In our decentralised structure we encourage constant experimentation with our products by constantly innovating our products’ ability to play with, and manage heat and light.

We're passionate about creating new innovations that offer unique benefits to our customers and employees.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

Hunter Douglas was founded on a tradition of bringing breakthrough products to market. Today, we lead the industry in our ability to successfully develop and establish completely new product concepts.  Our unparalleled scale and vertical integration enable us to innovate products end-to-end, from materials to equipment design, from component engineering to automated custom assembly, from industrial design to installation friendly components.

We are pioneers in forming fabrics into unique designs that can trap air for superior insulation, softly diffuse incoming light, and provide privacy while preserving outside views. We foster a highly collaborative culture among our team of over 300 engineers located in R&D centres around the world where we excel at design for manufacturability and customization,.

Our top priorities are achieving the right balance of form and function, managing the quality of light entering the window, combined with the safety and ease of operation of our products.

Worldwide Distribution

Our strong distribution system is key to our business and an essential element to our marketing strategy. Our worldwide network of independent and company owned fabricators sell, manufacture and distribute our high quality products in local markets. We closely support fabricators to ensure they consistently offer the best quality and service. Sophisticated sampling, merchandising and innovative training programmes enable our fabricators to establish strong customers relationships.
