Bamboo may look like wood, but it’s actually a fast-growing grass with hollow stems that packs surprising strength and elegance. While pandas love it as food, homeowners are discovering it as an incredible material for window furnishings as it combines natural beauty, durability, and environmental responsibility.


What are Bamboo blinds?

Bamboo Venetian blinds are made from thin slats of real bamboo woven together with vertical or horizontal tapes, creating a sophisticated window covering that works in virtually any room. 

Our handcrafted UK-made blinds come in multiple finishes — from natural wooden tones like cream, walnut, and oak to modern options like white, grey, and black — suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, and conservatories. Every blind comes with a five-year guarantee.

Why choose Bamboo blinds?

There are some great benefits of using bamboo, from superior style to improved green credentials! Let’s start with the look.

Bamboo Venetian blinds create an elegant, modern feel in a space. Featuring a delicate textured appearance, the bamboo slats will add a natural twist to your decor. Moreover, as a Venetian blind, they are easy to clean with a quick dust rejuvenating their sophisticated style. 

Environmentally, bamboo is an excellent choice for making a range of things from wooden blinds to even socks! When compared to the same mass of trees, bamboo produces 35% more oxygen and studies have shown it can absorb as much as 12 tonnes of carbon dioxide per hectare per year!

Bamboo also grows at a very rapid rate – sometimes up to 90cm per day. For bamboo to grow to its full maturity, it only takes one to five years and then regrows from its own root system, it doesn’t need to be planted again! With many trees taking decades to grow, bamboo is a more sustainable crop which is perfect for sustainability minded decorators

Are Bamboo blinds right for your home?

Bamboo blinds work particularly well in:

  • Kitchens: Moisture-resistant and easy to clean.
  • Living Rooms: The warm, natural texture creates inviting spaces.
  • Bedrooms: Provides effective blackout and privacy with a calming aesthetic.
  • Conservatories: Coordinates beautifully with natural light and garden views.

Considerations Before Buying

While bamboo blinds offer many advantages, consider these factors:

  • Moisture Sensitivity: In extremely humid environments (like bathrooms without proper ventilation), wooden blinds may warp over time. They’re best suited to well-ventilated spaces.
  • Light Filtering: Bamboo slats filter light rather than completely block it. If you need total darkness, consider blackout backing options.
  • Style Compatibility: Their natural aesthetic works best with modern, minimalist, rustic, or Scandinavian interiors.

Choosing Your Perfect Bamboo Blind

Colour and Style Options

  • Natural Tones: Cream, walnut, and light oak create warm, inviting spaces
