An animal house curtain comprising a metallized composite sheet can be made from a sheet layer having two outer surfaces, the sheet layer comprising at least one of a nonwoven fabric, woven fabric, nonwoven fabric-film laminate, woven fabric-film laminate, film and composites thereof, and at least one coating on at least one outer surface of the sheet layer, said coating comprising a metal coating layer having a thickness between about 15 nanometers and about 200 nanometers adjacent the outer surface of the sheet layer and wherein the emissivity of the composite sheet is less than about 0.50. Optionally, an organic coating layer of a composition containing a material selected from the group consisting of compounds, polymers, oligomers and combinations thereof, having a thickness between about 0.2 micrometer and about 2.5 micrometers can be deposited on the metal layer.
