Join us as we uncover the versatility and functionality of these popular window covering options, empowering you to transform your living spaces with ease.

Benefits of Blockout Roller Blinds

Blockout fabric will completely prevent UV rays from entering the home, keeping rooms cooler during the summer, and protecting furnishings from fading.

Blockout roller blinds are perfect for a bed­room, where a calming dark environment is needed for a good night’s sleep. A blockout fabric is a great choice for parents with in­fants or professionals who work night shifts and may need to sleep when the sun is still shining.

Hanging a blockout roller blind in a media room eliminates glare on the screen, allow­ing you to have the ultimate theatre experi­ence at any time of day in a room with win­dows.

Benefits of Light Filtering Roller Blinds

Light filtering blinds allow diffused light to enter the room, giving your space more of a glow. Use of a light filtering blind can bright­en the room and reduce the need for artifi­cial lighting, saving on electricity while cre­ating a perfect backdrop for residential and commercial spaces.

Light filtering fabrics come in varying degrees of view through. Light filtering maintains privacy while allowing some nat­ural light into the room, making it a good choice for those wishing to protect furniture, flooring, and other treasured items from harmful UV rays without using a blockout roller blind.

Benefits of Sunscreen Roller Blinds

Sunscreen roller blinds are designed to filter natural light while maintaining a view to the outside. These blinds are constructed using a semi-transparent fabric that effectively reduces glare and harmful UV rays while preserving your connection with the outdoors.

Sunscreen blinds offer a balance between privacy and light control, allowing soft diffused light to enter your space. As they do allow light in, they are perfect for daytime privacy, however they are not suitable for night-time privacy when your lights are on.

Dual Blinds

For ultimate flexibility and customisation, CurtainStudio offers the option of dual roller blinds, combining both sunscreen and blockout blinds on the same window. This innovative solution allows you to enjoy the benefits of both blinds and easily switch between them depending on your needs throughout the day.

This allows for daytime functionality and evening privacy. Utilising sunscreen blinds during the day to reduce glare and UV ray damage, and blockout blinds in the evening to offer complete privacy and light control. 

It’s evident that each option offers unique features and benefits to enhance your living environment. Whether you seek complete privacy, gentle diffusion of natural light, or protection from the sun's glare, there's a roller blind perfectly suited to your needs.
