The warmest of the pairs, and the best fire listing among them
SheerWeave 7400 is a blackout at 45% polyester and 55% acrylic foamed backing, 12.8 oz per square yard and 0.028 inches thick, publishing Tv 0 and solar reflectance of 64%. Style 7450R is the light-filtering twin, 100% polyester with an acrylic coating at 6.6 oz and 0.025 inches, with an acoustic value of NRC 0.25. Both are woven 118 inches wide and neither is recommended for railroading. Certifications on both are GREENGUARD Gold, RoHS, REACH and the ANSI/WCMA A100.1 lead-content standard, with no Microban additive.
The eight colours are warmer than the rest of the 7000 series: Cotton, Parchment, Sesame, Pebble, Seagrass, Shale, Spice and Flint, running across the blackout and the light-filtering fabric under the same Phifer codes. Fire is where this pair separates itself. Style 7400 carries California Title 19, NFPA 701 TM#1 and TM#2, CAN/ULC-S 109 and CAN/CGSB 2-4.162-M80, the fullest listing of any of the R pairs, and 7450R lists California Technical Bulletin 117 with Class A ratings under NFPA 101 and IBC Section 803.1.1.

Tv = visible light transmitted, Ts = solar energy transmitted, Rs = solar energy reflected, As = solar energy absorbed, in percent, as published by Phifer for the fabric on its own. SHGC single = solar heat gain coefficient of the fabric behind single 1/4 in clear glass (1/8 in where that is what Phifer publishes), SHGC insul. = behind 1 in insulating glass with a high-performance coating (1/2 in clear where published). Exterior SunTex and SunScreen figures are for the fabric installed outside the glass at a 30 degree profile angle. We bring the sample books to the consultation.
Where SheerWeave 7400/7450R works here
A warm-toned bedroom or guest suite where the neutral greys of the other cards would look cold: Sesame and Parchment sit with wood and rattan the way most Palm Beach and Coconut Grove bedrooms are furnished. It is also the pair we suggest when a residential project has a fire requirement attached to it, because 7400 is the only R-pair blackout with a full NFPA 701 listing.
SheerWeave 7400/7450R: frequently asked
Which is the better blackout for a commercial job, 7400 or 7500?
Both carry NFPA 701. Style 7500 is the wider colour card at twelve, with a broader international listing set; 7400 adds NFPA 701 TM#2 and the warmer eight-colour palette, and comes with a matched light-filtering twin. We would put 7500 into a hotel and 7400 into a residence with a code requirement.
Do the two styles match exactly?
They share the eight colour names and Phifer's colour codes, so a dual roller runs the same colour by day and by night. The constructions differ, so the surfaces are not identical, but the colour is.
How wide can a Phifer SheerWeave 7400/7450R shade be?
Phifer publishes standard roll widths of 118" (300 cm) for SheerWeave 7400/7450R, so a single shade can run to about 118 inches wide before a seam or a second shade is needed. Wider openings are covered with two shades on one headrail programmed to move together, or with a seam placed where the mullion hides it. We confirm the exact limit for the chosen system when we measure.
Which shades can be made in SheerWeave 7400/7450R?
SheerWeave 7400/7450R is made up as roller shades and panel tracks. We source it directly from Phifer, so the same weave goes on Lutron, Somfy, Crestron or Vertilux motors or a manual chain, cut and finished in our Fort Lauderdale workroom and installed by our own team from Miami to Palm Beach.
Is SheerWeave 7400/7450R PVC-free?
Phifer's published composition for SheerWeave 7400/7450R is 45% Polyester / 55% Acrylic Foamed Backing; 100% Polyester with Acrylic Coating: no vinyl and no PVC in the yarn or the coating, with GREENGUARD Gold, RoHS, REACH, ANSI/WCMA A100.1 lead content listed.
Can I see SheerWeave 7400/7450R samples before ordering?
Yes. We keep the Phifer sample books in the Fort Lauderdale workroom (4539 Powerline Rd, by appointment) and the Miami Beach showroom (500 South Pointe Dr #150), and we bring the colours you shortlist to the in-home consultation so you can hold them against your glass in your own light.
