A coloured strip curtain is made from tinted PVC strips, and a frosted curtain uses semi-opaque strips. Besides the usual clear curtain, these options help with privacy, light control and visual zoning. This guide explains the choices and how to pick a colour for your site.
Colour is not just decoration. It affects visibility, light levels and sometimes the way a curtain works in a given process.
Clear strips give the best visibility. Coloured strips are tinted, with the colour passing some light but changing how the area looks. Frosted strips scatter light and hide detail, so they give privacy and cut glare while still letting light through.
Colours help to separate zones in a large building, for example a blue curtain for packing and a grey one for storage. They can also hide dirt better than clear strips, reduce glare from windows or lights and add a professional look to showrooms and offices.
Frosted curtains are good for areas where privacy matters, such as parts of a workshop, a testing area or a staff zone. They reduce glare but let in daylight, so the area does not become dark. Because you cannot see through them clearly, avoid frosted curtains at forklift doors without a window or mirror.
Some colours have a job. Orange and red strips are used for welding screens, and yellow or orange for insect control. See our guides to welding curtains and insect control curtains for details.
Ask what you want the curtain to do: show traffic, hide a view, cut glare or mark a zone. Pick a tint that supports that job and check visibility at the door. For safety, keep clear strips or a window at any door with moving vehicles.
Coloured and frosted strips come in the same widths and thicknesses as clear strips. Use the thickness and width chart to pick a size. Clean them with a mild detergent and soft cloth, and avoid solvents that can mark the colour.

Strong colours can make a curtain look heavier, so check that drivers and walkers can still see through it. For doors with forklifts, a clear or lightly tinted strip is safer than a dark one. A common solution is to use clear strips at the door and coloured strips only for partitions and zones inside the building, where no vehicles cross.
In showrooms and offices, a soft tint can match the interior and brand colours. In factories, colours can follow your safety plan, with one colour for each zone so that everyone knows where they are. Tell us the colours you prefer and the job of each area, and we will recommend the right strip and size.
