Curtains with a sheer fabric provide privacy, while letting daylight through and help you feel connected with the world outside the window.
The curtains are made from 41 recycled 0.5l PET bottles. Using waste as a resource brings us one step closer to a more sustainable future.
The sheer curtains let the daylight through but provide privacy so they are perfect to use in a layered window solution.
The curtains can be used on a curtain rod or a curtain track.
The heading tape makes it easy for you to create pleats using RIKTIG curtain hooks.
You can hang the curtains on a curtain rod through the hidden tabs or with rings and hooks.

Long Term Benefits
The sheer fabric diffuses daylight entering the room when it is brighter outside, and softens glare on TV’s and digital screens. It gives a sense of still being connected to the world outside. In the daytime, people outdoors can perceive shapes and silhouettes indoors, but at night, when the room is lit, there is no privacy. Sheer fabric is ideal for layered window solutions.
Sheer curtains are an easy and decorative way to create some privacy, even if you live in a densely populated area with windows facing the street or other houses. My idea when I designed the sheer curtains was for them to function both on their own and together with blackout curtains. I designed some with graphic patterns and others with more romantic patterns, and worked with both woven and knitted fabrics ‒ so there’s bound to be something for everyone!
Polyester is a durable, quick-drying and insulating material that is optimal to use for textiles and as filling in pillows, quilts and furniture. The material is made from crude oil – a limited resource. Since IKEA doesn’t want to contribute to more virgin oil being used, we are now gradually switching to recycled and traceable polyester from sources like PET bottles. What’s nice is that polyester can be recycled over and over, without changing or losing its great qualities.
