Coconut fiber roll-up blind: adjust the shade to the height you want
The only product in the range that adjusts throughout the day
While standard curtains slide to the side, this blind adjusts vertically. It is a difference in function rather than material: at 1:00 PM, you unroll it fully to block the midday sun; at 6:00 PM, you raise it halfway to regain the view without letting the heat back in; and in the evening, you roll it up completely. The blind stays in your chosen position, allowing you to control the amount of shade rather than choosing between fully open and fully closed. This flexibility makes it particularly suitable for shifting sun exposure—such as a west-facing gable, a terrace side grazed by the sun in the late afternoon, or a large window hit directly by midday light. For a panel that opens sideways and is then left in place, sliding loop curtains are a better fit.
A 60 mm top hem—no extra hardware needed
Installation simply involves sliding a rod through the top hem, which has an internal diameter of 60 mm. Any bar, rod, or tube smaller than 60 mm works, including those already installed on many pergolas and awnings. No mechanisms, no housing units, and no heavy-duty drilling: it is the quickest installation in the entire curtain range, and just as easy to take down. Whether a storm is forecast, you’re heading away for the weekend, or the season is ending sooner than expected—simply roll it up, slide out the rod, and the blind is packed away in two minutes. A new addition for 2026, it is also the only model in the range that is fully biodegradable, as it contains no metal parts.
Three sizes, including one designed for low-profile applications
Three sizes are available: 1.5 x 2 m, 2 x 2.5 m, and 2 x 1.5 m. The first two cover standard terrace and pergola heights. The third—wider than it is tall—addresses common needs: screening a balcony railing, extending the height of a terrace balustrade, or raising a low wall without blocking the view above. For these partial installations, it is best to choose a blind slightly wider than the area to be covered so that sunlight doesn’t slip in at the edges when the sun is low. Whether poolside or facing the sea, the open weave offers distinct advantages: it filters light without creating a solid wall, and wind resistance remains very low.
Fiber characteristics and maintenance
The woven material weighs 900 g/m² when dry and doubles in weight when wet before regaining its tension upon drying; the support rod must therefore be sized to handle the wet weight, and it is best to avoid rolling up the blind while it is still damp. The fiber is water-resistant, does not retain moisture, and does not rot. Occasional washing with mild soap is sufficient, and during prolonged dry spells, an occasional misting helps extend its lifespan. The color gradually shifts to a silvery gray without compromising performance. For winter storage, keep the blind in a dry, well-ventilated area protected from rodents. If none of the three standard sizes fits your opening, custom-made options are available based on your exact measurements. The rest of the collection is featured in the coconut fiber curtains category, including the grommet-style coconut fiber curtains designed to open from the side.
Indoor coir rug: natural fiber flooring with a clean, unadorned look
This indoor coir rug dresses your floor in raw, natural material, free from borders or ornamentation. Woven from coconut fiber, it offers a warm texture and hue that synthetic alternatives try—but fail—to truly replicate. Its raw, unfinished edges create a clean, graphic aesthetic that fits perfectly in contemporary interiors, minimalist décor, or coastal-style homes. Whether placed on light-colored tile, blonde wood flooring, or grey polished concrete, it softens the floor’s coolness and visually warms up the entire room.
Three sizes to suit any room
The rug is available in three sizes: 140×200 cm, 200×300 cm, and 240×300 cm. The smallest size is ideal for an entryway, a wide hallway, or the foot of a bed. The 200×300 cm option is a classic living room size—generous enough to accommodate a coffee table and the front legs of a sofa. The 240×300 cm size covers a full living area or master bedroom while allowing for easy circulation around the edges. Each rug is delivered rolled up and can be laid down without tools or special preparation.
Stays in place thanks to its latex backing
The underside features a latex coating that grips the floor, preventing the rug from slipping or shifting when walked upon. There is no need for adhesive strips or non-slip underlays; the rug stays exactly where you place it, yet can be removed or repositioned in seconds. This grip works effectively on tile, hardwood, laminate, and polished concrete alike.
