MD2317 Smooth Twill Roman Shades

Sometimes the most elegant solution is the simplest. MD2317 Smooth Twill roman shades offer a clean, uniform fabric surface with a subtle diagonal weave that reads as solid from a distance. There are no slubs, no patterns, no texture—just pure, unadorned color and the graceful folds of the roman shade. This minimalism makes MD2317 the ultimate “background” fabric: it recedes quietly, allowing other elements in the room—artwork, furniture, architectural details—to take center stage. Yet up close, the twill weave adds a whisper of visual interest, a refined texture that catches the light obliquely. Available in 10 neutral colors spanning cool and warm undertones: White, Ivory, Greige, Light Grey, Medium Grey, Charcoal, Beige, Taupe, Brown, Black. Full opacity range from light‑filtering to total blackout. Custom‑folded to your exact window dimensions. Essential, elevated.

Uniform Twill Weave

MD2317 is defined by its subtle diagonal twill rib, created by passing the weft yarn over one warp and under two in a consistent S‑twist pattern. The diagonal is refined—barely noticeable from a few feet away—but it gives the fabric a polished, textile‑rich character that flat, calendared materials simply don’t achieve. Every color in the MD2317 family shares this same smooth, uniform twill face.

Perfect Color Rendition

Because the surface is clean and uninterrupted by heavy texture, MD2317 delivers exceptionally accurate color expression. Designers rely on it when precise color matching matters. All ten colors are solution‑dyed, ensuring consistency from roll to roll, and we maintain strict dye‑lot continuity for reorders. What you specify is exactly what arrives.

Full Opacity Range

MD2317 offers one of the broadest performance ranges in our collection:

  • Light‑Filtering (5% openness) — soft daylight with daytime privacy

  • Room‑Darkening (80% light block) — reduced glare and enhanced privacy

  • Blackout (100% light block) — triple‑layer laminated construction

  • Blackout Lined — light‑filtering face fabric paired with a separate blackout liner for a lighter, more flexible hand

All versions share the same smooth twill appearance on the room‑facing side.

Budget‑Friendly Without Compromise

MD2317 is our most cost‑efficient roman shade fabric family. By streamlining the weave and focusing on high‑demand neutrals, we reduce production costs without sacrificing performance. The fabric still meets our standards for tensile strength, dimensional stability, and colorfastness—and it carries the same 10‑year warranty as our premium textiles.

Ideal for Commercial Applications

The clean, professional look of MD2317 makes it a favorite for offices, healthcare environments, hospitality spaces, and multi‑unit projects. It is available with Class A fire‑retardant treatment and meets all major commercial building codes. Volume pricing is available for large orders.

Easy to Clean

The smooth twill surface leaves no crevices for dust to settle. Routine care is simple: vacuum with a brush attachment or dust lightly. Spills remain on the surface and can be blotted away thanks to the built‑in stain‑release finish. For blackout constructions, avoid saturating the fabric—spot cleaning is recommended.
