Wool serge fabric is made from sheep’s wool
which has been woven to create a fabric that is very thick and dense, and very
durable which makes it deal for stage curtains, especially for acoustic purposes.
Wool serge fabric is available in varying
widths from 120cm up to 180cm and comes in varying weights as well. These are
measured in grams per square metre (gsm) and can range from 300 gsm to 1kgsm.
The industry average is 500 gsm. Wool serge also comes in a variety of colours,
but the most common coloured curtains for stage work are black wool serge
curtains.
Wool serge is a natural material and is
inherently flame retardant without the need for use of any flame-retardant
chemicals. It reaches the standard of BS5867 Part2B. This is fine for use as
stage curtains, but if you want to use it for upholstery purposes then it has
to be back-coated so that it complies with BS5852. If you are buying the fabric
direct from a supplier, you should always ask if it is certified to the British
Standard. If it is not, your insurance could be null and void in the event of a
fire.
