The best fabric for your outdoor blinds depends on the type of protection you want. Café Blinds, made from clear or tinted PVC, create a complete barrier against rain, wind, dust, and insects—while still giving you an uninterrupted view outside. Because they are fully sealed, track-guided PVC blinds are also highly effective at keeping warmth in and maintaining the existing temperature of your outdoor space.
If you’d prefer some airflow while reducing sun, glare, dust, and insects, Sunscreen Mesh or Shade Blinds are the better option. Made from fabric with small perforations, they block a high percentage of wind and rain depending on the weave, help regulate temperature, and provide more privacy than PVC.
