Many shutters on the market are either vinyl-wrapped or hollow-vinyl products. Both have their own attractive characteristics, but they don’t compare to Wholesale Shutter Company’s poly units.
For the first part of our special blog, we talk about the key areas where our poly window treatment products stand above vinyl shutters:
Insulation
Vinyl is a good insulator, but our material is far superior. Our poly shutters are 7/16-inch thick, which helps significantly reduce heat transfer. In comparison, most vinyl-wrapped units are only 1/16-inch thick.
The insulating quality of our poly shutters is a big deal in terms of energy efficiency. Our units can help keep your rooms naturally cooler in the summer and pleasantly warmer in the winter. With a much comfortable indoor climate, you may save more money on your HVAC expenses.
Colorfastness
At Wholesale Shutter Company, we coat our poly units with paint that stops ultraviolet (UV) rays. When used as exterior window shutters, they can retain their original hue and stay vibrant for a long time. That means you can choose a rich color without worrying about fading.
As interior shutters, they can protect your belongings from the sun’s UV light without quickly discoloring. Nature would ultimately win, but our products would take many years before they begin to look old.
Water and Fire Resistance
Made from solid poly components, our custom shutters are low-maintenance and safe. They may be ideal for high-moisture areas because they’re impervious to humidity. In case of a fire, they slow the spread of flames to give you more time to escape your property or to extinguish the blaze.
