Ripple/Wave/S-fold

The S-Fold heading showcases the latest trend in curtain styles, offering a simple, streamlined and symmetrical alternative to more elaborate pleated curtain headings. The “S” shape is formed by sewing the fabric flat on to the heading tape, then the finished curtain is hung on special carriers which are dedicated S-Fold track or rod.
