Description
Accolade Dim out Blackout is a premium 100% polyester fabric with inherent flame retardant properties, making it the ideal choice for safety conscious blackout applications. Designed for educational, hospitality, and theatrical use, this fabric effectively blocks out sunlight, creating darkened environments perfect for performance spaces, classrooms, and projection rooms.
Conforming to BS5867 Part 2:B safety standards, Accolade Dim-out Blackout is inherently flame retardant, meaning the flame resistance is woven into the fibres and will not wash out. It can be laundered at 40°C, cold rinsed, and short spun without compromising its performance. The fabric measures 150cm in width and features a distinctive construction with the inner side in black for maximum light control, while the outer face shows the selected decorative color.
