Memory Training
Memory Training
Professional pleat setting process that ensures your curtains maintain their elegant, crisp folds for years to come.
What is Memory Training?
Memory Training, also known as pleat setting or shape retention treatment, is a professional finishing process that permanently sets the pleats and folds of your curtains. This specialized technique uses controlled heat and pressure to "train" the fabric to maintain its precise pleat structure, ensuring your curtains hang beautifully from the moment they're installed.
During the Memory Training process, curtains are carefully folded according to their pleat design, then subjected to a controlled steaming and pressing procedure. This treatment creates a molecular memory in the fabric fibers, allowing the pleats to naturally fall back into their intended position even after washing or handling.
Key Benefits:
- ✓Maintains crisp, uniform pleats that look professionally pressed at all times
- ✓Reduces wrinkles and creases for a polished appearance
- ✓Saves time on maintenance - no need for constant steaming or ironing
- ✓Extends the lifespan of your curtains by maintaining structural integrity
