Why choose Transparent-slat curtain?
A closure designed around your needs
The polycarbonate curtain keeps the shop window exceptionally clear behind a continuous closure. After measuring, our teams define how the panels, guides, operating system and locks should be integrated into the opening.
What makes this model different
- 92% transparency — shopfront visible 24/7
- 250 times more resistant than glass
- Dust, rain & UV protection
- Smooth & silent operation
- Ideal for luxury boutiques & pharmacies
This model is right for you if
Choose polycarbonate when the shop window must remain fully readable after the premises close.
- Premium shopfronts
- Pharmacies and illuminated shops
- Shopping centres
- Full visibility outside opening hours
Consider another solution if
Compare the other curtains when blackout, a filtered view or very open ventilation matters more than transparency.
Security designed for its use
The polycarbonate curtain body provides a continuous closure in front of the shop window while keeping the display readable. Lower locking, reinforced guidance and the operating layout are defined for the opening; on a motorised version, user-safety measures are then specified according to access conditions and the selected control method.

Frequently asked questions about Transparent-slat curtain
What is the difference between a polycarbonate curtain and a solid-slat or micro-perforated one?
The polycarbonate curtain offers crystal-clear transparency close to glass (92%): your shopfront stays fully visible 24/7, whereas solid slats black out completely and micro-perforated ones only give a translucent effect. It is the ideal choice to display your products even when the shop is closed.
Is polycarbonate really strong?
Yes. It is 250 times more resistant than glass, virtually unbreakable, and withstands break-in attempts as well as projectile impacts.
Does it protect my window display?
Yes. It protects your interior from dust, rain and UV rays, preventing the discolouration of the items on display.
Can it be motorised and made to measure?
Yes. Manual or motorised operation, made to measure to the dimensions of your opening and installed by our teams in Paris and across Île-de-France.
How quickly do you respond in the event of a breakdown?
In the event of a breakdown or a jammed curtain, our teams respond within 20 minutes in Paris and across Île-de-France.
Which profiles and thicknesses are available for a polycarbonate curtain?
Compatible profiles and thicknesses are specified in the quote after the site survey, according to the opening dimensions and intended use.
Which motor suits the dimensions and frequency of use?
The motor type is selected according to the curtain dimensions and operating frequency, then specified in the quote after the site survey.
Which safety and locking options should be specified?
The lock, bottom-slat reinforcements, anchoring and motorisation-related devices are selected for the access and usage, then specified in the quote after the site survey.
