Environmentally Conscious Shades for Homes
As Floridians, there is nothing that we love more than our stunning oceans and beaches. From hot summer days spent in the waves to walking along the coast at sunset, our beaches and oceans mean a lot to us. That is why it is alarming and upsetting to see plastic waste where it is not supposed to be. While we can make efforts to “go green” by turning off light switches when we leave a room, shut off faucets when not actively using the water while brushing our teeth, and taking shorter showers, taking the extra step to help clean our oceans can make a huge difference. That is why we heavily recommend environmentally conscious shades from Hunter Douglas, including Designer Screen Shades made with Greenscreen Sea-Tex™ fabric. Read on to learn more about these environmentally conscious shades made from reclaimed marine plastic.
Why Sustainable Shades?
As mentioned, ocean conservation is something many Floridians hold near and dear. Hunter Douglas feels the same way. Recent studies suggest that 9 million tons of plastic waste are dumped into our oceans each year, a number that is incredibly alarming considering how dangerous plastic waste is to marine life. Add that to the fact that the ocean’s currents, wind, and waves then form giant collections of plastic, and you have literal floating hazards making their way around our beaches and waters. That is why Hunter Douglas is proud to be part of a program that has reclaimed over 30 tons of plastic waste and aims to reclaim even more. Not only that, but Hunter Douglas took this effort a step further by introducing Designer Screen Shades, their environmentally conscious shades.
Designer Screen Shades
In order to help keep our oceans clean, Hunter Douglas has partnered with Bionic®. Bionic® is a mission-driven material engineering company has created a coastal recycling infrastructure in developing nations that creates textiles retrieved from plastic in the ocean or on coastlines. To help increase these efforts and expand them to the general public, Hunter Douglas paired up with Bionic® and created a yarn engineered from the recovered plastics mentioned above. This is then used to create the fabrics used to make our Hunter Douglas GreenScreen® Sea-Tex™ Designer Screen Shades.
If you think you are about to hang old soda bottles on your windows, let us reassure you. This new fabric comes in five stunning neutral tones and boast 3 percent openness for a shade that looks traditional, but packs an environmentally conscious punch. Designer Screen Shades also boast unparalleled privacy, UV protection (a must in our intense Florida weather!), glare control, and view-through while gently filtering those harsh Florida rays. If you have been searching for environmentally conscious shades, look no more. Designer Screen Shades are ready to come home with you!
