TOP Ripasso Blackout 25 mm Fabric
10 colourways, blackout, 300 cm roll. TOP Window Covering fabric, made into honeycomb shades in our Fort Lauderdale workroom and installed from Miami to Palm Beach.
Blackout honeycomb in a 25 mm cell, with Red, Yellow and Taupe added to the gray scale
Ripasso Blackout 25 mm is TOP Window Covering's blackout honeycomb in a single 25 mm cell, 0.16 mm thick and 205 g/m2. Ten colourways: White, Ivory, Light Gray, Mid Gray, Dark Gray and Black, plus Taupe, Red and Yellow, and one swatch that TOP shows with an item number but no colour name. It is for bedrooms, nurseries and media rooms, and for a child's room that wants Red or Yellow and a dark night.
TOP publishes no datasheet for this collection: no composition, no optical figures, no fire listing and no humid-room rating to quote. What we can describe is its class, a blackout, and what that means on a window: no light through the cloth, a line of it at the edges of an inside-mounted shade. The light-filtering Ripasso 25 mm is white on its glass side and fully documented; this blackout's outside face is not documented, so check it on the sample.
What Ripasso Blackout 25 mm does on your glass, and what it does not
Best use
Bedrooms and media rooms in a house that runs Ripasso Translucent 25 mm by day, and a child's room in Red or Yellow. White or Ivory on sunny glass, the grays or Black where the shade should recede. In a nursery, build it cordless. Where a specification needs numbers, choose a blackout with a datasheet instead.
Privacy
As a blackout it passes no image of the room by day or after dark, in any colour, though TOP publishes no figures to confirm it, so we treat that as the class rather than a measurement. The edges are the weak point: a thin line of light at each side of an inside-mounted shade, which an outside mount with an overlap mostly closes.
Glare control
No daylight comes through a blackout cloth, so a television has the room to itself and a desk works by lamp. That is the right trade in a media room and the wrong one in a study, where the light-filtering Ripasso Translucent 25 mm holds glare down and keeps the daylight.
Limitations
No datasheet means no figures, no composition, no fire listing and no humid-room rating to show anyone, so keep it to private bedrooms and media rooms. One swatch has no colour name, so it is ordered by its item number from a sample. Where a board, a hotel or an architect needs published data, take Barolo Blackout 25 mm.

Where Ripasso Blackout 25 mm works here
In South Florida we would use it where a house already runs Ripasso Translucent 25 mm and the bedrooms need to go dark in a matching colour, or in a child's room in Red or Yellow. For a condo that has to show its board a datasheet, choose Barolo Blackout 25 mm in the same cell, which has one.
Ripasso Translucent 25 mm is the light-filtering twin, with nine of the same colour names, a white glass side and a full datasheet.
Ripasso Blackout 25 mm: frequently asked
Why is there so little data?
TOP publishes no datasheet for Ripasso Blackout 25 mm, only the collection page with its thickness, weight, cell size and swatches. We do not fill the gap with figures from other fabrics. If your project needs published numbers, Barolo Blackout 25 mm, in the same cell size, publishes zero transmission and full reflectance figures for every colour.
How wide can a honeycomb shade in TOP Ripasso Blackout 25 mm be?
TOP makes Ripasso Blackout 25 mm in a 300 cm (118.1 in) roll. The roll width is the widest single piece we can cut, so one honeycomb shade can be made a little under 118.1 inches wide. A seam in a blackout shows as a line of light, so wider openings get two shades side by side, set to move together. We confirm the exact limit for the operating system when we measure.
Which shades can be made in Ripasso Blackout 25 mm?
Ripasso Blackout 25 mm is a honeycomb shade fabric: the cells come formed in the fabric. We buy it from TOP Window Covering, cut it to the opening in our Fort Lauderdale workroom and build the shade cordless or motorized (Somfy Cord Lift WireFree in the headrail), and our own team installs it from Miami to Palm Beach.
Can I see Ripasso Blackout 25 mm samples before ordering?
Yes. Shortlist the colours here and we bring TOP samples of them to the in-home consultation, so you can hold them against your own glass in your own light. Our Fort Lauderdale workroom (4539 Powerline Rd, by appointment) and Miami Beach showroom (500 South Pointe Dr #150) have motorized shades running if you want to see one move.