Insulating and durable fiber
With a thickness of 13 mm and a weight of 1.6 kg/m², coir fiber creates a genuine barrier between your feet and the floor, insulating against the cold of tiled floors in winter and heat buildup in summer. The material is rot-proof—meaning it is unaffected by normal ambient humidity—and retains its density over time. Our mats come with a 2-year warranty and have an average lifespan of 3 to 4 years, depending on foot traffic.
Where to use it—and where to avoid it
Entrances, living rooms, bedrooms, offices, hallways, guest rooms: coir mats are suitable for any dry area. However, they are not suitable for wet rooms (bathrooms, laundry rooms), highly humid spaces, or floors prone to rising damp; prolonged exposure would eventually cause mold to develop in the fibers. For outdoor use—on sand, grass, or gravel—we recommend our coir walkway mat, which features a herringbone weave and a weight specifically designed for outdoor conditions.
Simple carpet-style maintenance
Regular vacuuming is all that is needed for day-to-day care. For stains, a little water and black soap can handle most household spills without damaging the fiber. No chemical treatments are applied to the product; the material is raw, bio-sourced, and fully biodegradable at the end of its life. It is made from repurposed coconut husks—a previously unused resource—and is woven in India by our long-standing partner.
With or without binding: which to choose?
This model features raw edges, without an added border finish. If you prefer a more refined look, the coir mat with binding features the same fiber and latex backing but adds a brown cotton twill border—approximately 7.3 cm wide—stitched around the entire perimeter. The binding softens the mat’s profile, protects the edges, and is better suited to classic interiors or formal reception rooms. The weave, thickness, dimensions, and maintenance requirements remain identical; the choice comes down solely to the finish. Our full range of floor coverings can be found in the coir runners and flooring category, and an installation guide details the fitting process based on the type of subfloor.
Non-slip coir rug: natural fiber with a cotton binding
This non-slip coir rug is distinguished by its border: a brown, 100% cotton twill binding—measuring approximately 7.3 cm when laid—stitched along all four sides. This finish frames the weave, gives the rug structure within the room, and provides a polished, tailored look that the raw fiber alone lacks. The contrast between the warm beige of the coir and the brown binding creates a crisp line on the floor; it complements classic interiors, reception rooms, and décor styles where the goal is a distinct, standalone piece rather than seamless wall-to-wall flooring.
The real purpose of the binding
The border is about more than just style. Stitched around the entire perimeter, it encases the raw edges of the weave and prevents the fiber from fraying at the corners—the areas subject to the most friction from chair movement, furniture legs, and vacuuming. It also adds rigidity to the rug’s edges, minimizing corner curling. For a rug intended to remain in a living area for years, this detail makes the difference between an edge that ages well and one that unravels.
Non-slip thanks to latex, not an add-on accessory
The entire underside is coated with latex. This coating creates direct grip with the floor surface, eliminating the need for underlays, adhesive strips, or anti-slip sprays. In practical terms, the rug doesn’t slide forward when stepped on, doesn’t bunch up when a chair is pulled back, and stays put on smooth tile, varnished wood, laminate, or polished concrete. It is also just as easy to remove as it is to lay down, leaving no marks or sticky residue on the floor.
Choosing the right size for your furniture
Three sizes are available: 140×200, 200×300, and 240×300 cm. A simple rule of thumb: in the living room, aim for a rug large enough to accommodate at least the front legs of the sofa and the coffee table; otherwise, the arrangement can look like it is floating. Under a dining table, allow for an overhang of at least 60 cm on each side so that chairs remain on the rug even when pulled out. In the bedroom, the 240×300 cm size allows the fibers to extend beyond the sides of the bed, ensuring your feet touch the material first thing in the morning. Delivered in a roll; it lies flat immediately.
A raw material, free from chemical treatments
The fiber comes from the coconut husk—a part of the fruit once considered waste but now valued as a resource. It is woven in India by our long-standing partner without any chemical treatments: no dyes, stain-proofing, or fire-retardant additives. The product remains bio-based and fully biodegradable at the end of its life. With a thickness of 13 mm and a density of 1,600 g/m², it creates a genuine insulating layer between your feet and the floor, protecting against both extremes: it shields you from the cold of tiled floors in winter and the heat buildup of summer.
