A wide choice of Blinds, Shutters, Louvres and Awnings

Cellular Blinds are made of two or more layers of pleated fabric that are folded to create “cells” and can be raised and lowered.  The cells of these blinds trap air and heat that can enhance insulation at the window.  Available in single-, double- and cell-within-a-cell formats, cellular blinds fold up like an accordion to control daylight, filter glare, and offer privacy.

While cellular blinds deliver all the benefits of conventional window coverings, they offer better thermal performance. Cellular blinds provide extra insulation by trapping air within each cell, as well as between the blind and the window, which is particularly beneficial in colder climates.

The automation of cellular blinds may enhance their energy saving potential and increase occupancy comfort.

Internal Roller blinds, also known as holland blinds, are fitted on the inside of a window and are available in a wide variety of fabrics and weaves.   Roller blinds can also be fitted on the outside of a window, and these are commonly known as straight-drop awnings.  They effectively reduce solar heat gain, darken rooms, offer privacy, and enhance visual comfort by filtering sunlight to reduce eye strain caused by reflections and glare. Automated roller blinds and straight drop awnings have been shown to block solar heat gain effectively and reduce HVAC cooling loads.
