How to choose bamboo blind material?
The raw materials for the bamboo blinds can be divided into two groups:
80-90% light blocking: BC 28 and BC 30.
70-80% light blocking: BC 09, BC 12, BC 13 and C1C.
These data were measured with a light meter.
The eye adapts quickly to changing light conditions, so you may easily perceive them as brighter than indicated
value indicated.
Mechanism: 1G Roll-up traditional made to measure bamboo blinds with visible mechanicsBasic price product. Attention! Made to measure, these window bamboo shades can be safely manufactured up to a length of 180 cm. Of course, we can also make them in a larger, longer version at the customer's request and responsibility. But in this case we cannot offer guarantee! |
Mechanism: 2G Sun shade for patio, modern awning with hidden mechanismsThe material of the blind rolls from bottom to top. Basic price product to which the price of the 10-cm material covering the mechanism is added as an additional cost. We also recommend it for large extra wide or extra long bamboo blinds. |
Mechanism: 3G Bamboo blind with reinforced slats without skirtThe material of these porch blinds rolls from bottom to top. Basic price product. It is the same as the 2g, but it does not have a skirt, so the mechanics are visible. We also recommend it for large extra wide or extra long bamboo blinds. |
Mechanism: 2R Bamboo roman blindsor you may also know them as rafter blinds with hidden mechanics. The material of the bamboo blinds does not roll when pulled up, but folds. Since production is time-consuming, we charge a per-piece assembly fee in addition to the cost of the 10-cm material covering the mechanism. Attention: Bamboo Roman blinds are not recommended for lengths greater than 1.5 meters! |
Outdoor bamboo blinds
The bamboo blind materials are not surface treated. Material without surface treatment is unsuitable for outdoor use! We recommend two types of bamboo blinds for outdoor use:
Moderately weather-resistant outdoor blinds:
Both sides of the bamboo blinds are treated with wood oil (e.g. Sadolin Furniture Wood Oil). The treatment with wood oil will make the outdoor bamboo blind moderately water resistant. In the case of patio screens, balcony awnings, for example, in rainy and humid periods, if they are not exposed to direct water, they will be protected. However, it will not protect it if it is exposed to direct rainfall, in which case it will become mouldy. If the blind is exposed to water, always dry it when it is roll down. Only roll up the dry blinds! Bamboo blinds that are rolled up when wet will mould!
It is essential to note that bamboo blinds require maintenance, as the sun will "suck out" the wood oil. It should therefore be re-lubricated with wood oil every two years (preferably in autumn before the rainy season). In fact, it is best to have the outdoor shading blinds in the open space (bamboo partitions, screens, balcony shades) only when you really need them, in the summer. Be careful to apply the wood oil very thinly (sparingly), as the excess will not be absorbed by the bamboo blinds.
Weatherproof outdoor bamboo blinds:
The bamboo blind material is treated with a so-called thin lazur. This treatment makes the bamboo blind weatherproof and can be used, for example, to shade free-standing pergolas. It is not a problem if the blinds are exposed to water. But don't roll it up when it's wet because the water left in the roll will cause staining. Wait until the blind is dry and only then roll it up.
This outdoor bamboo blind also requires maintenance, every 2-3 years apply a thin coat of thin lazur to both sides. This can be done at home!
Important warning! A rolled down blind will be damaged by the wind. If the blinds are left unattended or the weather is windy or stormy, pull them up!
Useful advice! It is not recommended to varnish the outdoor bamboo blinds, as this will harden the weaving threads and they cannot be rolled up.
Bamboo blinds are made from a natural material. The outdoor bamboo blinds are treated with wood oil or thin lacquer. The treatment will temporarily brighten the colours and make the material look more sharp. This effect will wear off in about 1 month.
Slanted, oblique blinds
We undertake the production of not only right-angled blinds, but also slanted or curved blinds. Slanted blinds usually have a 20% production markup. Enter the two largest dimensions of the blind on the customer interface. This will show you an approximate price which is correct 95% of the time. To request a quote and place an order, please send exact dimensions and a drawing by email. We will confirm the exact price based on the drawing.
Important! We will send you a 10*10cm sample of all bamboo blind products completely free of charge and without obligation. Please take advantage of this opportunity. Bamboo is a natural material, color differences are possible between individual shipments, and the monitor may not fully reproduce the colors faithfully. It is safest if you are in control of the material. If you do not request a sample, we cannot accept a complaint due to a difference in color shade.
The typical production time for bamboo blinds is 5-10 working days. It depends on the number of orders. Added to this is the delivery time, which can be found in the confirmation of the order process.
These bamboo blinds are unique, they will be manufactured to the size you specify. Thus, we can only start production after the payment has been made! There is no cash on delivery option.

For those blinds with an angle of inclination greater than 30 degrees, no guaranteed that the automatic brake will work. In this case the blind can be raised/lowered, but it can only be fixed by tying the cord.