Suitable rooms—and those to avoid
Living room, dining room, bedroom, home office, entryway, or landing: it is suitable for any dry floor. The only restriction is prolonged exposure to moisture. Avoid bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, or floors prone to rising damp; the fibers would eventually develop mold, and the cotton binding would retain water even longer than the coir itself. For outdoor use—on soil, gravel, or grass—opt for the coir walkway, woven and weighted specifically for outdoor durability. Our coir flooring installation guide details the laying process based on the underlying surface.
Maintenance: vacuuming and black soap for spills
Coir is maintained just like standard carpeting. Regular vacuuming is enough to remove dust from the weave. For stains, a little warm water and black soap—applied by dabbing rather than soaking the fibers—will handle most household spills. Treat the binding tape the same way, making sure to dry the cotton afterwards. The rug comes with a 2-year warranty and has an average lifespan of 3 to 4 years, depending on foot traffic.
Binding tape or raw edges: the key question
If binding tape feels like too much, the unbound coir rug is available in the same dimensions, using the same fiber, thickness, and latex backing; only the edges differ, left raw for a more graphic, minimalist look. The choice ultimately comes down to your decorative preference: binding tape dresses up and protects the edges, while raw edges blend seamlessly into the background. Both models—and our entire range of floor coverings—can be found in the coir walkways and flooring category.

Coconut fiber walkway: a natural access mat for sand, grass, and gravel
Creating a walkable path where the ground is unstable is exactly what the coconut fiber walkway is designed for. Whether rolled out over sand, grass, gravel, or even a concrete slab, this coconut fiber mat stabilizes your footing, prevents sinking, and protects bare feet from scorching sand in the heat of summer. Its 15 mm thick herringbone weave provides a firm, non-slip surface that retains its natural look season after season. From private beaches, campsites, hotels, and gardens to poolside paths, leisure areas, and event sites—wherever you need to connect two points without pouring concrete, it serves as an excellent alternative to a permanent hard-surface path.
Three widths, cut to length: a path sized just right
The coconut fiber walkway is available in widths of 80 cm, 100 cm, and 120 cm. It is cut to order by the meter or in 0.50 m increments, with a minimum length of 1.50 m and a maximum of 30 m per order—enough to cover anything from a short path between a terrace and a gate to a full dune crossing. The 80 cm width suits single-file pedestrian traffic, the 100 cm width allows two people to pass each other, and the 120 cm width accommodates heavy foot traffic or the passage of a cart. For paths longer than 30 m, multiple rolls can be laid edge-to-edge without a visible seam, as the herringbone pattern naturally conceals the joints.
Suitable for PRM access and light vehicles
Its density—1,800 g/m² (dry)—allows it to withstand heavy, continuous traffic without losing its shape. It allows for the movement of people with reduced mobility—provided the slope remains under 10%—as well as the passage of light vehicles. The product itself can be laid on slopes of up to 15%. When placed on sand, it distributes weight and prevents wheelchair or stroller wheels from sinking in, making it a popular solution for seasonal beach access paths.
Quick and easy installation and removal
Supplied in a roll with instructions, the access path simply unrolls into place without the need for tools or ground preparation. It is just as easy to remove, roll up, and store, making it ideal for seasonal setups that are dismantled in the autumn. In windy or high-traffic areas, a few fasteners at the ends are all that is needed to keep it secure. The coir flooring installation guide details the various laying methods depending on the surface.
A natural fiber resistant to rain and moisture
Coconut fiber is rot-proof: it does not decay and does not retain water. When exposed to rain or sea spray, the mat becomes heavier—increasing in weight to 3,600 g/m²—but dries in the sun without deteriorating. It also provides insulation against the heat or cold of the underlying ground, which explains the comfortable feel underfoot during hot weather. Made from repurposed coconut husks and produced in India by our long-standing partner, this material is bio-based, 100% biodegradable, and free from chemical treatments.
