Classic Blackout Iron 89mm Vertical Blind Slats

PLEASE NOTE: The term 'blackout' 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. Also this Classic Blackout vane has a colour co-ordinated blackout backing to match the fabric front.

Colour & Finish

• Colour: A deep, saturated black—closer to true jet black than charcoal.
• Tone/Depth: Consistent, bold depth. The slats absorb light rather than reflect it, giving the window a clean, architecturally defined outline.
• Finish: Matte to very low sheen, with a smooth, finely grained surface. No visible patterning; the overall effect is sleek, modern, and understated.
• Visual impact: The solid matte black creates crisp contrast against light skirting, walls, and trims. When the slats are angled or stacked, they produce neat vertical shadows that enhance the window’s geometry.

Material Look & Construction

• Fabric feel (appearance): The material is a tightly woven synthetic (polyester‑based) with a smooth and uniform face. Subtle texture gives it a contemporary, refined look without appearing shiny.
• Opacity: Blackout—designed to significantly reduce incoming light, making it suitable for privacy, glare reduction, and light‑controlled rooms.
• Practical note: Matte synthetics like these tend to be low‑maintenance: they resist dust cling, wipe clean easily, and keep their shape well. The bottom chain shown helps keep the slats evenly aligned, especially useful in high‑traffic or breezy rooms.
