What are insulated curtains actually? The fabric that is used for these drapes is called foam thermal backing and it separates these window treatments from others. Most of these draperies are made with cotton or polyester, but here are also models that use blend of these two. To make these curtains machine washable, cotton and polyester blend is used.
