The Quest for
Greener Environments
Because most people spend as much as 90% of their time indoors,
maintaining healthy indoor air quality is essential. Indoor air quality can be impacted by emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from surfaces and finishes. As a result architects, designers and purchasers are taking active measures to improve the standard of the building products and finished materials they use.
Luminos Blinds is at the forefront of bespoke window coverings and the only blinds manfacturer in the country that can be specified for Green buildings. Our exclusive range of commercial fabrics from Junkers & Müllers in Germany carries the SCS Global Services Indoor Advantage Gold certification. This guarantees compliance with rigorous indoor air quality emission requirements. The program is designed for interior building materials, furnishings and systems. Junkers & Müllers are also members of the USGBC and adhere to
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED).
Highly technical coverings for doors and windows
Our world class window blind products use the best-in-class components from the world’s leading manufacturers. We offer Architects, Interior Consultants and Green Building professionals products that have technical qualities to control light, heat, sound and hygiene. As members of The Green Building Council of South Africa we are fully aware of the needs of society to ensure that our environment is preserved and saved from harmful products.