Minimal maintenance
An occasional sweep and regular shaking to remove sand and twigs are all it takes to restore the mat’s appearance. For stains, washing with black soap and a little water is sufficient. Like all our products outside the “Coco Robusta” range, the coconut fiber walkway comes with a 2-year warranty and has an average lifespan of 3 to 4 years in outdoor use.
Complete your décor with other coconut fiber flooring options
This walkway is a natural extension of a product range designed for both indoor and outdoor use. To enhance an entryway, hallway, or living area, the indoor coconut fiber mat features the same fiber but with a finish suited for finished interior floors. The coconut fiber mat with binding adds a sewn border and a non-slip backing, offering a more polished look for reception areas. Our entire collection of floor coverings can be found in the coconut fiber walkways and flooring category; they pair seamlessly with our fabrics, shades, and curtains made from the same material.

Open-hem coconut fiber outdoor curtain: a taut panel, not a sliding curtain
The right choice for a fixed curtain
Not all outdoor curtains are meant to be opened and closed ten times a day. The open-hem model is designed to remain taut: install it on the side of a pergola exposed to low late-afternoon sun, at the back of a gazebo, between two posts to enclose a patio corner, or as a lightweight partition between a dining area and a walkway. It is not designed to slide along its rod—which is precisely what gives it such a uniform drape, free of folds or bulky bunching. To open it, simply lift the panel to the side and secure it with a rope or tie-back. If, however, you are looking for a curtain to handle daily, consider the loop-top sliding coconut curtains or the grommet-style sliding coconut curtains, both of which are constructed to withstand repeated sliding.
Two 60 mm hems: what this means for installation
The curtain features a hem at both the top and bottom edges, with an internal diameter of 60 mm. In practical terms, the curtain slides onto its support—such as a rod, metal bar, wooden batten, tube, or steel cable—like a sock. Anything that fits through a 60 mm opening is suitable, provided there is enough clearance to avoid straining the fiber. The order of operations matters: first slide the bar into the hem, then attach the ends to the supports—never the other way around. For a 2-meter width, it is best to avoid overly thin rods, which would visibly sag in the middle. A detail often overlooked: the bottom hem isn’t just for show. Sliding a second bar into it transforms the panel into a taut screen that won’t flap in the slightest breeze—this simple step makes the difference between a curtain that hangs beautifully and one that bangs against the post.
900 g/m²: filtering light rather than blocking it
With a dry weight of 900 grams per square meter and a thickness of one centimeter, this weave is intentionally designed to be less dense than full blackout screens. It intercepts direct rays, cuts down on glare, and lowers the perceived temperature behind it, all while allowing soft, diffused light to filter through—so you aren’t left in the dark under the pergola at the end of the day. The mesh remains breathable, allowing air to pass through, and wind resistance stays very low for a panel of this height—a crucial factor for a pergola where the curtain is fully exposed. If your priority is blocking the view from neighbors rather than softening the sunlight, you should look at the category’s blackout screens; the hemmed curtain, by contrast, focuses on ambiance and thermal comfort.
Sizes, durability, and winter storage
Three sizes cover the most common configurations: 1.5 x 2.2 m, 1.5 x 2.8 m, and 2 x 2.5 m. Note that the usable height is slightly reduced once the bars are inserted into the hems—something to factor in when measuring the clearance under your beams. Also, anticipate how the fiber reacts to moisture: the weave stretches when wet and its weight doubles, then it tightens back up as it dries. Consequently, the rod and brackets—sized for the dry state—will be subjected to greater stress during every downpour. The rest of the maintenance is minimal: an occasional wash with mild soap suffices; the fiber is rot-resistant and slowly turns a silvery-grey without losing any of its effectiveness. At the end of the season, the panel can be stripped of its bars, folded or rolled up, and stored in a dry, well-ventilated place safe from rodents—ensuring it lasts for several more seasons. Other models in the range can be found in the coconut fiber curtains category.

Discover the benefits of our cantilever coconut fiber parasol
Natural, durable sun protection with authentic style
Add a touch of the exotic and refreshing shade to your outdoor spaces with our cantilever parasol made from natural coconut fiber, mounted on a reinforced aluminum pole. Ideal for terraces, beaches, pool areas, or gardens, this parasol combines rustic elegance with technical performance. The coconut fibers naturally filter UV rays while allowing air to circulate, creating an airy, pleasant, and visually unique shaded area. Its natural, bohemian look makes it a standout decorative feature while ensuring optimal thermal comfort. Explore our full range in the coconut parasols category.
