Grey Solar Screen Roller Blind | 5% Openness, Made to Measure

This grey solar screen roller blind uses a 5% openness weave to reduce the harsh visual jump between a bright window and the room around it. Light- and mid-grey strands create a precise two-tone texture that reads as tactile up close and cleanly neutral from a normal viewing distance. It manages strong daylight without producing the closed-in feeling of an opaque blind, making it a practical option for living areas and screen-based workspaces alike.

A CALMER TRANSITION BETWEEN WINDOW AND ROOM
• The 5% openness figure describes the approximate proportion of micro openings in the weave; it is not a tested visible-light transmission or blackout percentage.
• The technical screen fabric filters direct sun and can help reduce glare, UV exposure and the sensation of solar heat close to the glazing.
• When it is brighter outside, a partial daytime view out is retained and inward visibility becomes more difficult; privacy reduces after dark when interior lights are on.
• The two-tone grey weave pairs readily with white, black, charcoal, oak, walnut, concrete, navy and stronger accent colours.
• Each blind is made to the ordered size and supplied with a chain mechanism and standard mounting hardware. It has no unpleasant odour in normal indoor use and can be wiped with a soft, lightly damp cloth.

NEUTRAL GREY THAT WORKS ACROSS RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL SPACES
Suitable for living rooms, studies, offices, meeting rooms, clinics, cafés, teaching spaces and shopfront glazing. In monitor-based work areas, the grey surface helps calm the perceived brightness of the window, while the perforated weave avoids cutting the room off completely from the exterior. It balances warm timber interiors and sits naturally beside black metal, concrete and contemporary furniture.

Expectation note: this is not a blackout blind and it will not provide complete darkness. UV and heat-control performance varies with glazing, aspect, coverage and sunlight; do not publish an exact percentage without a test report for the specific fabric. Add a second window layer where full night privacy is needed.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q1. What does 5% openness actually mean?
A1. Approximately 5% of the woven structure consists of regular micro openings. It does not mean that exactly 5% of visible light will enter the room.

Q2. Does the grey fabric look solid or two-tone?
A2. Light- and mid-grey yarns give it a two-tone texture at close range. From across the room it reads as an even, neutral grey.

Q3. Is it suitable for an office with computer screens?
A3. It can soften direct daylight and the contrast of a bright window, which may improve screen comfort. Monitor position and window direction still matter.

Q4. Can people see through it during the day?
A4. When daylight is stronger outside, looking in becomes more difficult and a partial view out remains. At night, interior lighting can reveal silhouettes and room detail.

Q5. How is it sized, fitted and cleaned?
A5. It is produced to the ordered dimensions and supplied with standard fitting parts. Remove dust with a soft cloth and wipe gently with a lightly damp cloth when necessary.
