VELUX Blackout Energy Pleated Blinds
About VELUX blackout energy pleated blinds
Here's why you should choose VELUX blackout energy pleated blind:
VELUX blackout energy blinds give you the optimal combination of blackout, light reduction and insulation. Thanks to the aluminium-clad insulation layer inside the blinds' honeycomb structure, you get both blackout and thermal insulation when the blind is fully closed. These pleated blinds completely darken the room, making them perfect for bedrooms where a good night's sleep is essential.
To choose suitable blinds for your VELUX roof window, use our configurator to explore our VELUX blackout energy blinds. Start by selecting the type and size of your VELUX windows. You can find both on a plate inside the window frame.
Energy-saving blinds for roof windows
VELUX blackout energy blinds for roof windows are made of double-pleated blackout fabric with an aluminium-coated honeycomb inside, effectively blocking outside light. It also increases the window's insulating properties, resulting in a better indoor climate. Combined with its elegant appearance and flexible positioning options, the insulating roller blind is the perfect solution for bedrooms and living areas.
Choose from multiple operating methods
VELUX blackout energy blinds for roof windows are available with manual, electric or solar-powered operation. The blinds are operated manually via an operation bar located at the bottom of the blind. If you choose either electric or solar-powered operation, your blinds can be remote-controlled. This blind has flexible adjustment and positioning within the window frame. This means you can place it in precisely the position you want, so you can choose how much light enters the room.
Create a customised solution that fits your home perfectly by combining VELUX blackout energy blinds with other VELUX products. For example, consider external heat protection to maintain a comfortable temperature in your home, or consider an insect screen to prevent unwanted guests from entering when you air out.
