Achieve functional summer shade with Luxaflex

The home of innovative outdoor and indoor shade, unparalleled performance and unique functionality that will enhance your home, here is a collection of some of our favourite blinds and awnings that will keep you well covered this summer.

Duette® Cellular Shades

Duette® Shades' temperature regulation performance within a window covering is unparalleled. The pioneer of honeycomb construction, their insulative air barrier helps block the exterior heat while keeping cool, conditioned air inside. Increasing the R-value of a 3mm single-glazed window from 0.127 up to 0.775 also makes Duette® Shades a perfect solution for retrofitting existing windows.

Automation makes Duette® Shades an even more compelling proposition. Powered by PowerView®, Duette® Shades operation can be scheduled or controlled via an app to enhance your lifestyle. Paired with Blockout fabric options, this set-up is particularly popular with those wishing to schedule morning wake-up calls via sunlight or draw their blinds while away.

Evo External Screens

Evo External Screens are an innovative combination of design, function, UV protection, airflow control and ease of operation. Engineered to exceed stringent quality standards, they are UV tested to establish fabric colourfastness, cycle-tested to replicate daily use for a minimum of 7 years, and wind load pressure tested to ensure more than adequate performance when conditions turn sour.

With four models to pick from, Evo screens allow you to effectively enhance the functionality of your outdoor space with an instant extension to your home. Easy to operate via a crank with a 9:1 gear reduction, Evo Screens can also be automated for scheduled operation or voice control. Like Te Rā, Evo Screens are particularly effective at protecting your home interior from the summer heat and UV, even when doors and windows are wide open.

Roller Blinds and Suncreens

With an elegant, ergonomic design and an extensive range of fabrics and operating systems to suit your light, glare, heat and privacy needs, Luxaflex Roller Blinds make for an essential summer staple in any home. 

Luxaflex Roller Blinds offer more than just sun screening. With an extensive fabric coatings range, you can select benefits like stain resistance, fire retardant and antimicrobial protection based on preference (more on coatings here). In addition, varying fabric classes, weaves, and opacities allow you to tune in your light/privacy balance.

Luxaflex Roller Blinds can be motorised to unlock automated functionality, improving energy consumption, convenience, comfort and security.

Te Rā Folding Arm Awnings

Our Te Rā Folding Arm Awning range offers unrestricted shade, unparalleled performance and unmatched customisation. Featuring marine-grade fabrics and Dyneema-tape connections that are 15 times stronger than steel while being stringently tested to meet European 13651 wind classification standards, Te Rā Awnings are built to last.

Non-structural, Te Rā Awnings bypass many red tape and construction barriers that hinder other market alternatives without sacrificing performance. Achieving spans up to a maximum of seven meters with a four-meter projection and five models offering various functionality like pitch control, automation and wind sensors, Te Rā has you well covered.

A popular choice for most outdoor entertaining areas, Te Rā Awnings also come with the added benefit of shading your windows and interiors.
Particularly effective for north-facing windows under the hot summer sun, this can help reduce your reliance on air conditioning and the associated energy costs.

Available in three different materials, including plantation-grown Timber, 97% recycled Aluminium, and incredibly durable Polyresin, you can pick the perfect finish for your interior while meeting the unique demands of any room they are placed—from high-humid environment to heavy UV exposure.
