Ultra-Blind is a system of blinds which are assembled and permanently sealed within the double glazing cavity. Once sealed in this totally dust-free environment, the blinds require no cleaning, always appear new and are protected from damage. Unlike external blind systems.

Ultra-Blinds also provide greatly enhanced sun shading features and also enhance the u-value of a sealed unit.

Ultra-Blind Venetian and pleated blinds are designed for use in double glazed units. They are manufactured in accordance with high technical specifications and stringent production standards. The slat raising, lowering and tilting functions are achieved using a rotational magnetic transmission through the glass, guaranteeing the units hermetic seal. The external magnet, fixed to the glass by double-sided high performance adhesive, gives perfect alignment with the internal magnet. The raising and lowering is achieved using a continuous cord loop that drives the external magnet. The cord is held lightly under tension by a cord tensioner on the glass directly below the external magnet.

External Institute Certified approval of this feature, with laboratory testing and assessment control of the incoming quality of materials to ensure compliance with agreed standards.
