Broken Twill Sheer is a curtain textile designed by Jonathan Olivares. It is a contemporary interpretation of a classic twill weave, which delicately captures a sense of light and movement. It offers an upscaled iteration of the design for his upholstery Broken Twill Weave, with an almost sun-bleached colour scale. Woven from Trevira CS yarns, a quarter of which are recycled, Broken Twill Sheer is exceptionally soft and folds to eye-catching effect. When the curtain drapes in the light, the pattern dissolves into the folds while emerging on the curved edges, creating three-dimensional volume. Consequently, the curtain reveals surprising new traits throughout the day: it is always in flux. Broken Twill Sheer is suitable for public and private spaces.

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.

Flame retardant performance depends on the type of foam used. There are differing requirements concerning the flame-retardancy of textiles dependent on the area of application, country or even region. Our textiles pass the majority of international standards and are also tested for a selection of regional requirements.

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.
