1. What material are the SUN-SHADE PVC Shutters made of?
Our plantation shutters are crafted from:
- Inner layer: Foam-extruded PVC for lightweight strength
- Outer layer: Hard PVC compound for extra durability
The louvres (and where needed, the top and bottom sections) are reinforced with a special
aluminium profile during extrusion, while the stiles feature a square aluminium insert for
maximum rigidity. Each shutter is finished with a UV-cured paint made for Australia’s harsh
sunlight.
💡 This means your shutters won’t warp, fade, or deteriorate easily — even in wet areas or
full sun.
2. What colours do the SUN-SHADE PVC Shutters come in?
- Standard colour: Off-white — blends beautifully with almost any décor
- Optional colours: Light cream and beige (on request)
- Custom colours: Available through consultation
💡 You can choose a timeless shade or coordinate with your home’s colour palette for a
seamless look.
3. What framing options are available?
We offer three precision-made frame types:
- Inside mount (recess fit): Z frame or L frame
- Outside mount (face fit): L frame
💡 The right frame ensures a perfect fit, a clean look, and smooth operation — tailored to
your window style.
4. Can the shutters be remote-controlled?
Yes — we have a custom remote-control kit for inaccessible windows or added convenience.
💡 Enjoy effortless light control without leaving your seat.
5. Do you compete on price with other suppliers?
Yes — and we have a unique advantage. We are the only company we know of in Australia
that extrudes PVC shutters locally. Most competitors only assemble imported parts.
Not only are our prices competitive — in many cases, we beat them.
💡 You get better quality, faster turnaround, and true Australian-made value for money.
6. How much will delivery cost?
Our factory is in Fountaindale, NSW 2258. Shipping costs depend on delivery distance and
package size.
💡 We keep freight costs as low as possible so your budget goes further.
