Looks Good, Good Looks with Mermet’ s Ultimetal
Blinds in the Mermet Ultimetal fabric don’ t only look good themselves, they also give good views of the outside and permit good views inside by removing excess levels of light and glare. Whilst they will significantly reduce summer heat gain from the sun, unusually, if deployed on winter nights they will also assist in conserving night time warmth.
When not in use, the thinness of the fabric permits its rolling up into a very small headbox, which powder coated to match the window frame makes the installed blind so discrete as to be almost invisible. Time you had a good look at Mermet’ s Ultimetal.
