To support sustainable living, Luxaflex® developed Duette® Architella Shades to reduce the staggering 50% of heat lost through windows, even with double glazing.

How Duette® Shades Work

It’s all down to the distinctive honeycomb cells which trap air, allowing them to act as an insulator. This helps to keep your home warm in winter by keeping more heat in, and cooler in the, summer by reducing incoming heat.

The unique cell-in-cell construction with three insulating air layers, offer superb insulation for your home.

The special design also helps block the suns UV rays, which left unchecked can cause fading of flooring and furniture. Duette® blinds create softly diffused light in your home with an exclusive colour and design choices to suit your style .
