Shades and blinds are an excellent option to combat excess light filtering into any rooms of a house. There are various types of blinds available in the market as well as on the Net. There are four basic types of blinds, namely, PVC, composite, value and premium wood blinds. Depending on the décor of the house, people can opt for a particular type of blind.
Faux or PVC blinds are made of poly vinyl chloride, which could be either solid or foamed, as per requirement. They are known to be long lasting, can resist UV and moisture, and are very easy to clean. Their slats are very heavy, though. These blinds are cheap since the slats and other parts are made of PVC.
Composite blinds are a fairly recent entry into the market. The slats come in flat or elliptical shapes. The slat surface is generally poly-coated. The choice of colors is limited. Composite blinds are priced in the low- to mid-range. They are quite sturdy, and UV and water-resistant. They are less likely to rot and easier to clean. Composite blinds are lighter than PVC blinds, but heavier than the wood variety.
Value and premium wood blinds are made from Oriental hardwoods. The slats of premium wood blinds are made of American hardwoods such as basswood. Wood blinds are the most exclusive blinds a buyer can go in for. Wood blind slats are the lightest of all blinds and are the best bet for large windows.
Customers may choose blinds according to personal preference, for light-filtering, room darkening or simply as a part of elaborate interior decoration. There are choices that can be made in fabric, color and style, as per their requirements and budget. Elite customers can also opt for some of the top brands in blinds such as Bali, Hunter Douglas and Graber.
