Roman Shades / Fabritec Designs
A well-built shade
sells the next one.
Since 1973, Fabritec has been fabricating Roman shades entirely by hand for the trade—one of the first workrooms in America to do so.

How We Make It
By hand. Every time.
There is no automation in our Roman shade fabrication process. Every shade is constructed by skilled hands on purpose-built tables designed by our team specifically for this work.
Built from the bottom up
Every Roman shade is constructed from the bottom up—a method that ensures precision at every fold, seam, and lift point. The process is detailed, intentional, and documented.
Purpose-built fabrication tables
Our workroom uses custom-designed fabrication tables developed in-house over decades. They exist for one reason: to make a better Roman shade.
Every shade is tested before it ships
Before any shade leaves our facility, it is fully tested—mechanically and visually. What arrives is what we would stake our reputation on.
Precise headrail wrapping
Our headrail finishing is a signature detail—clean, tight, and consistent. It's the kind of thing experienced designers notice, and clients remember.

The Trade Partnership
We remove the friction, so you can specify with confidence.
We've been doing this since 1973. We know what your projects demand, and we've built our process around delivering exactly that.
C.O.M. expertise for high-stakes fabrics
We routinely fabricate with designer-sourced fabrics at any price point. Our workroom understands what is at stake and handles your client's material accordingly.
Order records and reorder matching
We document how every shade was made—the specs, the details, the fabric. Reorders and add-ons for ongoing projects are handled with precision.
Evolving with the market
We listen to our trade partners. As trends shift and client expectations evolve, our style offering and fabrication capabilities evolve with them.
Motorization, done right
Many workrooms leave motorization to someone else. We don't. We program the motors, set the upper limits, configure the channels, and handle the communication that makes an intelligent motor actually perform. It's a level of service most companies don't offer—and your clients will notice the difference.
What Our Trade Partners Say
They have the best Roman shade styles and craftsmanship in the country. My clients always request Fabritec by name.
I have been specifying Fabritec Roman shades for 30 years. I would never go anywhere else.
When I started working with Fabritec I was blown away by their C.O.M. process. I have used $1,000-a-yard fabric on their Roman shades—and my client still raves about how well they were constructed.
One of the first workrooms in America to fabricate Roman shades. Still the best.
