THE LATEST SMART AND CHILD-SAFE SOLUTIONS FROM COULISSE

Best for Kids Certified: Twin Pull

Introducing Coulisse’s latest child-safe by design solution: Twin Pull. The operating wands are the safest way to manually operate shades and provide all the benefits of chain operation in a child-safe design. By eliminating the continuous loop present in most clutch-operated shades, Twin Pull can safely raise and lower roller shades to any position at any time.

Child-Safe Solutions

Coulisse designs window coverings that are child-safe by design, as they take the safety of young children very seriously. Every day, the in-house engineering team is working to develop and improve their manual and motorized child-safe solutions. Discover the range that includes Twin Pull, Cordless and Motorized.

Available for Roller and Honeycomb

The child-safe by design solution Twin Pull is available for Roller and Honeycomb, which have been designed with beauty, performance and sustainability in mind. The Roller collections showcase the various lightfiltering, blackout, sheer, solar, screen and nature qualities—all categorized by functionality and appearance. These timeless collections, from must-have classics to luxurious statement pieces, are available in neutral earthy color tones to fit any interior style or taste.

Sheer, Solar & Screen Collections for Roller

Sheer, Solar & Screen Volume 1 focuses on the commercial and residential market, where functionality and style unite. These timeless and durable fabrics in beautiful neutral color tones offer healthy and inspiring spaces. The functional excellence of these fabrics creates perfect natural lighting, a pleasant indoor climate and optimal acoustics for office buildings, public places, health care facilities and hospitality venues. Sheer, Solar & Screen Volume 2 focuses on the residential market, as it embraces tactility and refinement. These modern fabrics consist of delicate fabrics in a variety of weaving textures: from linen-like materials to edgy-looking fabrics with a coarse wool texture. The soft color palette suits contemporary as well as classic interior styles.

Benefits of Honeycomb

The Honeycomb fabrics of Coulisse work like insulating blankets for windows and are proven to reduce heat loss in the winter by 46% and to reduce heat absorption in the summer by 78%. These energy-efficient shades save up to 12% of energy throughout the year. The unique cellular structure offers excellent insulating properties by trapping air in the distinct pockets. There is an additional built-in aluminum layer in all the blackout fabrics.

Safe Smart Home: MotionBlinds

Also, if you connect MotionBlinds to other smart devices such as locks, doorbells and cameras, you can always keep an eye on your home wherever you are in the world.

Award-Winning Eve MotionBlinds Is Matter Certified

Pioneering Eve MotionBlinds is the first smart blinds motor platform on the market to use Matter-over-Thread and was named CES 2023 Innovation Award Honoree for its Upgrade Kit for Roller Blinds at the biggest smart home and tech event in the world in Las Vegas.

Tech Pioneers: Coulisse and Eve

Coulisse launched Eve MotionBlinds a year ago in collaboration with German smart home specialist Eve Systems. Seeing the gap in the market, the two companies put their designers and engineers together to create the firstever smart window covering motors. They support the latest smart home technologies Thread and Matter and work seamlessly in any smart home. Smart shading increases comfort, enhances security and helps save energy, making it an essential smart home product category.

“We are extremely proud to be the first company in the world to integrate Matterover-Thread technology into motorized blinds,” said Jop Vos, Managing Director of Coulisse Americas. “This allows our products to work seamlessly with other devices that support the universal smart home standard Matter, which is being developed jointly by Amazon, Apple, Google, Samsung and others. Being honored with an award is a major recognition of our forwardthinking developments in smart window coverings.”

About Matter

Matter is a new smart home protocol developed jointly by Amazon, Apple, Google, Eve and many other manufacturers to eliminate incompatibilities in the smart home once and for all. Matter-certified products are a breeze to integrate into your smart home. Your entire family can control your home via a smartphone or a voice assistant effortlessly using any device they choose. That’s because Matter doesn’t mind if you use an iPhone, Android device, Alexa-enabled smart speaker, Google Assistant or Siri.

Smart Window Coverings

Smart shading increases comfort, enhances security and helps save energy. Natural light and temperature in smart homes can be controlled automatically by letting devices such as blinds, thermostats and lighting work together. In doing so, smart blinds can open and close automatically to control heat and light, helping to reduce energy consumption, save costs and create the perfect indoor climate anytime, anyplace, anywhere.
