Torsion is created with an extremely refined recycled polyester yarn made using multifilaments derived from post-consumer bottles. This is twisted with high torsion and then interwoven with a spun yarn to give the curtain its appealing streaky, almost cotton-like look and feel.
The finishing process, which includes a very subtle calender treatment, is specially adapted to preserve Torsion’s lightly structured, natural character.
Torsion’s colour palette incorporates modified primaries, which evoke the vibrancy of human-made sourced material: Lemon Zest, Marine Algae and Dark Ink.

LightFastness {{site.selectedConfiguration.lightFastness}}
ISO 105-B02
Lightfastness relates to the ability of a textile to retain its colour under light. When testing for lightfastness, samples are exposed to artificial daylight for a specified period.
The evaluation scale ranges from 1 (worst) to 8 (best). An increase of one point corresponds to a doubling of the lightfastness, i.e. the same fading takes twice as long.

Typologies
Unfolding the diversity and potential of our Residential collection.
Classified as four styles with matching interior scenarios and colour concepts, Typologies illustrates how shifting perspectives can reinvent the familiar.
The Purist. The Eclectic. The Optimist. The Metropolitan.
Regular cleaning is important in order to keep the curtain textile looking its best and to prolong its life. Dust and dirt wear down the textile and also reduce its fire-retardant properties.

Regular care
If possible, we recommend washing curtains once a year. If used heavily, a more frequent cleaning may be appropriate. All curtain fabrics by Kvadrat and Sahco are supplied with a care label. We recommend the use of detergent without optical bleach for all items in which, according to care instructions, washing is possible. Please take into account a possible shrinkage between 1–4 %. It is always possible to wash at a lower temperature that the one specified for light soiling. Please contact a professional dry cleaner if dry cleaning is the only option for maintenance. A professional dry cleaner may also assist in working out maintenance schedules which ensure that the fabrics are maintained properly so that a good indoor climate and maximum duration of the curtains are achieved.
