Roller Fabrics
From light-filtering in a variety of available transparencies, to room darkening for optimum privacy, EcoSmart Shades has roller shade fabric options for every situation.
What Makes Roller Fabric Such a Great Choice?
- It’s Durable: Roller shade fabric is tough. It can withstand years of frequent use and still hold up like new.
- It’s Sleek: Roller shade fabric is thin and won’t overwhelm the aesthetics of your windows.
- It’s Easy to Clean: Wipe down your fabric with a damp sponge and almost any non-bleach cleaning solution.
- It’s Economical: Compared to other popular window covering materials, roller shade fabric provides cost savings and tremendous value!
(However, if insulation and energy savings is a primary concern, you can’t beat our EcoSmart cellular fabrics. Learn more about the r-value of our cellular shades here.)

Light-Filtering Fabrics
- The most commonly purchased fabrics.
- Allow a glow of light in the room while still maintaining some privacy, depending on the specific option selected.

- 1% Open – The most privacy among light-filtering roller shade options. From the outside, a vague silhouette of inside contents may be seen.
- 3% Open – From the outside, a distinct outline of inside contents may be seen.
- 5% Open – From the outside, contents inside may be recognizable.
- 10% Open – Quite sheer, with visibility of inside contents.

Room Darkening Fabrics
- Also known as “0% Open”.
- Excellent for rooms that need privacy and relative darkness.
- Block over 99% of light, although there will be light gaps at the sides of the shade, due to the roller assembly being wider than the fabric.
- Provide total privacy, as they are opaque from outside the home.
