Tulip Thermo Rod Pocket Roman Blind Tape Review
Channel: Windmill Curtain Room
Date: 2020-11-27

My usual method is to form Roman blind rod pockets by creating folds in the lining itself and then hand sewing on rings and/or child safe compliant breakaway rings. Occasionally I use sew on tape for more contract work or if I need to save time on large jobs or where the client has a smaller budget. I was intrigued therefore, when I saw this new Thermo Rod Pocket from Tulip Blinds Ltd which, rather than being sewn on, fixes to the lining by way of a heat activated polymer glue. I like the idea that the lining can be cut, prepared, marked out and taped up all without leaving the table using this tape so I thought I'd give it a try.

I'm making a Roman blind for an updated Integral Return video so thought it would be a good opportunity to try the tape too. This is an entirely independent review and I am not affiliated to Tulip Blinds.

Here's a link to the tape on the Tulip Blinds website which is a trade supplier. Home users will need to find a local curtain and blind maker who can order the tape for them.
