Temperature control, light control, cleanability, functionality and safety, these are all things that a suitable window covering can offer, and to you, as a parent, that means better sleep in a safe and healthy environment for both you and your little one. You may not see them on your typical ‘must-have’ list for new parents, but it’s not hard to see how important they are. 

We say enough of this sheer curtain, daylight flooded nursery ‘inspiration’, if you want the best blind system for you child’s room that looks good too then only Luxaflex Roller Blinds will do. 

Sleep easy

With newborns sleeping up to 16 hours a day, and nap time a big part your little one’s day we’re sure you’re all too familiar with just how important sleep can be, that’s why creating a perfect sleep-inducing environment is paramount. Next to your crib choice and mattress, darkness is a major proponent of this. 

With an optional Headbox System and Side Channels, our Roller Blinds can provide a total blackout solution. That means that whenever it comes to putting overtired tots to rest, all you have to do is tuck them in and lower your blinds to lull them into a deep sleep. Easier said than done, we know, but it definitely goes a long way to helping you achieve some downtime.

Even better yet, with the blinds down you’ll achieve a level of comfort through thermal control. Helping to block the elements, you’ll be better equipped to keep out the heat or cold no matter the season.

Easy cleaning 

We know what kids are like, and let’s just say being clean isn’t always their number one priority. That’s where Duraguard® Fabric Protection becomes your best friend – a lot of our fabrics have it!

Whether it’s crayon, sticky fingers or food, Duragaurd simply stops stains sticking and makes cleaning a breeze. Made from a water-based, preventative formula, it’s safe too with no harmful chemicals in sight.

Breathe easy

Asthma and allergies can also be a big issue when it comes to our little ones. Common triggers often include house dust mites and mould. Traditional window coverings like curtains and netting can harbour such allergens which only exacerbate the problem. That’s where Sanitize® Antimicrobial Protection holds it’s own.

Free of harmful substances and applied to various Roller Blind fabrics, Sanitize actively works to prevent the development of bacteria and mildew, effectively eliminating associated odours and ensuring freshness and well-being in your home in the process. Recommended by institutions for allergy sufferers, Sanitize coated fabrics are a must!

Non-toxic & low VOC

Volatile organic compounds, more commonly known as VOCs have become a bit of a hot topic in recent years, and rightfully so. A questionable concoction of vapours and gases (a by-product of the production process), they’re found in many household products, but that definitely doesn’t mean they’re ok.

With the ability to cause nose and throat discomfort, headaches, skin and eye irritation, it’s the last thing we want floating around in our kids’ rooms. That’s why at Luxaflex we take great care to only use Roller Blind fabrics that are non-toxic and low in VOCs.

Going the extra mile, we also carry a range of OEKO-TEX® 100 Certified and GREENGAURD® Australia Certified fabric options. Environmentally safe they are certified to have low chemical emissions and are free from harmful substances.\
