01 / Choosing blinds
Bamboo – lightness and texture.
Manufacturers highlight bamboo slats for their low weight and slim profile. Their surface complements natural interior materials. When planning installation, consider the raised blind's stack height, which depends on the slats, system and overall blind height.
02 / Choosing blinds
Basswood and abachi – different wood characters.
Basswood has a subtle grain and suits those looking for a calmer, more uniform appearance.
Abachi is associated with a more pronounced texture. Compare a sample with your flooring or wooden furniture. With both woods, paint and finishing change the final look.
03 / Choosing blinds
Paulownia – another wood option.
Paulownia is also used in blind collections. Assess its colours, finishes and technical properties using specific samples. The wood species alone does not describe every product capability.
04 / Choosing blinds
PVC and faux wood.
Plastic slats can be plain or imitate wood. Choose versions for humid rooms according to their intended use. “Faux wood” describes a wood-like appearance, but not all such products have the same composition.
Key points: a material name does not replace a discussion about installation, operation and care.
