All window blind fabrics used in schools and commercial properties must meet fire safety standards. All our blinds and curtain fabrics are fire retardant in accordance with BS5867 and are installed to the child safety standard BS EN 13120:2009+A1:2014.
For added peace of mind, we also offer crank-operated, side-guided, and fully automated systems—eliminating the need for cords or chains.
When selecting the most suitable window blind and fabric for a classroom, it’s important to consider the room’s specific use.
For example, in IT suites, a roller blind with screen fabric can help reduce glare on computer screens while still allowing natural light to enter—supporting both well-being and concentration.
In contrast, for auditoriums or lecture halls where presentations are held, blackout blinds are often the best choice, preventing any glare from disrupting lessons or visual displays.
Research into the relationship between daylight and human performance has shown that students progressed 15% faster in maths and 23% faster in reading when taught in classrooms with the highest levels of natural light, compared to those with the least.
Cooler classroom environments also support better concentration, while warmer temperatures have been linked to reduced attention spans.
Efficient shading systems can help maintain comfortable indoor conditions by reducing reliance on artificial lighting and air conditioning—creating a healthier, more effective learning environment.
