PLEASE NOTE: The term 'blockout' refers to the fact that the fabric is designed not to allow light to pass through it. Light ingress and bleed will occur through the gap between each slat and the perimeter of the vertical blind unit.
Colour & Finish
Colour: A soft grey base with layered tonal variation—combining pale silver, mid‑grey, and subtle warm beige tones within the pattern.
Tone/Depth: Light to mid‑tone with decorative depth from the pattern; appears brighter and more dimensional than solid PVC colours while still maintaining a dense, opaque body.
Finish: Matte with a detailed printed or embossed decorative pattern. The flowing abstract motif sits across a lightly textured base, creating a refined, fabric‑like visual despite the PVC construction.
Visual impact: Offers a rare combination of decorative elegance and functional performance. The patterned grey softens the appearance of blackout blinds, giving a more residential, styled look compared to standard plain PVC.
Material Look & Construction
Fabric feel (appearance): A structured PVC slat with a printed or embossed decorative pattern over a fine micro‑textured surface. The material retains a consistent, uniform look while visually mimicking a patterned textile.
Opacity: Blackout – fully blocks incoming light through the fabric, delivering maximum privacy and complete room darkening.
Performance features:
- Waterproof: Suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, and high‑moisture environments
- Mould resistant: Ideal for condensation‑prone or humid spaces
- Flame retardant: Meets safety requirements for residential and commercial use
- Wipe‑clean: Hygienic, easy‑maintenance surface
Practical note: Combines the practicality of PVC with the visual softness of a patterned fabric. The design helps disguise marks and wear more effectively than plain finishes, making it ideal for both decorative and functional environments.
