WHAT ARE BLACKOUT BLINDS?
Blackout blinds are specialised window stylings designed to increase the darkness of your room, providing optimal privacy and an ideal sleep environment.
These blinds are crafted from high-quality, opaque materials that prevent external light from penetrating through, making them ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, home cinemas or any space where you desire total darkness.
In addition to enhancing sleep quality by creating a dark environment, blackout blinds also contribute to energy efficiency by insulating against heat and cold.
Available across various styles such as roller blinds, Roman blinds, and integrated options with shutters, blackout blinds can be customised to complement any decor while delivering exceptional light control and comfort.
WHY CHOOSE BLACKOUT BLINDS?
Enhanced Sleep Quality
Blackout blinds create a completely dark environment, which is essential for promoting better sleep. By blocking out all external light sources, they help regulate your circadian rhythm, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep, leading to more restful and rejuvenating sleep.

​
Energy Efficiency
These blinds provide excellent insulation by keeping out heat during the summer and retaining warmth during the winter. This helps maintain a consistent indoor temperature, reducing the need for artificial heating and cooling, which can lead to significant energy savings and lower utility bills.
​
Privacy and Security
Blackout blinds offer maximum privacy by preventing any light from entering or escaping through the windows. This is particularly beneficial for rooms facing busy streets or neighboring properties, ensuring that your personal space remains private and secure from prying eyes.
​

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BLACKOUT BLINDS AND BLOCBLINDS?
Standard blackout blinds and Bloc blinds both block out light but differ in design and effectiveness.
Standard blackout blinds are made from high-quality, opaque fabrics in styles like roller blinds, Roman blinds, and curtains. They rely on the fabric's thickness to darken a room and can be installed within or outside the window frame. However, they may allow some light to seep through the edges, providing good but not complete light control and privacy.
​
In contrast, Bloc blinds use opaque fabrics with advanced materials for better light-blocking. Their design includes a unique frame or side channels that the fabric runs through, ensuring a snug fit against the window and minimizing light seepage.
Installed with a specialized cassette and side channels, Bloc blinds create a seal that blocks out nearly all light, offering superior light-blocking capabilities and making them ideal for achieving complete darkness.
BLACKOUT BLINDS ARE THE IDEAL SOLUTION FOR:
Bedrooms
Blackout blinds are ideal for bedrooms as they create a dark environment conducive to restful sleep, blocking out early morning sunlight and street lights.
​
Nurseries
