The growing popularity of motorised blinds has caused Global International to review its range of motorisation options and upgrades

Motorisation has for many years been perceived as a complex and challenging aspect of the blind industry, with many industry specialists being reluctant to offer electronic upgrades in their portfolio, for fear of technical complications and an increased workload.

Similarly, the mere mention of motorised window blinds to consumers a few years ago would have seemed like a frivolity, a celebrity whim or an unnecessary expense. However, gradually this trend has changed as consumers have become more and more comfortable with and indeed reliant on technology. To coincide with this societal trend, we at Global International have reviewed our range of motorisation options and upgrades to ensure that we have something to offer everyone.

Having successfully supplied motorised roller blinds for years, we have now added motorised upgrades for wood and aluminium venetians, verticals and romans to our already extensive portfolio. These motorised products provide the ultimate in luxury and functionality for the consumer by allowing the blind to be operated by either the flick of a switch or the push of a button on a remote. With our standard 240V motor that can be fully integrated with all current audiovisual systems, we are able to supply products that can work in conjunction with the existing systems on the market.

Most importantly, the motorisation options that we supply give consumers an unparalleled user experience without the need for a big budget. Unlike many other suppliers, we are able to supply both complete made-to-measure motorised blinds, or competitively priced motorised kits. This kit service enables trade customers to manufacture motorised blinds without having to have the large stock holding to do so. We supply the motor with drive wheel, brackets and tube cut to size to allow you to manufacture with ease, in-house.
