Blackout Curtains

Motorised Curtain Tracks

With a huge range of flame retardant fabrics to choose from, we custom make your contract and specialist blackout curtains to your exact specifications. Including photographic studios, laboratories, theatres, offices, board rooms hotels and more.

Blackout curtains are more popular than ever before, finding a range of uses within both business and home environments. At Corona Contracts we design and manufacture all of our blackout curtains at our facility in Preston, then install them ourselves for our customers. Because we control each stage of the process, we’re able to provide the highest quality fit and finish available today.

Why blackout curtains?

Traditionally a staple of cinemas and upmarket hotels, curtains offering total blackout have grown in popularity and are now installed in many businesses and even residential buildings. The value of sleep should not be understated, but at the same time we all want access to as much natural light as possible. Blackout curtains offer the solution; allow all natural in when you want it then completely block it for deeper, more restful sleep. In order to be properly effective however, it is essential that these curtains are properly fitted to their installation space, which is why Corona manufacture all blackout curtains to order.

The benefits and uses of blackout curtains go far beyond better sleep, though. Offices and conference suites can benefit greatly from the light control they offer. We often work in offices which are fitted with floor to ceiling windows. Whilst these are visually very pleasing, they allow through such a huge amount of light that presentation screens, whiteboards and video conference equipment can be near impossible to use. Blackout curtains completely eliminate this light problem, allowing for increased concentration and focus and uninterrupted use of conference and office facilities.

Privacy for patients is actually enhanced using disposable systems when compared to most conventional fabrics.

Yes the disposable curtains are made from 100% polypropylene which has one of the lowest environmental impacts of any material – synthetic or traditional.

No. The curtains are manufactured from a durable disposable and completely recyclable polypropylene fabric which inhibits bacteria growth.

Three sizes of curtain are available:

  • Small: 2.4 metres long (1.8mtr track length)
  • Medium: 4.8metres (3.6 mtr track length)
  • Large: 7.2 metres (5.4 mtr track length)

You can use the normal clinical waste bins at your facility.

The curtains are durable and have shown that they can stay hanging for a year or more however we would recommend that each hospital carries out its own assessment to set the frequency at which the curtains should be changed in different areas.

Each curtain has a self audit label so that you can easily see when it was last changed and can be included within your existing infection control procedures

Disposable curtains comply with the same fire retardancy standards as conventional curtains BS 5867 Part 2 type C. Every batch of every colour supplied is tested.

The use of disposable curtains provides a cost effective solution to the management of hospital curtains:

  • No curtain laundry
  • No capital outlay for curtains
  • No disruption to ward area during change of curtains
