Improve your summer at home with Pollergen blinds. Between March to September, the pollen count rises, which really impacts the quality of life for those with hay fever. Whilst there are plenty of ways such as anti-histamines, air filters, and steroids to help curb the reactions, have you considered how you could also add ways to tackle the pollen in your home?
Thanks to Louvolite® The Shutter Studio are able to offer an incredible and unique range of fabrics that have been developed to tackle pollen coming into the home called Pollergen®.
To save you from researching “is the pollen count high today?” and keep you from suffering, even within your own home, we have the perfect solution to help you get through those annoying summer pollen days.
Pollergen® has been developed to capture and neutralise pollen, effectively reducing the effects of hay fever in the home. The blinds themselves have been tested by the National Pollen and Aerobiology Research Unit, which found that the blinds are able to reduce the amount of pollen coming into the home by 50%. The British Allergy Foundation has also given its seal of approval so you can believe that these are the real deal!

If you suffer from hayfever, like many of us here at The Shutter Studio, here are some top tips from the NHS;
- put Vaseline around your nostrils to trap pollen
- wear wraparound sunglasses to stop pollen from getting into your eyes
- shower and change your clothes after you’ve been outside to wash pollen off
- stay indoors whenever possible
- keep windows and doors shut as much as possible
- vacuum regularly and dust with a damp cloth
- buy a pollen filter for the air vents in your car and a vacuum cleaner with a special HEPA filter
