Industry Trends and Drivers:

• Smart Home Revolution Reaching Window Treatments:

As for other parts of the frame, window coverings have also evolved from ordinary manual window coverings to smart window covering systems that can be integrated into the smart home ecosystem and controlled by smart phone apps, smart speakers, and other home automation products. Hunter Douglas created its own smart technology years ago called PowerView, which allows the program of blinds to rise and fall at sunrise and sunset and throughout the day with the position of the sun. PowerView supports Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit. IKEA has entered the smart blinds market, providing low-cost motorized smart blinds for their customers who have an interest in home automation. The Swedish furniture company sold hundreds of thousands of these in the first year. Other companies that provide motorization for window coverings, such as the French firm Somfy, provide motors for window covering brands, allowing smart window coverings to be available from all window covering brands. Developers of luxury apartments have also begun to include motorized window blinds as a standard amenity, providing convenience, as owners will not have to deal with window-blind cords or have to open hard-to-reach windows.

• Energy Efficiency Mandates Driving Thermal Window Treatments:

Worldwide building codes to reduce energy consumption are becoming stricter. California's Title 24 building energy efficiency standards include regulations on window coverings for their impact on heating and cooling loads. Cellular shades, also known as honeycomb shades, trap air in pockets, reducing the loss of energy through windows by up to 40% during winter and by the same amount during summer. The U.S. Department of Energy says window coverings can cut energy costs by 10-25% of a home's heating and cooling bills with proper use. European codes, including German Passivhaus standards, have long addressed this by including window treatment standards. Australian houses that experience hot summer conditions are increasingly using external blinds and shutters that block solar gain before the sun's energy strikes the windows. Dubai's building code enforced the use of a reflective window covering to reduce the heat and glare. The extreme weather in the Middle East has pushed manufacturers to produce triple cell shades with higher R-values, reflective material that reflects heat rather than absorbs it, and blackout fabrics that block solar heat gain.

• Renovation and Remodeling Boom:

Instead, owners have made home improvements, as the pandemic reshaped the way people viewed their homes, spending more time at home and focusing more on how their homes functioned. In the 1990s, Americans spent billions on renovations and upgrades for their homes. Window treatments became the second-largest segment of the home improvement market. Shows on HGTV popularized the idea of replacing basic window coverings with more stylish or visually appealing alternatives. Kitchens and bathrooms may have window treatments added as finishing touches to remodels. Home offices are a trend creating demand for light filtering treatments to reduce glare without darkening the home office too much for video calls. Millennial buyers looking to purchase older homes are buying these homes and using window treatments to add their personal touch as well as to address issues with energy efficiency. Interior designers also have stated that clients are setting aside funds to customize window treatments. As the "staycation" trend fuels the desire to make home feel like a resort, plantation shutters, roman shades, and layered window treatments gain popularity.

• Commercial Real Estate Demanding Advanced Solutions:

Window treatments for office buildings, hotels, hospitals, and other commercial buildings are subject to different requirements than residential buildings. Corporate office buildings get motorized window blinds. These blinds merge into the building management system. They automatically adjust all day. They manage daylighting. They reduce glare on computer screens. Though studies show that natural lighting improves productivity and morale, uncontrolled sunlight can distract workers in addition to leading to problems regarding excessive air conditioning use. In Toronto, Seattle and Melbourne, entire office building facades are now (or can be) covered with automated blinds, offering meaningful energy efficiency. Hotels also use them as blackout shades that offer maximum light control, combined with motorized sheers that allow visibility while providing privacy during the day. This is a commonly recommended combination for hospitality designers, and medical facilities require total blackout. Motorized controls eliminate the risk of strangulation by cords. Motorized window coverings can be easily operated by those with limited mobility. Retail stores use specialty window films and blinds that reduce UV exposure to product but maintain an attractive display. Due to the need for durability and low maintenance in commercial situations, higher quality materials and motorized systems may be used to avoid wear from frequent hand use.
