Drawing the Curtains

Turn off that light!

In today's modern lives of business, blackout shades are a blessing; however, they began as a saving grace during WWII. Blackout material originated during WWII in Great Britain to conceal light from the German planes. According to BBC, Blackout curtains' stopped light from rooms showing from outside. There were no street lights either. The idea was to stop lights from towns guiding enemy planes to drop bombs. German pilots were given the go-ahead to bomb buildings if they saw light. WWII has ended and blackout shades have evolved into more economic uses that include saving your customers money.

Reasons for Blackout Shades
Blackout shades have three main functions

• Reduce energy costs
• block light
• and help noise reduction

Blackout Shades Block Light

Blackout shades can create the ambiance of night for those that work at night and sleep during the day or those that live in a big city and have to sleep with a streetlight outside their bedroom window. They are also a must-have for media rooms giving a theatrical experience. Blackout shades even help reduce the glare on television screens.
