Ziptrak® Outdoor Fabric Options
With Ziptrak® providing such a robust protection from the outdoor environment, your choice of blind fabric becomes the key factor in determining the level of protection you get. Ziptrak® understands this – it’s why we work with reputable fabric manufacturers around the world to provide you with a wide selection of fabric types to choose from:
PolyWeave 5%
PolyWeave 1%
RainOut® Frosted
A Ziptrak® Outdoor exclusive, this popular fabric is the best for keeping rain out. Homeowners love it as it offers privacy, lets the light in and creates a frosted glass effect.
RainOut® Blackout
Recommended if you’re after outdoor blinds that offer a blackout effect in a smaller space. As part of the RainOut® series, consider this instead of curtains or roller blinds on your sliding doors.
ClearViewTM
This marine-grade PVC is well-loved by cafe and restaurant owners who want to use their outdoor spaces even on rainy days. And by property owners with million-dollar views!
