Window treatments for bathrooms
In the bathroom, moisture resistance is an absolute must. Not all window treatments are suitable: wooden blinds and fabric curtains can develop mould or warping from constant exposure to steam and moisture. Aluminium venetian blinds are the safest choice: they don't rust and are easy to clean. Roller blinds with moisture-resistant fabric (polyester or PVC) are a stylish alternative.
Tips
Choose aluminium
Aluminium venetian blinds withstand moisture, don't rust, and are easy to clean with a damp cloth.
Avoid wood
Wooden blinds and fabric curtains are not suitable for the bathroom. They can warp, discolour or develop mould from constant moisture exposure.
Ventilation
Ensure good ventilation in the bathroom. This extends the lifespan of your window treatment and prevents mould.

DiscoverFrequently asked questions
Which window treatment is suitable for the bathroom?
Aluminium venetian blinds and roller blinds with moisture-resistant fabric are most suitable. Avoid wooden blinds and fabric curtains.
Why are wooden blinds not suitable for the bathroom?
Wooden blinds absorb moisture, which can cause warping, cracking or mould. In the bathroom there is constant exposure to steam and moisture. Choose aluminium blinds instead, which offer the same style but are fully moisture-resistant.
