Description

EVOLVE - Premium roller blind system fine tuned for both performance and aesthetics.


Sizes

The standard version of Evolve can stretch up to 4m wide, and has a maximum drop of 6m. The maximum surface area is 16m2.


However, Evolve Zero can span up to an impressive 5m wide, with a max drop of 4.2m and a max surface area of 10m2, all on a 44mm barrel.


Motors

We work with a varied range of motors, with Somfy and Nice options being among our most commonly used.


With this range, you can make use of hardwired or radio power and hardwired, radio, or digital controls.


Controls

When looking at controls for blinds, there are three main categories: Hardwired, Radio, and Smart.


Hardwired - Used for either physical switches on the wall, or wired directly into your smart home or BMS system. Hardwired control is always more reliable than radio over long distances.


Radio - Available either as small handsets with neat wall mounts, or as wall fixed switches. Radio offers a simple and flexible control option, ideal for smaller or retrofit projects.


Digital - The ultimate choice for intelligent control, with 2 way communication between blinds and controllers. providing features like infinitely customisable configuration at anytime, hembar alignment and straightforward wiring.


Fabric

We can supply blinds with fabric from any major supplier, meaning you have the choice between nearly any of the popular ranges.


You can browse our core and partner ranges here: Our Fabric Range.


We offer choices of sheer, screen, dimout, and blackout fabrics for a wide array of textures and styles.


Hembars

  • Ellipse 43 - Fabric Wrapped
  • Luxury - Aluminum Rectangle
  • Type 1 - Circular
  • Type 2 - Teardrop


Automation

Your blinds can be integrated into nearly any smart home system on the market. Whether that's Lutron, Control4, Savant, Crestron, KNX or anything else, there's a way to integrate with it.


This is great as it means that your blinds won't just be operating on their own, but will be able to share information with other smart home features like the lighting or heating.


There's a near infinite number of things that can be achieved with Integration.


For instance on a residential project a custom scene that dims the lights and shuts the curtains when you begin watching a movie could be created


In the commercial sector, automation could be in charge of maximizing heating while making sure that glare levels remain optimal.


Powder Coating

In-house powder coating means that you can choose any RAL colour for your hardware.


This means your blinds can seamlessly blend into or compliment any project.


Fascia & Cassette

Another stylistic option, Fascia and Cassette are aluminum profiles that can be used to conceal the roller part of the blinds and add an extra layer of style.
