Homeowners are often looking at the products in their home with a keen eye for how to make it look good and perform better. One way they are doing that is through more eco-friendly window treatments. With a wave of sustainable window coverings on the market, Hunter Douglas is at the forefront of offering unique solutions to today’s questions about how to bring these into today’s homes. Families who are seeking more options for fabulous design paired with sustainable products will be interested in what we have to offer. Let’s see what makes them great and how to get them in your home.
Green Commitment
When considering how to create a home with durable, beautiful products, it is worth thinking about how the products are made in the manufacturing process. Hunter Douglas window coverings offer GREENGUARD Gold certification for low chemical emissions. The products go through a strict testing process that takes air quality and your health into account. Their commitment to making great products with a focus on eco-friendly and sustainable manufacturing processes is another reason to love them for your home.
Take, for instance, a collection by Hunter Douglas-Parkland Wood Blinds. Responsibly harvested wood is used from forests with a focus on creating a functional, eco-friendly product. Using responsible processes is key to making these products work for your home. Purchases from wood blinds also go to the Arbor Day Foundation for its efforts in conservation.
Cost-Effective Products
Sustainable products are not in existence without the diligent, behind-the-scenes work of creating them for homeowners. The idea is not just that they look beautiful and function, but that they also save homeowners money. How does that work, you ask? Eco-friendly products sometimes come with a ‘mental price tag’ that people assign to sustainability. Hunter Douglas has worked hard to produce fairly priced and sustainably manufactured window coverings for your home that will save money with energy-efficient design. In line with this, window coverings keep the home feeling comfortable with a temperature-controlled space. Save money on your energy bills while keeping privacy a top priority.
A main feature of these blinds is to keep sunlight out when you want a cooler space, while also helping your home look its best. Sheer shades let light in, but reduce the glare for comfort in a well-lit space. Top-down shades invite light to enter across the ceiling to illuminate the entire room, so you can avoid the overuse of artificial lighting. Without making many other changes to the home, you can simply install beautifully designed window coverings that keep heat out and save money in your pocket!
If you are looking for blinds, look no further! Hunter Douglas loves to make life easier for homeowners, especially when it comes to motorized blinds. With disposable batteries, they often end up in landfills. A rechargeable battery wand to move motorized blinds shifts away from disposable batteries towards sustainable practices. Open to new possibilities that look good and keep the home feeling cool inside when it gets hot outside. Other options can include solar-powered window shades for sustainable window coverings. The options are truly endless for both design and function!
Environmentally Conscious Design
The production of sustainable window coverings means the use of recycled materials to pull it all together. From look to function, roller shades can be a great option for the eco-friendly home that loves materials recycled from ocean plastics. Metal blinds are a great option, made from recycled aluminum and more. Hunter Douglas seeks products that can create the home you deserve. Some collections use 50% recycled materials in their products.
Look to the Provenance Woven Wood collection for its naturally designed shades made from woven fibers. Using products like this has less environmental impact, and it means better options for your home. Create a greener space in your home that you will love.
