Blinds & Shutters - Issue 3/2023

Summer seems to have arrived and I imagine it’s peak season for companies that are involved in the awnings and solar shading markets. There seems to a lot of choices out there and it will be interesting to see how the home improvement market copes with the increasing of interest rates over the last few months. Lots of fixed mortgage rates are coming to an end, from historically low levels, so it way create another shock to consumers. So fingers crossed that it’s not as bad as some economists would have us believe and hopefully the rest of the summer will be long and hot!

VENETIAN<br />

Making the right<br />

impression<br />

Customers love<br />

venetian blinds, so<br />

why not look at<br />

faux wood<br />

examples?<br />

Customers love the functionality of a<br />

venetian blind; they can easily be tilted<br />

and opened for great light control and<br />

privacy. However, the metal finish of the slats does<br />

not suit every room style. For those looking for<br />

the same functionality but a softer look, faux<br />

wood venetian blinds can bridge this gap.<br />

Faux Wood venetian blinds offer the beautiful<br />

look of real wood, combined with all the benefits<br />

of PVC. They are ideal for damp conditions with<br />

their moisture resistant properties, and they are<br />

also very easy to just wipe clean. This makes them<br />

a stylish and practical solution for all interior styles.<br />

Suitable for any room in the home, their<br />

durable properties and ability to handle steam and<br />

humidity makes them particularly ideal for<br />

kitchens and bathrooms.<br />

The Timber Impressions range from Stevens<br />

offers a wide range of 13 faux wood colours for<br />

your customers, all supplied as Made-to-Measure<br />

blinds.<br />

All of the colours are available in 50mm slat<br />

widths, and the popular whites are available in<br />

38mm as well. The Faux Wood blinds can be<br />

made up to 2550mm wide, making them an easy<br />

choice for most domestic settings. Being Fire<br />

Retardant allows you to give your customers<br />

peace of mind.<br />

Customers can finish the blinds to suit their<br />

own tastes with the option of co-ordinating or<br />

contrasting tapes available.<br />

Available now, contact your ASM or the<br />

Customer Service Department to order your<br />

deck or made-to-measure blinds.<br />
