Office Blinds Installation for Standard Life Healthcare

The Brief

To comply with current EU Health and Safety directives, private medical insurer Standard Life Healthcare Limited appointed Broadview, a leading manufacturer of commercial blinds, to supply and install suitable adjustable window blinds.

The Broadview Solution

Following a two-way pitch, Broadview were chosen to install suitable window blinds to the seven-storey building which would reduce heat retention, remove solar glare as well as enhance the look and ambience of the office environment.

With large expanses of glass in the Standard Life Healthcare building design, Broadview designed and manufactured more than 120 black-out vertical blinds. Produced from the highest-grade PVC fabric, which is also flame-retardant, the vertical lines create a distinctly neat effect, whilst allowing maximum control over light and privacy.

Adjusting the louvres on the vertical blinds to the right angle helps to avoid glare, block UV rays by 100% and create a suitable level of lighting in the workplace.

As highly experienced suppliers of premium window blinds, we pride ourselves on our ability to find the perfect product for any commercial establishment. We discuss your requirements with you at length before suggesting the best possible shading solution. Contact our team today on 01202 679 012.

The Result

The bespoke blinds we supplied and installed for Standard Life Healthcare Limited are specifically constructed using materials which offer strength and durability, with light control options that include anti-glare and black-out fabric.

As a result of the new blinds, their staff can now work more efficiently without needing to deal with glare on computer screens and are protected from direct sunlight at eye level.

Maintaining an ambient temperature of 21.5° C, as stipulated in current EU Health and Safety directives, can be a challenge in large glass buildings such as this one.

Cooling systems are expensive to install, maintain and run. Broadview’s blinds have provided Standard Life Healthcare Limited with a cost-effective solution to meet employment law requirements in reducing excessive heat retention, helping the company minimise its carbon foot print in the process.

If your business requires new window blinds or curtains, our experts are here to help! We can custom make a variety of blinds to suit your exact measurements and requirements. Contact Broadview today on 01202 679 012.

Testimonial

“The health, safety and welfare of our staff are very important to us. We are committed to running the company to high ethical, legal and professional standards. Broadview have completed a first-class job to ensure that the solar heat entering our building is controlled and the light coming through the windows is not the source of glare on computer screens.”
