VELUX Duo Blackout Roller Blinds
About VELUX duo blackout roller blinds
The VELUX duo blackout roller blind is a blackout blind and a pleated blind in one. The blackout blinds are made of dirt-repellent polyester with a special heat-blocking aluminium coating on the reverse side that retains heat in the room in winter and reflects heat from the sun in summer. The pleated blind, which is mounted at the bottom of the blackout blind, lets you regulate and diffuse the daylight. The pleated blinds are made for VELUX roof windows.
VELUX 2 in 1 blinds
With a blackout blind at the top and a translucent pleated blind at the bottom, VELUX duo blackout blinds give you complete control over how much daylight enters your room. If you want to sleep (day or night), close the top blackout blind fully. If you want to block out the sunlight and have some privacy, use the lower translucent pleated blind and adjust it to your needs. The 2-in-1 VELUX blackout blind is the perfect choice for the bedroom, living room or home office, where sometimes you need complete blackout and other times you need soft daylight to create a cosy atmosphere.
The VELUX duo blind is available in various colours to match your interior and side rails in either white or brushed aluminium.
