Alendel Thrive Fabric
28 colourways, performance cloth, 54 in wide. Every swatch and every Alendel specification, from the workroom that sews it in Fort Lauderdale and installs it from Miami to Palm Beach.
28 colourways of performance cloth from Bamboo to Bluebird, 54 in wide
Thrive is one of the Alendel performance cloths we make up here, with 28 colourways on the card, in 55% recycled polyester and 45% organic cotton, at 54 in wide. The card is Bamboo, Bayou, Bluebird, Brownie, Burlap, Cement, Cloud, Coyote plus 20 more; Alendel files them under beige, blue, brown, grey, green and yellow. 27 of the 28 flagged in stock by Alendel. It sits in Alendel's Thrive & Prosper Book.
The 54 in width runs up the roll, so panels are made of joined widths with the seams hidden in the pleats, and a Roman shade under about 50 inches finished is cut from a single width. A cotton ground reads matte and takes colour well, and it is lined for the sun: the lining carries the UV and the face keeps its colour. It weighs 1.05 lb per yard by Alendel's listing, and a cloth of that weight is hung on a track or rod sized for it. Care is WA-P (washable or dry clean). It carries CAL 117, NFPA 260 and UFAC Class 1, the upholstery flammability listings; and FMVSS 302, the automotive interior test. Every colourway is listed as Oeko-Tex. Finish: Soil & Stain Repellent. Country of origin, as Alendel lists it: India.
What Thrive does at the window, and what it does not
Best use
We make Thrive up as draperies and as Roman shades, and the two are ordered from one bolt so the repeat and the dye lot match from room to room. A plain like this takes a relaxed or hobbled fold as well as a flat one.
Light and privacy
Closed, Thrive gives full privacy. What the room looks like closed comes from the lining we sew in: light-filtering for living areas, interlining for body and acoustics, blackout for bedrooms. The lining also carries the UV load off the face cloth.
Cloth and care
55% recycled polyester and 45% organic cotton; 1.05 lb per yard; care WA-P (washable or dry clean); 100,000 rubs abrasion. Cotton and linen are lined here for the sun, and they move a little with the humidity, which is part of the look. Listed as Oeko-Tex. Finish: Soil & Stain Repellent.
Limitations
At 54 in a wide panel is made of joined widths; the seams sit inside the pleats. Not for a wet bathroom or a shower window. The weight needs a track or rod sized for it; a light decorative rod will bow. 1 of the 28 colour is not flagged in stock, so that colour is a mill order with a longer lead time; we confirm stock before anything is cut.

Width, content, repeat, care code, fire listings and weight per yard are Alendel's own listing for each colourway, captured from its trade catalogue; the stock flag is Alendel's public availability filter on the day we read it and is confirmed against the order before anything is cut. We bring the Alendel books to the consultation.
Where Thrive works here
On a Coral Gables or Boca Raton house Thrive runs as pinch pleat or Euro pleat panels on decorative rods in the main rooms and as flat-fold Roman shades over the kitchen sink and in the powder room, matched bolt for bolt. Every panel and shade comes out of the same Fort Lauderdale workroom, and our own team installs from Miami to Palm Beach.
For the same use, compare Thrive with Prosper (performance cloth, 55 in, 30 colourways), Esquire (performance cloth, 54 in, 52 colourways) and Sharp (performance cloth, 55 in, 46 colourways); the table on each page lists the width, content, care code, fire listings and weight side by side.
Thrive: frequently asked
How many colours does Alendel Thrive come in?
28 colourways by Alendel's listing, 27 of the 28 flagged in stock by Alendel. Every one is on this page with its swatch, colour code and FB item number, and we bring the shortlist to the consultation so the colour is judged in your own light.
Is Thrive washable?
Alendel gives it care code WA-P (washable or dry clean), so yes: it can be washed, and dry cleaned as well where the code allows it. The code is in the specification table below for every colourway.
Is Thrive in stock?
27 of the 28 flagged in stock by alendel. The flag is Alendel's public stock filter on the day we read it; colours not flagged are ordered from the mill and take longer. We confirm stock and dye lot with Alendel before anything is cut.
What does Thrive cost made up as Roman shades and draperies?
It is quoted from the yardage: the width and height of the window, the fullness, the repeat if there is one, the lining and the track or rod. The pricing page has real numbers for sheers, motorized tracks and blackout draperies, and a quote for Thrive follows from a measure. Ask for a price with the button above and we come back with a figure, not a range.
