Purely Shutters

Unit 5, Birmingham Trade Park, Kingsbury Road, Birmingham, B24 9PS

phone: 0800 038 5311
Shutters not only look great, they're a recognised energy efficiency measure under the government's Green Deal, with an estimated £96 savings per year on a three-bedroom house (2013). In summer use shutters to keep your house cool, and in winter use them to let in natural warm light, then close them when it gets dark to retain heat in your home. It’s estimated that shutters reduce heat loss from windows by 25-50 per cent, so they're a very sensible investment.
 
At Purely Shutters we care about the environment and ethics. All our woods are from sustainable sources: we buy cedar from managed forests where a tree is replanted for everyone felled; our laminated wooden shutters come from parasol, a fast-growing farmed wood; and our Warwick range is our most eco-friendly, because no trees have been felled for them - rather the laminate is produced from waste off-cuts not useable elsewhere.
 
Purely Shutters' products allow you to maintain privacy, especially important if you live in close proximity to your neighbours. But because you can open the slats during daytime, you'll get maximum light in your rooms, which is important because natural light is vital for our health and wellbeing.

For a stunning, hardwearing dining room floor, choose from Kährs' stylish, sustainable wood products.
 
Kährs' award-winning range includes over 140 wood floor designs, made in Sweden from sustainable timber and featuring a nature-friendly construction.  
 
Designs span from traditional rustic one-strip boards and parquet patterned designs, to simple even-grained floors. Many feature on-trend stained finishes, as well as hand-crafted surface treatments, including brushing, sawing, smoking, handscraping and bevel details.
 
Commitment to the environment is reflected throughout Kährs' production and floors are constructed using a multi-layered method, based on the original ‘parquet’ design invented and patented by Kährs in 1941. As well as providing greater stability, it also uses resources in the most nature-friendly way.
 
Floors also feature Kährs Woodloc® joint, which promotes a fast glueless installation and eliminates gapping throughout the lifetime of the floor.
