They are crafted from a durable material (typically PVC-coated polyester) that is engineered to filter harsh sunlight and block ultraviolet (UV) rays. Unlike blackout roller window shades that create darkness, solar shades reduce glare and heat gain while still preserving your outside view. By rejecting a significant portion of the sun's solar energy, they protect your furnishings from fading and help keep rooms cooler, making them an energy-efficient solution for sun-drenched windows.

• Dry: Allow the shade to air dry completely before rolling it back up. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive tools, or excessive moisture, which can damage the fabric.
