WHY CHOOSE FLUTTER SHUTTER™?
The benefits are endless with this exciting new energy and cost saving innovation.
Flutter Shutter™ has undergone 8 years of crucial product design, concept testing and fully working prototype testing, carried out by Liverpool John Moores University and BRE (Building Research Establishment) who continue to partner with Flutter Shutter™ as part of their ongoing research and development programme centred around innovative energy solutions.
Flutter Shutter™ has been proven through vigorous testing to save up to 70% of energy/heat loss escaping through windows, coupled with the aesthetically pleasing nature of the product, it’s set to be one of the leading energy measure solutions across the UK.
In January 2023 Flutter Shutter™ was awarded a full UK Patent by the UKIPO. This is something we are immensely proud of and there is nothing else like it on the market.
Flutter Shutter™ is made up of a combination of MDF covered in extruded polypropylene coating and 97% natural wood harvested from managed forests in New Zealand and Australia, which are environmentally friendly and approved for fire safety.
Flutter Shutter™ fits perfectly into all windows including bay windows.
Flutter Shutter™ is defined as ‘Safe By Design’ and is fully compliant with the law on safety standards for blinds. We are also fully compliant with the following standards
BS EN 13120:2009+AI:2014 – Internal blinds – Performance requirements including safety

2022 statistics show that there are currently 6.5m family homes in the UK, living in fuel poverty and this is set to rise! If the UK is to reach its carbon Net-Zero target by 2050, this statistic needs to change. Our philanthropic responsibility, as a business, ensures our product will give back to local communities and society as a whole, by reducing fuel poverty.
By helping people to get out of the vulnerable/low-income sector by reducing household bills, Flutter Shutter™ provides greater warmth during the colder seasons.
From a rentability perspective, Flutter Shutter™ is an aesthetically pleasing, easy to clean product that increases the quality of living for tenants and home owners. It also has significant benefits for commercial builds and businesses alike.
Not only does Flutter Shutter™ look the part, but the simple feeling of warmth can have such a positive impact on parents, children and a family’s overall mental, emotional and physical wellbeing.
