Zip Blind is the general category name of such blinds. They are also commonly known as Zip Track Blinds, Track Guided Blinds, Track System Blinds, Zip Track and etc.

The side channel tracks hold the blinds in place to prevent flapping under high wind conditions.

And Zip Blinds are motorised for easy, seamless operation.

Yes, by choosing at least 1% openness sunscreen mesh fabric, the zip blinds can retain about 95%-99% aircon cool air.

Definitely so.

Take a $1.5M condo for example. Assume the balcony is 2.5m length by 1.5m width, which works out to be 40 sq ft floor area for the balcony.

If the whole condo floor area was 1000 sq ft, that balcony space would have cost about $60k, which is a pretty expensive outdoor space being put to waste. If your balcony is larger, it will have cost even more!

By investing in the Zip Blind, you now get to “enclose” the outdoor balcony and extend your indoor living space, which now makes it more worthwhile for the additional space.

Zip Blind is the general category name for such blinds. (Other common names include Zip Track Blinds, Zip Track, Track-Guided Blinds, Windproof Blinds and etc.)

Ziptrak (without the ‘c’) is a brand that hails from Australia, alongside with Zipscreen.

There are many other brands from different vendors, just like DirectZip™ is our own in-house brand, you might have heard of other brands such as SHYZIP® from Japan.

All of which falls under the “Zip Blinds” general category for such outdoor blinds.

The Zip Blinds use a special patented Zip fastener system to secure the blind fabric onto the side tracks. 

This setup allows the blind to roll up and down smoothly and still prevent the blind from flapping under wind.

Hence, Zip Blinds are also known as Windproof Blinds.
