Honeycomb blinds are an extremely energy efficient window furnishing and are particularly well suited to the Australian climate. The pleated design of the Honeycomb blind is not only decorative but is technically very effective.
Both the material and cellular design of these blinds help reduce heat in the summer months and retain warmth during the colder months; a clever way to help reduce your energy bill. They are also excellent at absorbing sound, which is perfect for large hard-floored areas or for anyone living near or on a busy street.
Honeycomb blinds, also referred to as Cellular blinds, come fully automated or manually operated.
Marlow & Finch’s Honeycomb blinds are available in Sheer, light-flitering and block-out fabrics.

Fabric Cell Size
Small or large?
A gallery of colours and opacities in five unique cell sizes from small to large. Smaller cells offer a more traditional pleated shade look giving your room a snug and cosy feel. Larger cells are great for larger windows and doors giving your décor a more contemporary and elegant edge.
UV Blockage by Fabric Type
Room darkening fabrics offer homeowners the ability to significantly block out the sunlight reducing up to 100% UV light. While light filtering fabrics have a range of UV transmission and can create softer lighting for any room in the home. With Norman’s sheers, block as little as 49.9% of UV light offering a screened view of the streetscape and a degree daylight privacy.

Palladian Shelf
The innovative solution creates a decorative mounting surface inside an arched window so a rectangular shade can be installed beneath an arched specialty shape shade. Palladian shelves are an elegant way to split the curved top part of the window with the squared bottom part of the window.
Save on Energy Costs
Cellular blinds boast extraordinary insulation properties contributing to a difference in room temperature of approximately 75% when compared to peak outdoor ambient temperatures. Ultra-insulating cellular blind fabrics with metallic internal coating prevent your environment from becoming uncomfortably warm in sunlight and help retain indoor heat during the chilly season; in addition to the trapped air inside each cell, a pocket of air forms between the honeycomb blinds and your window to maintain a consistent room temperature all year round.