Structural strength and weather resistance
Built to last, our parasol features a reinforced aluminum pole and ribs, ensuring maximum resistance to wind, impact, and corrosion. Unlike untreated wood or steel structures, the powder-coated aluminum used does not rust, even in salty environments. The coconut fiber is resistant to UV rays, moisture, and changing weather conditions, allowing for year-round use—even in challenging conditions such as the Mistral, Tramontane, or strong sea breezes.
Easy installation and versatility for any setting
Available in various diameters, our cantilever parasol is suitable for both private spaces and professional environments (hotels, restaurants, seaside resorts). Depending on your space layout, you can choose a round center-pole parasol—perfect for shading a lounge area or a round table—or a rectangular center-pole parasol, which is better suited for long dining tables and elongated terraces. It can be installed directly on a terrace using a suitable weighted base. Assembly is straightforward, thanks to a design that allows for quick setup by two people without the need for complex tools.
A natural, customizable parasol with a warranty
We offer several standard sizes as well as custom manufacturing to meet the specific needs of each project. Whether you wish to cover a relaxation area, a dining spot, or a large terrace, we will help you select the right model and dimensions. Each parasol comes with a 2-year warranty and a comprehensive installation guide. To extend its lifespan, we recommend storing it away during long periods of non-use. It is also possible to replace the canopy fabric on your parasols. For more information, please refer to the custom parasols section.

Rectangular center-pole parasol: covering a long table without overkill
Why a rectangle instead of a round shape?
It is not a question of aesthetics, but of arithmetic. To keep the ends of a two-by-one-meter table shaded, a round parasol would need a three-meter diameter—meaning most of that shaded area would fall beside the table, into empty space. A rectangular parasol follows the shape of what it protects: less fabric, less wind resistance, and a smaller footprint, all while providing more complete shade. It is therefore the ideal choice for large dining setups, long terraces, rows of sun loungers, and covered walkways. For a garden lounge set, a round table, or a square space, the round center-pole parasol remains the right choice.
The center pole: greater stability, less ballast
This is the technical difference compared to a cantilever model, and it works in favor of the center-pole design. The load travels vertically down the axis of the pole without creating leverage; consequently, the required ballast is significantly lower for the same amount of shade, the structure withstands gusts better, and the footprint is limited to the base itself. The powder-coated aluminum pole and ribs do not rust—even in salty air—and withstand repeated opening cycles without developing looseness. There is, of course, a trade-off: the pole passes through the shaded area. If you have a table with a central hole, this is a non-issue; if your furniture cannot accommodate a pole, the offset rectangular sunshade leaves the entire area underneath clear, though it requires a heavier base.
Coconut fiber: what to know before buying
The natural weave filters light rather than blocking it and allows air to pass through the canopy, preventing the stifling heat often felt under a standard parasol in the late afternoon. It is also a living material: the color evolves from season to season, darkening slightly—part of the appeal for those who prefer it over the uniform look of synthetic fabrics. Maintenance is minimal, requiring only a dry brushing at the start of the season. However, the material does not fare well if left damp inside a closed cover; the parasol should be folded when dry and stored indoors during winter. Other versions of this product are available in the coconut fiber parasols category.
Dimensions, custom manufacturing, and re-covering
The key factor is not the size of the parasol itself, but the size of the area requiring shade during your intended hours of use: a table seating eight people requires a different amount of overhang at noon compared to 6 PM. Several standard sizes are available, with custom manufacturing options for cases where standard sizes don’t fit—such as for professional use, restaurant terraces, or specific installation constraints. Comes with a 2-year warranty and instructions; assembly requires two people and no special tools. Since the canopy is the part that shows wear first, it can be replaced independently without changing the structure: see the custom parasols section.

