Broad 38mm pleat faces give this light-filtering nonwoven honeycomb blind fabric a more pronounced cellular pattern than the smaller sizes in the collection. The larger areas between folds display the selected fabric color, while daylight passing through illuminates the nonwoven surface. This makes the lowered shade a visible part of a living-room, reception-area or open-plan interior scheme. Its plain face allows the repeated geometry to provide the decorative detail. HORNET offers sample-book colors and custom development for brands building a broad-pleat cellular shade fabric collection.
Broad 38mm Pleat Faces
The 38mm profile creates a more pronounced cellular pattern than the smaller sizes in the collection. Broad faces give the fabric color a larger visual area between folds and make the geometry more noticeable across the window.
Daylight over a Large-Scale Pattern
This light-filtering cellular shade fabric lets diffused daylight pass through the material. The broad surface and fold edges appear together in transmitted light, creating a layered fabric effect when the shade is lowered.
Colors for Modern Interior Schemes
The plain nonwoven surface can form a neutral background or a visible color feature. Our sample-book colors and custom development let brands connect the broad pleat profile with their residential or contract palettes.

Cellular Form as a Decorative Element
The broad 38mm pattern adds an evident folded form to plain fabric. It suits collections where the window treatment should have its own geometric detail rather than a fine background texture.
A Bright-Daytime Fabric Option
Light transmission remains part of the product’s function even with the shade extended. This supports living and reception spaces where a naturally lit atmosphere is part of the design.
Color across Broad Pleat Faces
The large visible faces bring fabric color into focus. Brands can develop a palette that makes the shade either a coordinated background or a feature within the room.
Open Living and Dining Spaces
The broad cellular pattern can complement contemporary living and dining schemes. The light-filtering surface contributes daylight while the pleats add a visible texture to the window.
Reception and Lounge Windows
The 38mm appearance can be used in schemes that favor a more noticeable fabric fold. It fits daytime lounges and reception settings where the shade forms part of the interior palette.
Wide-Window Design Concepts
Broad folds offer a design direction for expansive glazing concepts. This is a visual application of the 38mm profile, rather than a statement of maximum finished blind width.
How does 38mm differ from 25mm?
The larger cell size gives the folds a broader visual scale. Material process and light-control construction are separate characteristics, so size alone does not identify the full fabric specification.
Does 38mm allow a wider finished blind?
Cell size describes the cellular profile. Finished width depends on the chosen fabric and operating system, rather than the cell-size name alone.
Does light filtering provide complete evening privacy?
Light filtering allows light through the material. Evening visibility depends on the fabric and indoor/outdoor lighting, so complete nighttime privacy is not a general promise of this category.
Can colors be developed for a project collection?
Yes. We support custom color development from references and physical samples for wholesale and OEM/ODM projects, in addition to our sample-book selection.
