Benefits of Disposable Cubicle Curtains & Traditional Textile Curtains
Cubicle curtains are used in medical treatment facilities to provide privacy and or block out the light.
They are suspended from a ceiling rack or supporting structure to be pulled back for more room or closed to add more privacy for examinations. These curtains are usually made with antimicrobial finishes plus flame retardant fabrics like cotton, polyester, nylon or vinyl.
Cubicle curtains are used to partition off holding rooms, preparation areas, overflows, and examination rooms. They are also used as dividers inpatient rooms and as privacy and security in surgical theatres.
Disposable Cubicle Curtains for Hospital Beds
There are many advantages to disposable cubicle curtains. They are lower in cost, help reduce laundering expenses, and prevent the spread of HAIs or hospital acquired infections.
Scientific and medical studies have found methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or MRSA on curtains in hospitals, clinics and nursing homes. Since this discovery, disposable cubicle curtains have become popular. Our disposable curtains are also coated with antimicrobial products. This mean the bacteria is stopped at the curtain line.
Disposable cubicle curtain panels come in different colors. Check the website for the color that suits your hospital, rest home or medical clinic. We do recommend, however, that you change your disposable curtains on a rotating basis. We suggest changing disposable curtains every six to nine months depending on the trust guidelines.

How to Measure For Curtains, Blinds and Tracks.
Make sure your curtain tracks and poles are fitted in the position you want.
Choose the type of curtains that you would like and how you want to hang your curtains. See our heading styles guide
We recommend fitting your hardware first before measuring, this avoids any issues with not getting the perfect fit.
Measure your window using our main guide. Quick summary below. Remember wave, pinch, and designer headings require slightly different measurement
Measure in 3 places and take the shortest drop – Floors and ceilings can run out.
Double / Triple check your measurements
Choosing your Curtain Track Width
The width of the curtain track should extend past your window this allows for the curtains to stack back away from your window and allow light in.
Measure your recess and then add on 15cm on either side. For acoustics , we recommend further to fully cover the window and the surrounding area. In our test we added an additional 30cm to the width and also made the curtain floor length.
Wave curtains, for every 100cm of track the curtains will stack circa *18cm
Eyelet curtains, they will stack back circa 10cm per *70cm of track width
Pencil Pleat will stack approx 25% of the track width. eg. 210cm track will stack 52.5%
* all dependent on thickness of fabric

How to Measure for Blinds going Inside the Recess
- Measure the exact width of the recess in three places; at the top of the recess, in the centre of the recess and near the bottom - then take the smallest size.
- Measure the exact drop of the recess in three places on the left hand side of the recess, in the centre of the recess and on the right hand side of the recess - then take the smallest size.
- We will take one cm off the finished width size you have given us, to allow for the blind to pull up and down easily.
- Double check your measurements
- Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the Fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm
How to Measure Outside of the Recess
- Measure the recess in 3 places on the width and also 3 places on the drop. Take the widest measurement.
- Measure the width of the actual recess plus an additional amount – Usually from 7cm-15cm whatever you think looks appropriate. This is for overlap.
- Measure the exact drop of the recess. The blind would be fitted above the recess, so check the space above and add an amount on to the drop – usually from 7-15cm
- These sizes you have taken will be the size of the finished blind.
- Double check your measurements
- Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm
