and furniture. The material is made from crude oil – a limited resource. Since IKEA doesn’t want to contribute to more virgin oil being used, we are now gradually switching to recycled and traceable polyester from sources like PET bottles. What’s nice is that polyester can be recycled over and over, without changing or losing its great qualities.
