As with its higher spec Premium Ultimate (T3WPULT) it is made with high quality yarns to our own exacting specifications and produced on the latest Swiss-made narrow fabric looms and finished, inspected and packed by hand.
This tape is unsurpassed for consistency and quality.
Woven pocket tapes hold the hooks firmly in place with minimum sag, greater width in the pocket means more strength
High quality "stretch" draw cords run through tubes are easy to pleat and will stop pleating when the specified fullness is reached. This stops the pleats from spreading or bunching and three well spaced cords keep the pleats upright. The "D" pleat creates an even and balanced space between each pleat to create a luxurious effect on all weights of fabric.
2.5 fullness means less fabric is needed to create the full effect. Tapes requiring 3 x fullness need 20% more fabric and are therefore more expensive.
Fibrillated yarns are easier to work with and are cheaper than monofilaments so the end product can be made more reliably and cheaply. Historically fibrillated yarns have been used on cheaper tapes but the high warp and weft density of this product actually gives a product that looks at least as good as Platinum Ultimate. For heavier curtains we would always recommend Platinum Ultimate but in most cases this product will give you astonishing results.
