Cellular shades are a nice alternative to blinds. Many home owners are looking for a softer and cozier look.
Cellular shades are perfect for this application. The fabric in cellular shades gently softens the light to give a
warm glow to the room. Unlike pleated shades, no strings are visible. As you know, shades are either open or closed.
The only means of controlling light is by the density of the fabric, there are no slats to tilt. Because of this,
cellular shades are offered in a variety of light blocking levels, from sheer to opaque. There are a wide variety of colors
to choose from, however, the outside of the shade is always white. Cellular shades stack very tightly out of the way at the
top of the window when raised. This can be particularly interesting to you if you want an unobstructed view
during the day, but total privacy at night. Cellular shades are a very good insulator. Other soft type window treatments such
as curtains, drapes or roman shades are available but none offer the versatility of cellular shades.
The patented cellular honeycomb innovation combines the luxury of soft fabric with remarkable strength
and superior performance. These shades can be created with no visible cords, holes or seams. No other
design brings more dimension, color and style into your home, or more energy efficiency and easy maintenance into
your life.
With a variety of pleat sizes, cellular shades add depth and drama to your home. The three-eighths inch pleat has crisp,
clean lines and a tailored look that's perfect for classical balance and contemporary beauty. The three-quarter inch
pleat has a bolder look that brings endless elegance to an endless expanse. And for a truly majestic style, nothing quite
matches the scale of a two-inch pleat.
Cellular shades provide excellent light control. Transparent fabrics come in soft pastels, dark sheers and exquisite lace
looks. These shades put your room in soft focus and your view in the center of attention.
If you prefer a soft glow and soothing privacy, our translucent fabrics will adorn your windows in three pleat sizes and an array of stunning colors

Durability and Easy Maintenance

Their brilliant colors won't pale, and their pale colors won't fade away. The fabrics are anti-static, repelling dust and dirt, and are even washable. And the sleek aluminum hardware
is strong, lightweight, and won't rust even if the entire shade is submerged in water. Cellular shades can be kept clean with minimal care.
