Aluminium Venetians are a lightweight and cost-effective option. Aluminium Venetians are durable and are finished with a baked enamel coating which provides added flexibility to prevent damage if the blades are bent. Aluminium Venetian blade width is 25mm. 

Blade Overlap

Blade overlap – 5mm.
This is the amount that each blade covers the preceding blade.

PVC Venetians

PVC is a hard-wearing material that won’t experience cracking or fading over time. Unlike wood, PVC is completely water-resistant meaning it is perfect for wet areas. For Venetians, the blades are often covered with faux wood. The slats total thickness is usually approximately 3mm. These Venetians are designed to only be tilted in the downwards direction. PVC blade width is 50mm.
