Dimout
United Supply Company carries two types of dimout drapery linings.
The first is the traditional one pass dimout consisting of a polyester cotton blended base cloth with one pass of acrylic backing. A one pass dimout blocks approximately 50% of light transmission.
The second type, Gemini, is a dobby woven fabric with a dark fabric woven between two face fabrics creating a 95% block out of light transmission. Gemini can be used as either an interlining or a stand-alone drapery.
BlackOut Lite 1 pass is the best-selling dim-out.
