Kitchen Blinds

For your kitchen, we recommend choosing a blind that will withstand changing atmospheres and splashes that are common within a kitchen environment. Opting for a waterproof blind will help to ensure that your blind stands the test of time against steam and humidity - we suggest faux wood blinds, aluminium venetian blinds, or PVC waterproof roller and vertical blinds. Our PVC blinds are also flame retardant, providing you with that extra peace of mind. If you’re looking for a sleek, modern look, our faux wood and aluminium venetian blinds are available with no-drill perfect fit, clip fit and stick fit installation, meaning they’ll move with your window, perfect for when you need to ventilate the room.

It goes without saying, when you’re shopping for blinds to be hung above a kitchen sink, you need something that is durable, waterproof, easy to clean and aesthetically pleasing, as often the sink area can act as a focal point in kitchens. With this in mind, we would recommend our faux wood venetian blinds as the best blinds for the window above a kitchen sink. Made from tough PVC slats that are designed to look like real wood, they are tough and durable, won’t rust or warp and can be simply wiped clean whilst looking incredibly stylish and sleek.

Whilst waterproof blinds aren’t fundamental in a kitchen, having them will help your kitchen blind to look pristine for longer. Opting for a waterproof or water resistant blind means that you won’t have to worry about splashes, steam or unwanted smells penetrating the fabric. They are also super easy to clean by simply wiping with a damp cloth. To upgrade your kitchen interior with a practical and stylish window solution, shop our range of waterproof blinds today!

Keeping kitchen blinds clean can be straightforward with regular maintenance and the right techniques. Use a microfiber cloth, duster or vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove dust regularly to help prevent the build up of grime and grease. Address spills and splatters immediately with a soft cloth, mild detergent and warm water to prevent stains from settling. Avoid using harsh chemicals or detergents that may damage the blind’s material of fabric. By following these tips, you can keep your kitchen blinds looking clean and fresh for years to come.

There are steps that you can take to reduce the risk of mouldy blinds. When it comes to preventing mould from growing on your blinds, ventilation is key. Regularly open your windows to encourage airflow throughout your home to get rid of any humid air and condensation. In areas, such as kitchens and bathrooms, where humidity and steam are common, use an extractor fan or dehumidifier and ensure you are opening your windows when cooking or releasing steam into the air from the kettle or dishwasher. Regularly wipe your blinds down with a soft, damp cloth to keep on top of any nasties which may form and allow them to air out to dry. To eliminate the risk of mouldy blinds altogether, we recommend opting for water resistant or waterproof blinds as they don’t absorb water, making them less susceptible to wet and damp which can cause mould to form.
