Manual Integral Blinds

Manual Integral Blinds — also known as manual integrated blinds or built-in blinds, refer to a shading system that is sealed inside the glass unit of a double or triple glazed window or door. Unlike traditional blinds, these are encased between two panes of glass, meaning they are dust-free, maintenance-free, and offer a sleek, modern aesthetic.

🔹 Applications

Manual integral blinds are ideal for:
Windows and doors (especially sliding doors, bifold doors, and French doors)
Office partitions
Hospitals and schools (where hygiene and low maintenance are priorities)
Residential projects seeking a clean, modern design
Australian Standard
