How are faux wood blinds made?

Faux wood blinds as the name implies are manufactured from man-made materials and look very similar to real wood blinds. In some cases, it is very difficult to tell the difference between faux wood and real wood blinds. The combination of materials used provide tensile strength, opaqueness, volume, color, and waterproofing. The blinds are very durable and provide total privacy, partial light, or a full view through the entire window. For Carmel, these blinds are less expensive than real wood blinds because the cost of materials are less, and there is less waste in the manufacturing process. Faux wood blinds are the single most popular window treatment covering in the market.

How are real wood blinds made?

Real wood blinds as the name indicates are made from basswood or other hardwoods. The process begins with the harvesting of the trees, primarily in the northeast. The wood is cut, kiln-dried, sanded, stained or painted, and then finishes are applied. When the wood is received at the assembly factory, they are in bundles of various lengths. The stained wood varies in color based on the shipment. Dealing with the variety of lengths and dye lots, there is an increase in costs and waste. In addition, wood is more expensive than faux wood materials. However, wood blinds are lighter and are beautiful, especially with the variety in the stain choices.
