Wooden Blinds

Our collection of premium wooden blinds includes two material options: genuine hardwood and realistic faux wood. Real wood blinds are ideal for larger windows, such as in the living room or blinds for a bay window, as timber is surprisingly lightweight. Faux wood blinds are manufactured using premium PVC, making them ultra-durable and waterproof. These qualities mean faux wooden blinds are perfect for rooms with higher humidity levels, such as bathrooms and kitchens.

Research carried out by the University of Salford in partnership with the British Blind & Shutter Association (BBSA) shows how fitting blinds and shutters to the insides of windows can reduce heat transfer by up to 33%. By serving as an effective insulating layer, both real wood and faux wood blinds can prevent warm air from escaping outside in colder weather.

There is no straightforward answer to this question, as the best solution for you will depend on your home’s interior decor and where you plan to fit your new wooden blinds. Real wood and faux wood blinds both offer unique benefits which you should consider before deciding which type is right for you. Read our complete faux wood vs real wood blinds comparison guide to learn more about the similarities and differences between faux wood blinds and real wood blinds.

To clean PVC wood blinds, simply dust them regularly with a microfiber cloth or duster, as they are waterproof and can be wiped down with water if needed. For real wood blinds, dust them frequently and spot clean any stains using a damp cloth, ensuring you don’t saturate the wood since it isn’t waterproof.
