Quite recently in the market of curtains there was an excellent alternative to usual horizontal jalousie - stylish curtains day-night. These are close relatives of tissue rollet. There are day and night curtains of two kinds of strips, made of transparent and dense materials, alternating with each other. Such a curtain is adjusted by means of a special mechanism. By driving the strips of a double roller blind day and night, you can choose the necessary light in the room. When two transparent strips are combined in the room, it will be light, and when a transparent strip is applied to a thick fabric in the room, a darkening effect will appear.
Thanks to this design, day-night curtains are also called "zebra". Unlike the usual curtains, which can be either just open or closed, using day-night curtains you can darken the room in different degrees.
For the manufacture of day-night curtains, various types of fabrics are used: smooth monochrome, textured and even with a pattern. Material in day and night curtains is impregnated with special anti-static and dust-repellent agents, which greatly facilitates the care of them.
