Blinds & Shutters - Issue 2-2023

As I write this it seems as if the Government has reached an agreement with the EU regarding trading arrangements with Northern Ireland. This seems long overdue and let’s hope it doesn’t led to a two tier system within the UK and it gets through Parliament. Also energy prices are still high on the agenda and decisions are being made as we speak on whether there will still be any financial help from the Government. Industry does not seem to be talked about as much as consumers, but if the Government really want to control inflation, energy prices have to come down for prices not to continue rising. It’s a tough time for everyone in the UK, I hope it ‘s not going to get any harder for industry. John Hatcher, Editor

ROLLER BLINDS<br />

Designs take inspiration from nature,<br />

with highlights including patterns with leaves<br />

and birds and abstract floral designs.<br />

There’s also a number of fabrics that<br />

have been created for children’s rooms, with<br />

fun designs and bold colours incorporated.<br />

Design Options<br />

Personal finishing touches can be<br />

incorporated to further enhance the<br />

product, including a choice of bottom bar<br />

treatments or decorative trims. The ‘design<br />

edition’ elements allow customers to match<br />

their bottom bar to the brackets for a<br />

cohesive look.<br />

The brand’s SoftRaise® operating system<br />

is new and revolutionary for roller blinds,<br />

allowing the user to simply pull down on<br />

the bottom bar to a desired height and the<br />

blind will stay in that position.<br />

Smart Home Control<br />

For the ultimate in smart home<br />

convenience, homeowners can team any<br />

Automation, allowing users to program<br />

their shades to automatically open, close<br />

or adjust on a schedule.<br />

PowerView® Automation also<br />

seamlessly integrates with other smart<br />

home systems and speakers including<br />

Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and<br />

Apple HomeKit for voice-activated control<br />

of window coverings.<br />

Or, go one step further and pair-up with<br />

selected smart heating thermostats for a<br />

complete smart home. Using the Luxaflex<br />

app (via the PowerView hub), when the<br />

thermostat has reached a certain<br />

temperature and the heating switches off,<br />

users can schedule smart blinds to move<br />

down - trapping in heat and saving on<br />

energy loss.<br />

Innovation comes built-in<br />
