Any stains can be addressed by removing only the affected fabric, which can also be washed in a washing machine. ■ Fabric Lineup From modern to natural styles, choose the perfect image for your window. It offers a wide range of light-filtering patterns, from soft light to complete blackout and flame-retardant options. ■ Recipient of Numerous Prestigious Awards It has received special awards from the Kids Design Award for the safety of its cordless design, as well as design awards in Germany.

Roll screens that cover windows with just a single piece of fabric, without drapes or pleats, are the simplest window treatment products. We propose functional roll screens that are not only beautifully simple but also thoughtfully engineered for everyday living. ■ Limited Premium Fabrics Because it is a simple product, we have focused on the texture of the fabric. From the countless fabrics available worldwide, we have carefully selected about 120 types specifically for Japan. From this premium lineup, you are sure to find the perfect piece just for you. ■ Operation Types to Meet Various Needs In addition to the versatile "chain operation," we offer an intuitive "cordless type" that allows you to stop the screen at your desired position, as well as a stylish "electric type" that requires no outlet. ■ New High Light Blocking Mechanism "NORMAN Light Blocking Guide Rail Specification" A new specification has been introduced that is effective in places where you want to block light completely, such as bedrooms and conference rooms. By installing rails on both sides of the screen to block light, and equipping the surfaces that contact each rail with long mohair, it thoroughly blocks light.
