PVC Strip Curtain Thickness Guide – Choosing Between 2mm, 3mm & 5mm

Selecting the right PVC strip curtain thickness is just as important as choosing the curtain itself. In India, the most common thickness options are:

Each thickness is suitable for specific environments and purposes. Making the wrong choice can lead to frequent wear and tear, poor insulation, or even safety issues.
