Each product is engineered for easy processing, durability, and long-term performance.
Blackout and Dimout for Blinds and Drapes.
High-performance blackout and dimout coatings for curtains and blinds, developed to deliver exceptional light control, coverage, and aesthetic finish. Available in both three-coat and single/double-coat systems, depending on fabric and opacity requirements. Designed for consistency and reliability, these formulations make Nanoflam a trusted supplier in the decorative and contract blinds market.
FR Coatings.
Advanced flame-retardant coatings for blinds formulated as both foam and paste systems to meet international fire-safety standards including BS5867, DIN 4102 B1 & B2, and NFPA 701. These coatings ensure lasting protection, clean application, and compatibility with a wide range of woven and nonwoven substrates, supporting compliance and high production efficiency.
Roof Window and Pleated Blinds.
High-performance coatings for roof window and pleated blinds, engineered to resist extreme temperature variations and maintain stability in demanding environments. These formulations provide excellent flexibility, adhesion, and colour fastness while supporting a clean aesthetic finish. Our technical expertise allows for the development of bespoke coating solutions to meet precise performance requirements.
Ammonia Free Coatings.
Advanced ammonia-free foam coatings for blinds and drapes designed to eliminate issues associated with traditional ammonium stearate systems, such as volatile residues and “oil spot” formation. This formulation maintains superior technical performance and consistent quality while reducing equipment maintenance and environmental impact. A reliable solution for manufacturers seeking safer, high-quality blackout and performance coatings.
Halogen free blinds.
Environmentally responsible halogen-free flame-retardant coatings for blinds, developed as an alternative to traditional halogen-based systems. These NHFR chemistries provide stable, durable performance and meet strict technical standards for safety and sustainability. Available in both foam and paste formulations, they deliver excellent fire resistance and long-term reliability across a wide range of blind fabrics.

FAQ: Coatings for Blinds & Drapes
What’s the difference between blackout and dimout coatings?
Blackout aims for maximum light blocking, while dimout significantly reduces light but doesn’t fully block it. System design can involve single-, double-, or multi-coat constructions, selected based on required opacity, fabric type, and target feel.
Which FR standards are common for curtains and blinds?
Frequently referenced standards include BS 5867 (curtains and drapes), DIN 4102 B1/B2 (construction-related classifications), and NFPA 701 (drapes and films). The right standard depends on the country and whether the application is contract/hospitality/public space.
Why use a stiffening coating for blinds?
Stiffening coatings can enhance shape retention, dimensional stability, and processing behavior—helpful for products like roller blinds and louver applications where consistent hang and movement are critical.
What does “ammonia-free coating” mean in practice?
Ammonia-free systems are often selected to improve processing comfort and reduce odor-related issues sometimes associated with traditional systems. They can also be used to address quality concerns such as spotting, depending on the overall formulation and process.
Do you have coatings for pleated blinds and roof-window blinds?
Yes. These applications often require stability under temperature changes and long-term durability. Coating selection focuses on flexibility, adhesion, and maintaining appearance under real-life use conditions.
