Vertical Blinds meet most requirements of the office and commercial environment. They are practical, versatile and have visual appeal. They offer the specifier an aesthetically pleasing solution to the problem of solar glare and heat gain. Vertical blinds provide total control of light through windows, with the vanes rotating to any angle as well as drawing to the sides by use of simple manual controls. Vertical blinds enhance, or create a complete new image for your Project - both inside and out.

Principal applications are in offices, public buildings such as banks, airports, hospitals, sports and entertainment centres, retail stores and other establishments where it is necessary to control solar glare and heat gain. Vertical blinds are also useful as room dividers or screens, protecting certain areas from full view. They are used on internal glazed partitioning where they add a highly sophisticated element to the interior, as well as their functional properties.

Vanes are 127mm or 89mm wide (many fabrics are also available as roller blinds giving a further opportunity for total co-ordination). The vanes are suspended from the track and overlap by not less than 11mm when the blinds are closed, providing complete privacy. They can be traversed with a left, right, split or centre bunch with controls at either left or right of blind, as required. The vanes are specially weighted at their base and are securely interconnected by a twin chain system.

The growing popularity of vertical blinds has led to a significant development in the range of high performance fabrics available. Woven from acrylic and polyester yarns, the fabrics conform to BS5867, Part 1:1980 for light fastness 5-6 when tested in accordance with BS1006 1978. In addition, fibreglass and PVC materials, also available in a variety of textures and colours, are flame retardant and conform to BS5867, Part 2: Type B 1980 as well as meeting the DOE/PSA Fire Retardant Specification No.17.
