Welcome to Louvretie
From blinds that Sway, to blinds that Stay.
From the first pair of metal tiebacks fabricated in the garage, a small batch was manufactured for a college engineering project.
It became clear that a more suitable material was required and that led to the design of the products available today. “ It is a continually rewarding learning curve”, David Explains. “From sketches on a notepad, to learning about Intellectual property, tool making, injection moulding, pricing and marketing, I feel very fortunate to have seen the project get off the ground, and I feel proud to have done my best with the resources I had then also to have had the chance to work with some great people”.
“An initial loan taken on my property enabled me to manufacture tooling, produce the first batch and secure the grant of a patent. After several months of material trials and Blind safety testing approvals I was in a reasonable position to contact retailers and manufacturers of blinds throughout the U.K.”
” Louvretie U.K. ltd was registered in October 2008 was also made available at www.louvreties.com as well as Amazon, Etsy and eBay, and then the quest began to improve and develop the product so that it could be used by any vertical blind, in any setting, anywhere in the world, selling direct to consumer”
