Product details

The 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.

The curtains lower the general light level and provide privacy by preventing people outside from seeing directly into the room.

Reviews

Hilja curtainsVerified ReviewerSlight damage to one curtain which was disappointing, but needed desperately so just kept until we can replace with something better.3
Plain white floaty curtainsVerified ReviewerThe quality is as expected and fabric is not at all shiny. Easy to cut to size and hem with hemming web. Filters the outside light but doesn’t block it. They do exactly what it says on the tin!!4
They are alright but not as describedVerified ReviewerThe Curtis are not as shown in the pictures they are very see through2
Great but not perfectVerified ReviewerWe love these curtains in white, and they are just the right length for the floor to ceiling look (we hang ours from a ceiling track) However, they do curl up at the bottom, which makes them look a bit cheap, which I suppose they are so we can’t really complain.4
It very nice in lookVerified ReviewerIt very nice in look and quality. Once up it changes the room’s atmosphere and brings in light in the room.5
Good for the priceVerified ReviewerGood for the price4
PerfectVerified ReviewerIt’s amazing and pretty defo feel like you have privacy5
Diffuses lightVerified ReviewerGood quality for the price. Softens the light and you can still see out. Also stop people seeing in easily. I nearly bought the way more expensive ones but these are just as good.5
NiceVerified ReviewerI like them but there is no pull cord on curtain tape, if there is please tell me where?3

Look very expensiveVerified ReviewerI have these everywhere in my Home and people always ask where they’re from and how much they were, I love them!5
Lovely curtainsVerified ReviewerI am very pleased with these curtains bought them in place of my heavy winter curtains which I had to take down during the heat wave! These have been great nice and light yet also allows for privacy good price also5
curtainsVerified Reviewernot up yet but have anothet pair in different colour and they are exactly what I wanted. thank you5
Brilliant!Verified ReviewerThese are fab! Really lovely colour and great value!5
Perfectly fineVerified ReviewerStruggle to find long curtains that aren’t custom made so Ikea are great for that. These are fairly thin but fine what our needs which is just to block full viewing into our kitchen which has large double doors into the garden so they don’t need to be thick just enough to give privacy. They’re a good price for the length4
These curtains look amazing.Verified ReviewerThese curtains look amazing.5
Very longVerified ReviewerVery long4
LightweightVerified ReviewerOrdered for summer as wanted something lightweight, but still providing a bit of privacy. Think they will fit purpose, but didn't get round to putting them up as by the time they arrived hardly seemed worth it. Will have them ready for next year though4
they were very thinVerified Reviewerthe curtains were very thin see through so they were cheap.2

Story

Our take on polyester

Polyester is a durable, wrinkle-resistant and easy-care material that is ideal for many home furnishing products like rugs, pillows, quilts and cushions. The downside to virgin polyester is that it is made from oil, coal or natural gas. This means that when we use virgin polyester, we are exhausting the planet’s natural resources. Our response to this, is to replace all virgin polyester with recycled in our products. In 2020, we achieved the milestone of replacing 79% of the virgin polyester used in IKEA textile products and will accelerate the transformation towards the aim of only using recycled polyester throughout the product range where polyester is used.

Virgin vs recycled polyester

Originally, all polyester was made from oil-based raw materials which are not renewable but we are switching to only using recycled polyester. The good thing is that polyester can be recycled over and over, without negatively affecting the quality of our products. When we make products from recycled polyester, we give a second life to material that is not biodegradable and reduce the amount that may otherwise end up in landfill or the ocean. Instead, PET and other sources of polyester are used to make textiles, storage boxes, kitchen fronts and even lamps. Recycled polyester is just as good as virgin polyester in terms of looks, quality and function, and produces about 50% less in CO2 emissions. And the material is just as clean and safe in every way.

Some challenges with recycled polyester

Recycled polyester makes us less dependent on oil. The amount we convert, is equal to the amount of virgin fossil fuel we eliminate from our polyester raw material (this excludes potential dyeing and other post recycled polyester production treatments). With some exceptions, the challenge is not the conversion of polyester into recycled itself, but to make it available to everyone by keeping it affordable. Buying low environmental impact products often comes with a higher price tag. We want to change that by working to make recycled polyester products more affordable and accessible to the many people.

Only recycled polyester

IKEA is committed to end the dependency on virgin fossil materials and only use renewable or recycled materials by 2030. We are accelerating this movement for polyester in our range and aim to replace all virgin polyester in our textile products with recycled. In 2020, IKEA replaced 79% of the virgin polyester used in IKEA textile products with recycled polyester. In volume, this means we converted 130,000 metric tonnes of recycled polyester, and saved 200,000 tonnes of virign polyester. We haven’t reached our 100% goal yet, but we have come far and overcome many obstacles on the way. These volumes make us a leader in converting to recycled polyester and we hope that our decisions can inspire and motivate whole industries to change.

Responsible sourcing

At IKEA, we demand that all recycled polyester used in IKEA products shall come from recyclers that are compliant with the Global Recycled Standard and traceability is secured to the IKEA product through requirements toward the IKEA Suppliers. By only using recycled polyester that meets the Global Recycled Standards we manage to secure social, environmental and chemical practices at the recycler’s production. We believe that the GRS standard is the best standard on the market today. We work with our partners and textile organisations such as Textile Exchange to further improve standards on recycled materials, including traceability of material beyond the recycling units.

Material

What is recycled polyester?

When we create products from recycled polyester, PET bottles and other sources of polyester get a new life in products like textiles, storage boxes, kitchen fronts and even lamps. When using them, you get to enjoy exactly the same quality and function as with virgin polyester products. And naturally, they’re just as clean and safe in every way. And perhaps the very best part – you contribute to using less new raw materials too.

Function solution

The fabric dims the daylight

The fabric dims the daylight entering the room when it is brighter outside, and reduces glare. It gives you a comfortable sense of privacy because people cannot see in during the daytime. At night, when the room is lit, it is possible to perceive shapes and silhouettes from outside.
