Recognised, Tested, and Certified
For asset management and procurement teams, evidence matters. Flutter Shutter™ is supported by independent testing and recognised industry accreditation, so that you can specify it with confidence.
Built for Retrofit at Scale
Replacing windows across a portfolio is expensive, slow, and often impractical, particularly when the stock includes period or protected buildings. Flutter Shutter™ takes a different route.
Because the system fits internally and leaves existing windows in place, it is well-suited to large programmes where speed, cost control, and minimal disruption are essential.
Installation is clean and contained within the room, with no scaffolding, external works, or window removal.
Residents can remain in their homes throughout, and your teams can deliver measurable outcomes across many properties without lengthy void periods.

Housing Associations
Registered Social Landlords

The Benefits
-
Improve EPC ratings
A BRE-awarded SAP Rating and U-Values support a stronger energy performance score across your stock.
-
Reduce heat loss
The thermal roller blind traps an insulating layer of air between the glass and the blind, slowing heat loss that drives up demand.
-
Save tenants money
Lower heat loss means lower bills, helping you address fuel poverty and improve resident outcomes.
-
Comparable to triple glazing
Independent testing confirms thermal performance in line with modern glazing, without replacing a single window.
-
Address overheating
Adjustable plantation shutters provide effective solar shading, helping manage summer overheating in line with growing climate resilience requirements.
-
Complies with Approved Document F
Because the system is non-intrusive and tenants retain full use of their windows, ventilation provision can be maintained in line with the requirements of Approved Document F.
-
Preserve heritage stock
With no change to external appearance, Flutter Shutter™ is ideal for conservation areas and listed properties, subject to the necessary approvals.
-
Minimise tenant disruption
Internal installation with no window removal keeps homes livable and programmes moving.
A Proven, Practical Choice
Window replacement is rarely the most efficient route to better thermal performance, especially across mixed and ageing stock.
Flutter Shutter™ offers a recognised, evidence-led alternative that improves comfort, supports EPC uplift, and helps you meet decarbonisation targets, all while keeping costs and disruption to a minimum.
Our team understands the demands of social housing retrofit, from funding compliance to resident liaison, and we will support you at every stage of specification and delivery.
Government Funding Opportunities
Flutter Shutter™ may be suitable for inclusion in various retrofit and energy-efficiency programmes, subject to scheme requirements and eligibility.
Flutter Shutter™ is installed under PAS2030 certification, is TrustMark registered, and holds a BRE-awarded SAP Rating recognised within RdSAP, it is well positioned for consideration within funded retrofit and decarbonisation initiatives.
Eligibility, available routes, and the level of any support will always depend on the specific scheme, the property, and the wider package of measures proposed.
Our team can talk you through how Flutter Shutter™ might fit within your current and planned programmes, and provide the evidence, U-Value data, and documentation needed to support your funding and compliance requirements.
Flutter Shutter™ holds approval under two government-backed schemes:
