Blending timeless design with sustainability to support healthier, greener living spaces

Washington, United States, 16th Apr 2025 – As Earth Month draws attention to the urgent need for climate action and sustainable living, TWOPAGES – a provider of customizable window treatments, is reaffirming its commitment to environmentally responsible living by encouraging homeowners to embrace sustainability through conscious home design.

At the heart of TWOPAGES’ sustainable approach is its made-to-order production model. Every curtain and shade is custom-crafted to the customer’s specifications, which helps reduce excess inventory and fabric waste. By only producing what’s needed, TWOPAGES avoids the common pitfalls of overproduction that often result in surplus and landfill contributions.

TWOPAGES sticks to natural, renewable fibers like flax, linen, cotton, jute, ramie, and bamboo. They’re plant-based, biodegradable, and way easier on the environment than synthetics. Plus, they’re breathable, durable, and hypoallergenic so they feel good. Unlike synthetic fabrics, which can trap heat and shed microplastics, these natural options support both environmental and indoor wellness.

To honor the theme of Environmental Protection Month, TWOPAGES is spotlighting a few standout products that reflect the brand’s eco-conscious values:

Patti Premium Belgian Linen Flax Curtain 

Crafted from 100% Belgian flax linen, Patti Belgian Linen Curtain balances durability with a soft, breathable touch. Its natural antimicrobial and moisture-regulating properties make it ideal for humid environments. Hypoallergenic and dust-resistant, it’s a long-lasting, eco-friendly choice with customizable light and thermal control.

A symbol of quiet strength, the Patti curtain pairs functional resilience with understated elegance, an embodiment of strong yet refined aesthetics.
