What PVC shutters are best for.

PVC is the most practical material for rooms with daily moisture exposure. It won't warp, swell, or discolour over time.

Steam and humidity from cooking and washing are no problem for PVC shutters, making them a long-lasting choice in working areas of the home.

Homes in coastal NZ conditions or high-humidity regions benefit from PVC shutters' resistance to salt air and moisture.

If moisture has damaged or discoloured your current window treatments, PVC shutters offer a durable, easy-clean alternative.

Not sure if PVC shutters are right for your space?

PVC performs best in rooms where moisture is a daily factor. In dry living areas and bedrooms, wooden shutters often suit better for warmth and insulation. Your consultant will assess each room in your home and advise honestly on the right material for each one.

Frequently asked questions

Are PVC shutters good for bathrooms?

Yes. PVC is the most moisture-resistant shutter material and is specifically suited to bathrooms, ensuites, kitchens, and laundries. It won't warp, swell, or discolour from daily steam and humidity.

Do PVC shutters warp in steam?

No. PVC shutters are designed to handle the moisture and humidity levels found in bathrooms and kitchens without warping or cracking. Your consultant can confirm which specific products are rated for high-humidity environments.

What is the difference between PVC and wooden shutters?

PVC is moisture-resistant, easy to clean, and ideal for wet rooms. Wooden shutters, typically made from Basswood, offer natural warmth and better insulation and suit living areas and bedrooms. Your consultant will advise on the right material for each room.

Are PVC shutters waterproof?

PVC shutters are moisture-resistant and handle steam and humidity well. For wet areas directly adjacent to showers or baths, your consultant will advise on whether a fully waterproof product is needed.

How do you clean PVC shutters?

Wipe down with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, which can scratch the surface. Your consultant will provide specific care guidance for the finish you choose.

How long do PVC shutters last?

With normal care, PVC shutters are a long-term window treatment. The material does not degrade from moisture exposure the way wood or fabric can. Your consultant will advise on the expected lifespan for the specific product range.

Are PVC shutters as good as wooden shutters?

PVC and wooden shutters perform differently depending on the room. PVC is better for moisture-heavy rooms. Wooden shutters offer better insulation and a natural warmth that suits living areas and bedrooms. Your consultant will recommend the right material for each room in your home.
