When choosing blinds and curtains, most people focus on colour, style, and light control — but increasingly, customers are also asking:
👉 “Are these fabrics safe for my home?”
At Mr Blinds, the answer is simple:
All of our fabrics meet recognised safety and quality standards, with all carrying independent certifications for chemical safety and indoor air quality.
what do fabric certifications mean?
Modern blind and curtain fabrics can be tested and certified to ensure they are suitable for indoor environments.
The two most recognised certifications you’ll see are:
- OEKO-TEX® Standard 100
→ Tests fabrics for harmful substances - GREENGUARD Certification
→ Ensures low chemical emissions for better indoor air quality
💡 In simple terms:
- OEKO-TEX looks at what’s in the fabric
- GREENGUARD looks at what the fabric releases into the air
