Best bedroom blinds

To create a serene and peaceful environment, you’ll want to recommend the following.  

• VELUX Blackout roller blind
  Blocks out daylight to create full darkness during the day or night. In summer, they’re great at blocking out sunlight and regulating the temperature as well as protecting furnishings from fading under UV rays.
• Available in timeless and contemporary colours and patterns. There’s also the VELUX Children’s Collection which features vibrant, fun designs specially crafted for children’s rooms.

• VELUX Duo blind
  This style is a combination of the pleated and blackout blind. It’s great for bedrooms with dressing areas and makeup tables as the blinds can be adjusted section by section to soften the light, or pulled down entirely to block the light for sleeping.

Best living room blinds

Living rooms serve multiple purposes, which means the room requires a versatile roof window blind that provides adjustable light levels to create the desired ambiance regardless of the time of day.

• VELUX Translucent roller blind
  This style offers light dimming and privacy, perfect for busy living rooms. When the afternoon sun causes glare on the TV or disrupts reading time, the blinds can be adjusted in seconds.
  
  This style is available in a range of on-trend and classic colours from our Colour by You Collection, which allows the customer to modify any shade to complement their decor.
  
  
• VELUX Translucent pleated blind
  This sleek option has a flying blind design, enabling homeowners to position it anywhere on the window. Its flexibility allows for precise adjustments to control light with remarkable accuracy.
  
  
• VELUX Blackout energy pleated blind
  For customers looking to enhance the cosiness of a living room, the blackout energy pleated blind is an excellent choice. Crafted from double-pleated polyester blackout fabric with an integrated aluminium honeycomb structure, it improves insulation by up to 25%!
  
  

The best kitchen and bathroom blinds

These rooms of the home are among the busiest and require a durable roof window blind like the VELUX Venetian blind. Made from water-resistant aluminium, it handles steam from cooking or bathing and is designed for easy cleaning.

• VELUX Venetian blind
  Unlike traditional Venetian blinds, these haven’t any cords; the slats can be manually tilted, or they can be adjusted with the control bar. This makes it easy for homeowners to create their desired atmosphere, whether they’re wanting bright light in the kitchen, or soft, serene lighting in the bathroom. For hard-to-reach areas, extension rod accessories are available.

Accessories and operations

• VELUX Insect screen
  For customers that love the fresh air but can’t stand bugs, the insect screen offers the perfect solution. The insect screen is made from durable, transparent and 100% insect-proof material and can be tucked away easily when it’s not being used. It’s easy to install and can be integrated with all VELUX interior blinds and exterior heat protection products.
  
  
• Operation type
  Homeowners can choose between manual control, electric operation or solar-powered remote control options.

• VELUX ACTIVE upgrade for solar-powered/electric blinds
  When homeowners choose a solar-powered or electric blind, they can add VELUX ACTIVE – a smart home system that links all electric products together.