Round center-pole parasol: the most versatile shape
Symmetry: an underrated advantage
A round parasol casts the same shadow in all directions, regardless of the time of day. As the sun moves, the shaded area remains centered on the pole; there is no need to reorient or shift the parasol between lunch and drinks. This makes it the go-to choice for round or square tables, garden lounge sets, reading nooks, or relaxation areas with no specific geometric layout. It is also forgiving regarding placement—a poorly oriented rectangular parasol might leave a corner exposed to the sun, whereas a round one has no specific orientation. Conversely, if your space is distinctly elongated, the rectangular center-pole parasol will cover the same usable area with less canopy fabric.
Ease of setup
It is the simplest model to install: a weighted base on the patio, a pole, and the job is done. The load is distributed vertically without leverage, minimizing the required ballast and footprint compared to a cantilever model. The powder-coated aluminum pole and ribs are rust-proof—even in seaside locations—and withstand repeated opening cycles without becoming loose or wobbly. It can be opened and closed by one person in seconds—a feature that matters more than you might think for a parasol used daily. However, the pole does occupy space within the shaded area; if your furniture cannot accommodate this, the Offset rectangular sunshade leaves the entire area unobstructed.
The benefits and requirements of coconut fiber
The natural weave filters light rather than blocking it and allows air to pass through the canopy, avoiding the stifling, trapped-heat effect often felt under a standard parasol in the late afternoon. It is a living material; its color deepens slightly over the seasons—a transformation that is part of its unique appeal. Maintenance simply requires a dry brushing at the start of the season. The only thing to watch out for is leaving it damp inside a closed cover. Fold the parasol when dry and store it indoors for the winter, and it will last for years. Other versions of this material can be found in the coconut fiber parasols category.
Choosing the diameter, custom options, and canopy replacement
The key factor isn’t just the listed diameter, but the desired overhang around the table: allow for about fifty centimeters of canopy extending beyond the table edge so guests stay shaded as the sun lowers. A table for four requires a different model than a table for eight; we are happy to help you decide based on your specific dimensions. Several standard diameters are available, with custom manufacturing options for professional use or specific installation requirements. Comes with a 2-year warranty, instructions, and is designed for two-person assembly without special tools. Since the canopy is the part that ages first, it can be replaced independently without altering the structure—see the custom parasols section.

Coconut fiber sliding curtain with eyelets: the charm of antiqued brass, indoors and out
A finish that stands out
With this model, the curtain header does more than just hold the panel in place—it is part of the décor. The eyelets are made of “Antique Brass” and set onto a cotton header tape; their dark patina contrasts beautifully with the warm tone of the coconut fiber. It is a finish that catches the eye up close—as you walk past the curtain throughout the day—and truly comes into its own on a terrace with character, featuring elements like old stonework, wrought iron, or vintage furniture. The eyelets also have a subtler yet equally noticeable effect: they distribute the fabric into even folds, allowing the curtain to hang with a uniformity not found in other systems in the range. For a panel that is often left open and folded to one side, this draping makes all the difference.
40 mm eyelets: what this means for installation
The inner diameter is 40 mm—ten millimeters larger than that of the loop-style sliding curtains. In practical terms, this expands your choice of mounting hardware: a substantial curtain rod or a thick wooden batten will fit easily, whereas loop-style curtains require something slimmer. If your pergola already has a bar, rod, or tube installed, measure it before ordering—there is a good chance it will work as-is. While a tensioned steel cable remains an option and offers the smoothest sliding action, it is not the ideal choice here; a wide eyelet slides better on a rigid support that keeps the curtain header properly aligned.
Brass does not rust, resolving any concerns about exposure to the elements, and the cotton binding withstands daily use without a hitch.
The only model in the range suitable for indoor use
This is a use case we hadn’t anticipated but which customers discovered on their own: the curtain works beautifully indoors. In a living room, it serves as a flexible partition between spaces, filters light from a south-facing window, or conceals a storage area without completely closing off the room. The raw texture of the fiber and the patinated brass complement interiors featuring wood, polished concrete, or terracotta tiles, while the weave allows enough light through to keep the room bright. For indoor installations, it is best to choose a size slightly taller than the opening so the bottom of the curtain touches the floor, helping it stay in place. Worth noting for the eco-conscious: the fiber is bio-based and fully biodegradable—the metal eyelets being the only exception.
