CUSTOM COLORS AVAILABILITY

FABRICATION
All curtains are to be box-pleated, a 6" pleat sewed down flat, on approximately 12" centers. Pleats shall be sewed on a double layer of vinyl-coated polyester weighing a total of 36 oz. per square yard, and permanently and inherently flame resistant. Material shall have a breaking strength of 252 lbs. warp, 237 lbs. fill, and a tear resistance of 76 lbs. warp and 82 lbs. fill. At both ends of all floor-length curtains, the heading material shall be turned back 4" and sewed down to provide a triple layer of heading at stress points. If jute or webbing heading is offered as an alternate, proof must be submitted with the bid that the alternate heading material has been treated to be flame resistant or is inherently flame resistant. Headings of all floor length curtains are to have three parallel rows of lock-stitching. Seams are to be hidden behind pleats. Place black brass grommets on each pleat and each top corner, set 1-1/4" from top of curtain. Provide a plated S-hook for each grommet. Provide a 2' 0" black tieline for curtains tied to batten.
All vertical seams shall be overlocked; no existing selvages of fabric are to remain on the curtains. Notched selvages are not acceptable.

HEMS

Leading edges of all traveler curtains shall have a minimum turnback of 24" of face material. This turnback shall be formed by turning back 24" of material and sewing it across the top hem. No vertical sewing of the turnback shall be done. All other vertical hems shall be 2." Bottom hems of all curtains shall be sewed with lockstitching. Blind stitching is not acceptable on any part of any curtain.
