Fire retardant wood ?

This title seems like a contradiction, but as a matter of fact there exists wood that is fire retardant. For specific situations very useful. Due to the strict European laws lots of places demand products that are fire retardant.

Thanks to our collection of fire retardant wood, which is conform the most strict standard (M1), venetian blinds in wood can be offered in these places as well. (e.g. hotels, public places, ..). Eventually a fire will affect the wood, but the wood has a fire retardant effect and will as result not catch fire.

The width of the slat is very important while choosing a venetian blind. In general, we can say that the larger the window, the wider you can take the slats. Smaller windows will be more elegant with 16mm slats, while large windows are at their best with 50mm slats.

Wood, an excellent insulator

Wooden window decoration – like bamboo blinds – has a great aesthetic character. It’s a warm material that ensures cosiness and at the same time radiates durability. Few realise that wood also has an important functional advantage: insulation.
