Standard Blind Types
Below is a selection of the different types of blind available from Luxaflex® blinds – they have an amazing array of styles to choose from and we recommend you visit the store to see our display and discuss what might be best for your room.
VENETIAN BLINDS
Venetian Blinds offer simplicity and great light control. The Luxaflex® collection has a stunning range of fashionable colours, rich textures and exclusive designs to transform any window. Choose from Wood or Metal. Quality is the hallmark of Luxaflex® Venetian Blinds and they won’t lose their shape. There are 5 slat widths available.
The Top Down / Bottom Up Venetian Blind offers the most versatile operating system for light control and privacy. Simply operate your blind from the top or bottom or a combination of both with convenient button operation for tilting the slats to adjust levels. MegaView® Venetian Blinds offer you extra view and privacy control. These blinds close like a normal Venetian blind, but when you open it your view is doubled.
ROLLER BLINDS
Luxaflex® adds a new dimension to the traditional roller blind. The collection includes striking fabrics in modern stylish colours, textures and transparencies. The possibilities are almost endless, especially if you select accessories to give your roller blind a personal touch – including rings, decorative bottom rails and decorative finials for poles.
XL and XXL – ideal for larger windows. With extra wide fabrics greater widths are spanned effortlessly, and thanks to sophisticated systems, these blinds are easy to operate and to install.
Nano Roller Blinds
Nano roller blinds are fixed directly onto the glass without drilling or any screws required, ideal for tilt and turn windows.
VERTICAL BLINDS
Vertical Blinds offer a wide range of opportunities to control the amount of light and privacy in your home. With their sleek style they are ideal for contemporary interiors, larger windows, sliding doors and even shaped windows. The Luxaflex® collection offers an endless range of colours, patterns, fabrics and rich textured transparencies. Complete your blind with aluminium and PVC slats, which are also available in perforated versions. Depending on the material and your personal preference, you can choose slat widths from 50mm up to 250mm.
With only one control chain you can tilt and slide the vanes. This simple-to-use control is now offered as standard on Luxaflex® Vertical Blinds.
DUETTE® SHADES
Duette® Shades insulate in the summer and winter. The still air layer in the cell works like an insulating blanket. The three still air layers of the cell-in-cell Architella® construction offer even better insulation. Most of the heat lost in houses is through the windows. Duette® Shades offer a unique combination: energy-saving window coverings that add atmosphere to the home at the same time. They also tangibly improve the acoustics in a room.
Duette® Shades are available in a wide assortment of beautiful fabrics and colours in three transparencies. They give a beautiful pleat pattern to windows and there are three pleat widths available, each best suitable for a specific window size.
PLISSE® SHADES
Plissé Shades are available in a wide assortment of beautiful fabrics, rich structures and new colours in four transparencies. They give beautiful pleat patterns to windows of various shapes. There are two pleat widths available, each best suitable for a specific window size.
The Luxaflex® Plissé Shades collection offers two different coatings, each with its own specific characteristics:
- Topar® Plus is a coating that reflects warmth and sunlight, but which has no effect on the colour of the Plissé Shade.
- DustBlock® is a dirt-repellent treatment, making these fabrics suitable for rooms such as kitchens.
SILHOUETTE® SHADES
The ingenious construction of Silhouette® Shades creates soft fabric vanes that seem to float between sheer facings. They allow you to subtly filter the incoming light in your home and determine the degree of privacy. The unique fabric construction prevents a disturbing watered effect so you can enjoy optimal views.
A variety of structures are available, including a screen-like fabric with 25% better heat prevention, fabrics with a silk-look and dim-out fabrics. With three vane widths, Silhouette® Shades are suitable for every size of window. Another advantage is that the harsh effects of ultraviolet light are greatly reduced by Silhouette® Shades. With the vanes open, a UV protection of up to 88% is achieved and protection increases up to 99% when closed.
TWIST® SHADES
Two sliding layers of fabric with sheer horizontal strips. This is the hallmark of Luxaflex® Twist Shades, a contemporary addition to existing styles of window covering. It’s an amazingly simple and effective method for choosing just the right amount of light and privacy.
You can opt for refined voiles or a silky fabric with a lovely luxurious feel in the open strips. Alternatively you can choose fabrics with special structures and striped patterns, or the Symphony with strips in three different shades. The collection also includes fire-resistant fabrics. We can help you make the right choice with the extensive collection book which contains examples of the many fabrics available.
