Hunter Douglas — Possibly the biggest name in the industry, Hunter Douglas has a long history of creating practical yet innovative window treatments. Founded in 1946 by the titular Hunter and a Henry Sonnenberg in Germany, by 1947 Hunter Doulgas had over 1,000 business men selling their custom-built blinds all over the US. Over the next 60 years, the German company expanded into the multi-national corporation that we know of today. They make award-winning treatments that are renowned for their light regulation and heat control, including their Silhouette®, Pirouette®, Luminette® lines.

SunGlow — A trusted Canadian manufacturer since the early 80s, SunGlow has refined their means of development and product over the last 33 years. With a commitment for environmentally responsible window treatments, SunGlow has created lasting affiliations with such esteemed associations as the Canadian Green Building Council and the U.S. Green Building Council, as well as a variety of construction and decoration companies across North America. All of the fabrics used in their product have a certification from GreenGuard or Oeko-Text. Like Hunter Douglas, they’re known for their award-winning treatments, especially their Pure Screen, which uses a fabric that purifies the air.

Shade-O-Matic — With one extra year on SunGlow, Shade-O-Matic has been in the business for the last 34 years. Though based out of Toronto, it is a leading Canadian manufacturer of window treatments and is a part of the Hunter Douglas Group of Companies. They have also invested in ecologically responsible products with their line of GreenProtect™ products. They’re also a leading designer of innovative window solutions, including their One-Piece-Angle Track®, which is a practical yet sophisticated choice for tricky bay windows.
