How Sustainable Window Treatments Create Comfort, Savings & Style

Green living isn’t just a trend. Fortunately, it’s becoming a way of life. Homeowners today want more than just stylish spaces; they want to feel good about the choices they make. That’s why we’ve partnered with Hunter Douglas over the years. Their window coverings deliver standout quality and timeless design, all while staying ahead of the game in sustainability. Thinking about sustainable window treatments? You’re in the right place. Our team at Blue Sky Shutters & Shades is here to help you figure out what works best in your home and why. Let’s get started.

Responsible Production

Making products responsibly is not an easy task, but Hunter Douglas continues to show how it can be done. Every one of their window treatments is GREENGUARD Gold certified. This means they meet strict standards for low chemical emissions. This helps ensure cleaner air in your home and results in fewer health concerns for your family.

Their environmental focus extends into forestry, too. The Parkland® Wood Blinds collection is made from responsibly managed forests, and each purchase contributes to the Arbor Day Foundation. It’s a thoughtful way to blend natural beauty with conservation.

Utility Savings

Who doesn’t love saving money while doing good for the planet? Sustainable window treatments are more than just a way to upgrade your style. They’re a smart investment for energy efficiency. They help regulate your home’s temperature, keeping it cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, all while easing the load on your utility bills.

On top of that, they welcome natural light in ways that reduce the need for artificial lighting. Sheer shades filter harsh sunlight into a soft glow, while top-down designs brighten your space without sacrificing privacy or comfort. The result is a cozy, energy-smart home with less reliance on the light switch.

Hunter Douglas has even reimagined motorization with eco-friendliness in mind. The rechargeable battery wand works with all PowerView® automated shades. So you can say goodbye to wasteful disposable batteries. If you want to go a step further, solar-powered shades let you enjoy automation powered by the sun.

Renewable & Recycled Materials

Hunter Douglas is also transforming what materials can do. From roller shade fabrics crafted with reclaimed ocean plastics to aluminum blinds made with recycled metals, their designs turn everyday waste into something new and beautiful. Some collections even use up to 50% recycled content, giving discarded materials a new life.
