Outdoor Bliss Unleased: 7 Reasons why Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds are a Café Owner’s Secret Weapon

Hello, café owners!

We’re excited to share seven key reasons why Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds are the solution you’ve been looking for. They can be the secret weapon that transforms your café or restaurant.

As the original creators of track-guided blind systems, we’ve seen how these blinds turn outdoor areas into comfortable, all-weather spaces that customers love.


1.  Understanding the Café Environment

Running a café comes with its own challenges. One of the biggest is dealing with the weather.


Picture this: your patrons are enjoying a relaxed drink on your waterfront deck. Suddenly the wind picks up and the temperature drops. The cosy scene you planned disappears.


Clear PVC exterior blinds help protect your café from these surprises. They act as a shield between your customers and the elements.



2.  Ziptrak® Outdoor CLEAR PVC Blinds

Ziptrak® Exterior Clear PVC Blinds are the heroes of your outdoor dining area. They’re much more than standard door or window coverings.


They are made with:


  • tough, dimensionally stable clear PVC
  • a full aluminium, track-guided blind system


Together, these features help your café stay inviting and comfortable, even on windy days.



3.  The All-Weather Advantage

Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds help your café feel comfortable all year round.

They:


  • create a cosy, protected space for guests
  • stop sudden gusts of wind from blowing away menus and table settings
  • support your heating or cooling so your outdoor area stays at a steady temperature


With the blinds in place, those messy, wind-blown moments become a thing of the past.



4.  Engineered for Seaside Cafés


Rust can be a real concern, especially near the coast. Ziptrak® Track Guided Blinds are designed to tackle this.


They use a closed system, so only Ziptrak®-engineered aluminium and components are used. This design helps protect against rust and keeps the blinds performing well for years.


That’s why many seaside cafés around the world trust Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds to protect and make the most of their dining spaces.



5.  Enhancing Aesthetics and Comfort

You want your café to look great and stay protected from the weather at the same time.


Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds help you achieve both:


  • frames available in a wide range of colours and styles
  • options that blend with your café’s design and architecture
  • clear PVC that helps shield against UV, keeping the outdoor area cooler and more comfortable


Your café keeps its unique style while your customers stay relaxed and protected.



6.  Practical Operation and Maintenance

Good design should be easy to use every day. This is where Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds really shine.


With Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds:


  • the intuitive track-guided system makes them simple for staff to raise or lower
  • cleaning is quick — a fast wipe-down keeps them clear and inviting
  • for the best result, we recommend Swiftee, our cleaning formula made for all Ziptrak® Blinds and especially for Clear PVC Blinds


7.  Investing in Your Café’s Future

Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds are more than a short-term fix. They’re an investment in your café’s future.


They can help you:


  • increase usable seating all year round
  • reduce energy bills
  • cut down on furniture damage caused by UV and weather
  • deliver a great customer experience that keeps people coming back
  • use more of your outdoor area without pushing tables away from wind and rain
  • keep guests comfortable from dawn to dusk as the weather changes


Ziptrak® Clear PVC Blinds bring weather protection, style and comfort together in one smart package.
