 Just as sunscreen protects our skin from the sun's damaging ultraviolet
(UV) rays, window treatments protect our room interiors. Left unprotected for a
prolonged period of time, our possessions will succumb to the same fate as those
of us who routinely pass on the SPF 15 sunscreen: premature aging. That means our
wood floors will bleach and dry out and the color will fade from our paintings and
Oriental rugs.
Virtually every Hunter Douglas product filters out at least 75% of the sun's harmful
UV rays when closed over double-glazed glass windows. Many of our products provide
even greater protection, up to 99% when closed.
You'll see specific UV protection information for each individual product inside
the Our Products section. The degree to which our products will meet your UV protection
needs will depend on the fabrics and product features you choose and whether your
window covering is open, closed, raised or lowered.
