Please note: working days exclude weekends, public holidays and factory closure periods such as Christmas 2024/25 factory closures are 19 December until 6 January. The good news is that by ordering over the holiday period we will be processing orders and you will secure your place in the production schedule upon the factory’s return.

IMPORTED

** see below – 35-50 working days for imported HONEYCOMB, FAUX WOOD, ALUMINIUM and PHOENIXWOOD blinds

** see below – 50-60 working days for imported SHUTTERS

** IMPORTED Chinese New Year.  The factory closes 25 January and re-opens on the 2 February (factory cut-off times are around 10-14 days prior to this, depending on the product type).  This unfortunately means that orders placed after the 13th of January will take longer to get here than usual as it takes the factory a while to catch up on manufacturing after the 1-week annual closure.  Generally, there is 3-4 weeks added to manufacturing times when they return to work.  Shipping is also disrupted as this holiday affects the entire country and everyone scrambles to get containers out in a hurry when everything is back up and running.  We expect shipping to take 1-3 weeks longer than usual in the 6 weeks following CNY.

Honeycomb 45mm Room Darkening (import)

Description

Honeycomb 45mm Room Darkening Imported

Room Darkening – The blind has a blackout coating (mylar) to ensure that they really do darken a room. 

Mylar is a stretched polyester film and is commonly used in products such
as space blankets, protective plastic coatings and insulators, because of its proven
thermal and insulting properties. Room darkening blinds has the highest thermal efficiency of all the fabric types. With standard factory clearances there is a 6.0mm gap between the jamb and the fabric on each side so some light bleed does occur at the side of the blind. If you are very sure of your measurements you could add 2-3mm to your smallest size measured and thereby reduce this light gap slightly.

Cord Type Corded (Standard) Supplied with one set of cords that raise and lower build. Cord cleat use to maintain loose cords when blind raised.

Cord Type Smartrise(Cordless) Blind raised and lowered using pull handle located on bottom rail of the blind.

Design Type Top Down Bottom Up (TDBU) raises blind from bottom, as standard, but allows for blind to be lowered from the top (blocking off bottom of opening and leaving top exposed.
