Scandinavian Designer Blinds (SDB) has developed a Venetian blind which is manufactured from Finnish pine with ecologic responsibility. SDB wooden blinds give premium quality sun protection and are custom made regarding size, colour and detailing. These Venetian blinds can be used as a flexible element for interior decoration of homes, offices and public rooms.
As part of its continuous product development Snickarboden is proud to present the new ecological wooden Venetian blinds. The whole manufacturing process is based on ecological thinking and generates only minimal emissions following a quality program.
The raw material is pine wood from local forests managed by responsible owners. These types of blinds are finished in linseed oil, also enhancing the wooden structure. The wood dryer and the rest of the Snickarboden factory are heated by pellets made of the wooden waste of the production.
Manufacturing and final assembly is a real craftsmanship that secures quality.
All in all a true nature product from the nearby forest to Your window.
In addition to the classic pine SDB blinds can be made of a variety of wood sorts of certified origin. The selection is recently revised and the production has been adjusted consequently.
A new cellulose-based top coating improves the resistance against moisture. The customer can combine any colour with each kind of the wood. SDB-Blinds give the option of choosing details in matching or contrasting colours. Blinds are made to measure up to a length of 3 meters. For added comfort there is the option of motorized blinds with elegant remote controls.
