Duette Blinds
The double-layer form of the honeycomb. Two separate air cushions, solid insulation.
Duette Blind Categories
Double-layer Duette fabric is divided into sheer, dim-out, blackout, pattern and print classes. The class matching the scenario is marked.
Plain Duette Blinds
Unpatterned double-layer fabric. The essential option combining insulation with a plain look.
Sheer Duette Blinds
Transparent double-layer fabric. Softens sunlight twice, preserves the view and keeps the airiness.
Printed Duette Blinds
Motif-printed double-layer fabric. Insulation performance meets a decorative surface.
Textured Duette Blinds
Texture-worked double layers. The visual power of pattern added to the cell structure.
Sunscreen Duette Blinds
Sunscreen-character double-layer fabric. Cuts the harsh light, keeps the brightness.
Every mounting scenario calling for drilling, hanging or in-channel seating is examined per scenario on the Duette Blind Installation Types page; the places the series are fitted are shown under application areas.
What Is a Duette Blind?
A Duette blind is a cellular blind produced from double-layer cellular fabric. Seen from the side, two back-to-back rows of hexagons are visible. Air is trapped in two pockets — delivering a stronger thermal barrier and softer light filtering than the single layer.
Its working logic is the same as the honeycomb blind. The headrail, rail and mounting architecture are shared — the difference is in the fabric layers. The comparison table puts the two families side by side.
Selection Guide
Where Does Duette Make a Difference?
Honeycomb is enough on a standard window. The four scenarios where the double layer stands out are below.
- BedroomBlackout and insulation in one fabric. Dark by night, warm in winter.
- ConservatoryTwo air pockets — the strongest interior barrier on a glass surface.
- SkylightThe two-end folding system works on sloped ceilings.
- Wide Glass FaçadeHarsh daylight is filtered through two layers. A soft brightness remains.
Duette or Honeycomb?
Two families in the same table. The decision is in the fabric layers.
| Feature | Honeycomb | Duette |
|---|---|---|
| Layer layout | Single-layer cell | Double layer — nested cells |
| Air pockets | 1 | 2 |
| Thermal contribution | Standard | High |
| Light filtering | Clear | Softer, more diffused |
| Blackout success | Good | The highest — cell air + blackout fabric |
| Ideal scenario | Standard window | Bedroom, conservatory and skylight |
Both families use the same headrail and mounting architecture. The difference is only in the fabric layers.
Mounting Types
Duette fabric sits with five connection styles. The mounting detail is shown when hovering the relevant row.
| Model | Drilling | Removal | Connection Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Screw-Mounted Duette Blind | Yes | Hard | Stable, long-lasting operation on large glazing |
| Adhesive Duette Blind | No | Medium | Fitted without harming the joinery |
| Glazing-Bead (Portray) Duette Blind | No | Easy | Opens and closes with the window |
| Hook-Mounted Duette Blind | No | In a minute | Fast fitting, easy removal |
| Bracket-Mounted Duette Blind | Yes | Medium | Frameless areas. The headrail is carried to the façade plane |
- Green. No-drill or easy-removal mounting
- Amber. Drilling required or removal is laborious
On skylight applications, carrying safety takes priority over removal ease — motorised and screw-mounted are preferred.
Duette Fabric Classes
Three light-transmission levels. All are double layer — the difference is how much light the lining cuts.
- Diffused light
Transparent Duette
Double-layer transparent. Harsh daylight passes through two fabrics and spreads evenly across the room.
- Blackout
- Light Filtering
- Thermal Barrier
- Transmission
- High — shadowless brightness
- Privacy
- Partial by day
- Ideal for
- Living room, work area
- Balanced
Semi-Opaque (Dimout)
A double layer gently cutting the light. The silhouette is invisible, the room does not darken.
- Blackout
- Light Filtering
- Thermal Barrier
- Transmission
- Medium — cuts the silhouette
- Privacy
- Full
- Ideal for
- Bedroom and living room
- Full blackout
Blackout Duette
A light-proof lined double layer. The cell air also reduces leakage — the strongest barrier.
- Blackout
- Light Filtering
- Thermal Barrier
- Transmission
- Near zero
- Privacy
- Full
- Ideal for
- Sleeping room and conservatory
All three classes are produced with the same double-layer cell architecture. The lining sets blackout success; the mounting type sets edge leakage.
Duette in Four Steps
The decision for the two-layer fabric starts with the glass measurement and room details.

Tell Us the Glazing and the Room
Bedroom, conservatory or skylight. Measurement and room details from three channels land in one file.

On-Site Fitting or Courier
On-site fitting is done by the crew within the service area. For other cities, a pack with installation video ships by courier.
- Two Air PocketsA double-layer cell. A stronger thermal barrier than the single-layer structure.
- Soft BrightnessHarsh daylight is filtered through two layers — a diffused brightness remains in the room.
- Two-End FoldingBottom fixed with a folding top, or both ends meeting in the middle. The skylight solution.
