Why Are These Blinds Becoming So Popular, and What Are Its Benefits?
These blinds are vertical lengths of fabric materials attached to a sliding track at the top and can be controlled by a plastic wand or rope/chain. These pieces of cloth material (slats/louvres) are tied to weights at the bottom. These slats can be extended along the track to block the sunlight or nestled together to let the light enter.

The blinds can block the light or open up entirely with just the pulling of the chain/rope attached to the track. The slats will slide and open or close faster than any other type of curtain, making it faster and easier to control the light.
