Description:
A strip that creates four consecutive folds (twists) when installed—gives a very dense and luxurious look to the curtain, suitable for formal spaces and heavy curtains.

Materials:
It is made of polyester or a polyester/nylon blend with internal reinforcing threads to bear the weight, and in some types it is reinforced with an additional fabric strip for sewing.

Common dimensions and sizes:

• Tape width: usually from 6 cm to 12 cm.

• Fullness ratio: A fabric 2–3 times the width of the space is required to achieve full, high pleats.

Ideal uses:

• Luxurious curtains for halls and event venues.

• High-end hotels, exhibition halls, and interior design applications.

Installation instructions:

• The tape is sewn onto the top of the curtain and secured with metal brackets or rings, depending on the system.

• You need to create precise pleats when sewing or use auxiliary strips to adjust the pleats.

• Adjusting the height of the pleats is done before installing the rings on the rail.

Care and cleaning:

• Dry cleaning is recommended for heavy curtains with 4-thread tape to maintain the shape of the pleats.

• In the case of automatic washing, a gentle program and hang drying should be used.

Features:

• A very luxurious and dense appearance.

• It gives a professional impression and is suitable for luxurious decorations.

• It can withstand heavy fabrics.

Disadvantages/Comments:

• More fabric is needed (higher cost due to fullness).

• Assembling and arranging the folds requires skill.

• Moving or rearranging the pleats after installation may require a simple re-stitching.

Buying advice:
Request samples before purchasing, and discuss with the manufacturer the required fill ratio (2-3×) to accurately determine the quantity of fabric and cost.
