Types of Roller Blind Fabrics

Roller blind fabrics come in a variety of materials and colors, allowing them to be customized according to both functional needs and aesthetic preferences. They can be made from transparent fabrics that let in daylight while reducing glare or from blackout materials that effectively block light for total screening. The choice of material also affects the roller blind's thermal insulation properties and its ability to protect against UV radiation, helping to prevent furniture and interior decor from fading. By carefully selecting the right roller blind fabric, one can create a harmonious balance between light control, privacy, and design in the home.

100% Blackout Fabrics (BO)

These fabrics are completely lightproof and do not let any light through, regardless of color choice. For maximum blackout, cassette roller blinds with side rails are recommended to minimize light leakage.

Light-Blocking Fabrics (DO)

DO stands for "Dim-out" and refers to fabrics that significantly reduce light more than transparent fabrics but do not provide complete blackout. Darker colors offer greater screening than lighter ones.

Light-Diffusing Fabrics (TL)

"TL" is an abbreviation for "Translucent" and refers to fabrics that partially diffuse light, allowing "soft light" to enter the room. The fabric prevents visibility from the outside both during the day and in the evening while also protecting against UV radiation and heat during midday. This means the room remains relatively bright during the day while direct sunlight is filtered. Choose these fabrics for mild light diffusion and privacy.

Screen Fabrics (SCR)

Screen fabrics are perforated with small holes, allowing light to pass through while preventing visibility during the day. They enable a view through the window during daylight hours. Privacy protection in the evening depends on the fabric’s density and indoor lighting.

Vision Fabrics (VS)

Vision fabrics resemble thin curtains, with or without patterns. They provide daytime privacy while allowing soft light to enter. In the evening, privacy protection may decrease depending on the fabric’s design and indoor lighting.

Flame-Resistant Fabrics (FR)

FR stands for "Flame Resistant." These fabrics are flame-retardant, meaning they do not catch fire upon contact with flames but instead melt. This is an essential feature in environments with open flames or where fire safety is required, such as public spaces.

Nature-Design Roller Blinds

Nature-design roller blinds are inspired by natural materials such as bamboo, linen, or wood. They create a warm and harmonious feel in the home while gently filtering light. These blinds are perfect for creating a natural and relaxing atmosphere.

Heat-Stop Roller Blinds

Heat-stop roller blinds are specially designed to reflect the sun’s heat rays and reduce overheating in the room. They are an excellent choice for keeping the room cool during summer and contributing to energy savings by reducing the need for air conditioning.
