Cellular or Honeycomb Shades

What is Cellular shade

Cellular shade — also called Honeycomb Shade — is a type of window covering made from soft fabric folded into a series of pleats, forming a honeycomb structure when viewed from the side.

Construction:

  • Layers of fabric are bonded together to create air pockets (cells) shaped like honeycombs. Those air pockets are not just decorative—they act as insulation.
  • Soft, crisp pleats stacks neatly when raised.

  • Cell sizes: Available in single-cell, double cell and duo cell (cell within a cell) construction for extra insulation. Bigger cell sizes of 9/16”, ¾” and 1 ¼” creates a cleaner look specially on larger windows
  • Color & Textures: A wide variety of beautiful fabrics in different colors and textures adds esthetic appeal to various interior styles.
  • Control Options: Cordless and motorized control options add enhanced safety feature and offers ultimate comfort experience
  • Day and night shade: Constructed with 2 fabrics (top & bottom) on a single shade unit: light filtering/sheer fabric and room darkening fabric. This multi functional shade provides the benefits of both fabrics in a single layer, save cost and creates a clean look
  • Sky Light Shades: excellent option for skylights, stay securely in place with tracks or tension systems, so they won’t sag. Also acts as a perfect thermal barrier
