CELLULAR SHADES
Also called "Honeycomb" or "Insulating" Shades
Cellular shades are made from cells which are designed to expand to cover a window, and collapse when the blinds are opened. The cellular shades are made from an unwoven polyester, and other durable and flexible materials.
OPTIONS: Come in many fabric options, pleat sizes, and lift options; single cell, double cell, triple cell (depending on amount of insulation you need). NOTE: If you do not need insulation, then consider regular pleated shades.