Four sizes, weighting, and durability
Four sizes are available: 1.4 x 2.4 m, 1.5 x 2.2 m, 1.5 x 2.8 m, and 2 x 2.5 m. The 60 mm bottom hem accommodates a weighting bar or rod—useful outdoors to prevent the panel from flapping in the wind, though unnecessary indoors. The fiber weighs 900 g/m² when dry and doubles in weight when wet, regaining its tension as it dries; the mounting hardware must be rated to handle the wet weight. This is precisely where the difference in diameter compared to loop-based systems matters: a 40 mm eyelet requires a sturdier rod. Occasional washing with mild soap is sufficient; the color will naturally shift to a silvery-grey without any loss of effectiveness. For winter storage, keep the product in a dry, well-ventilated area protected from rodents. If none of the four standard sizes fits your needs, a custom-made coir curtain can be produced based on your specific measurements. The rest of the range is featured in the coir curtains category, including open-hem coir curtains, designed for panels that remain permanently tensioned.

Open hem coconut outdoor curtain: a taut panel, not a sliding curtain
The right choice when the curtain stays in place
Not all outdoor curtains are meant to be opened and closed ten times a day. The open hem model is designed to remain taut: it is installed on one side of the pergola exposed to the low, late afternoon sun, at the bottom of an arbor, between two posts to close a corner of the terrace, or as a light partition between a dining area and a passage. It is not designed to slide on its rod – this is what gives it this regular drape, without folds or excess thickness. The opening is done laterally, by raising the panel on the side and embracing it with a rope or tie. If, on the contrary, you are looking for a curtain that can be handled daily, turn to the sliding coconut curtains with loops or to the sliding curtains with eyelets, the manufacture of which is intended for repeated sliding.
Two 60 mm hems: what changes it makes when installing
The confection has a hem on each of the two widths, top and bottom, with an internal diameter of 60 mm. Concretely, the curtain is slipped like a sock on its support: rod, metal rod, wooden cleat, tube or steel cable – anything that passes within 60 mm is suitable, keeping a little play so that the fiber does not strain. The order of operations matters: first thread the bar into the hem, then attach the ends to the supports, never the other way around. On a width of 2 m, it is better to avoid rods that are too thin which would have a visible sag in the center. Often overlooked point: the bottom hem is not decorative. Slipping a second bar into it transforms the panel into a taut screen which no longer flaps at the slightest breath – it’s the gesture which makes the difference between a curtain which is enjoying its season and one which slams against the post.
900 g/m²: filtering light rather than cutting it
With 900 grams per square meter dry for one centimeter thick, this weave is deliberately set back from blackout screens. It intercepts direct rays, breaks the glare and lowers the temperature felt behind it, while allowing subdued light to filter through: you don’t find yourself in the dark under the pergola at the end of the day. The mesh remains ventilated, the air passes through it, and the wind resistance remains very low for a panel of this height – a decisive point on a pergola where the curtain works on the full facade. If your priority is to eliminate a view rather than to soften the sun, it is towards the blackout screens of the category that you should look; the hemmed curtain plays on the atmosphere and thermal comfort.
Formats, durability and wintering
Three dimensions cover the most common configurations: 1.5 x 2.2 m, 1.5 x 2.8 m and 2 x 2.5 m, knowing that the useful height is slightly reduced once the bars are engaged in the hems – to be included when measuring your height under the beam. Also anticipate the behavior of the fiber in humidity: the weave relaxes in the rain, the mass doubles, then the tension returns when drying. A rod and supports sized for dry conditions will therefore be used more with each downpour. The rest of the maintenance requires just a few things: an occasional wash with mild soap is enough, the fiber is rot-proof and slowly turns towards a silvery gray without losing any of its effectiveness. At the end of the season, the panel is removed from its bars, folded or rolled up, and stored in a dry, well-ventilated place, protected from rodents – a few more seasons at stake. The other models in the range are grouped together in the coconut curtains category.
