Texaa’s Maille Ronde Élargie (MRE) Aeria stitch, knitted in our workshop, has been especially designed to let light through, while creating a feeling of privacy.
Texaa acoustic Curtains are made of two lengths of sound-absorbing felt wadding with an Aeria cover.
They are highly flame-resistant and clad on both sides with run-resistant, antistatic and dirt-repellent Aeria fabric, in combination with two thicknesses of 3-mm thick sound-absorbing black felt wadding and a core of six sound-damping layers.
They can be zipped together with zippers that are sewn down their sides, making it possible to accommodate varying space dimensions.
The curtains are hung from a rail fitted with rollers for easy drawing. For more static applications, the curtains may be fitted with eyelets (diameter 40 mm).
Texaa’s drapes make it possible to mark the boundaries of spaces without closing them off completely. The MRE open stitch, knitted in Texaa’s workshop from fully recycled fibres was especially designed to let light through, while concealing the environment behind it. In open spaces these drapes create a sense of boundary between areas with a very light installation and develop a feeling of privacy.
Texaa drapes are available in three shades: MRE980 (Granit), MRE640 (Nacre) and MRE680 (Taupe). Other colours are available on request.
