The Evolution Of The Vertical Blind Louvre Although they had been out for a decade, vertical blinds in the 1980's still had louvers which were glued at the top and bottom to create pockets for the hangers at the top and the weights at the bottom. The glue invariably turned yellow in the sunshine, which looked unsightly, spoiled the look of the whole blind and could come apart too easily especially at the bottom allowing the weights to drop out. By the 1990's the louvers were stitched using ordinary thread, they looked a lot better than gluing but were still not perfect with flying threads, back tacking, pin holes to let the light through and crevices in the bottom pockets to collect dust, not a good idea for someone with an allergy Now we are in the 21st Century and a weld tape in a state of the art vertical blind louvre manufacturing machine supplies superior bond-strength designed to outlast the life of the vertical blind with none of the faults of the last century. Trade blinds people who see these never want to go back to standards of the previous century and neither do their customers. The best part is there is absolutely no increase in price over the old methods and a quicker turnaround of vertical blinds.
