Ellipse 43 – Our New and Improved Fabric Pocket Hembar

Ellipse 43 – Our New and Improved Fabric Pocket Hembar

Ellipse 43 is the ultimate solution for sleek and smooth roller blinds. This new fabric pocket hembar is ideal for motorised blinds and recessed blinds due to its unique shape and slim profile.

Keep reading to find out the benefits of this game-changing new bottom bar, and why it has replaced our previous ‘PK’ hembar.

Why choose Ellipse 43?

Ellipse 43 is our most discreet hembar to date. The fabric pocket means that at a glance there is no visible separation between the fabric and the hembar.

Ellipse 43 gets its name from its unique ellipse shape, which is ideal for blinds being fitted within a blind box. The bar within is 43mm high, and a slim 11mm deep, so it’s easy to tuck away.

Ellipse 43 features sleek, light grey end caps that sit flush against your fabric. This means that from front on there are no visible end caps to spoil the appearance of your blind.

The weight of Ellipse 43 ensures that your blind fabric hangs flat and your bottom bar sits straight, regardless of the width.

This hembar weighs 460 g/m, that’s 110% heavier than ‘PK’, and 92% heavier than our Type 1 round aluminium bottom bar.

For narrow blinds, extra weight can be added to the hembar to ensure smooth operation even on smaller blinds. This can increase the overall weight to a substantial 1.43kg/m to help the smooth running of motorised blinds.

As of August 17th 2021, Ellipse 43 will be replacing our previous ‘PK’ hembar (a lightweight fabric pocket hembar with open edges) entirely. ‘PK’ hembar will no longer be available from this date onwards.

If you request a fabric pocket hembar you will be quoted on Ellipse 43, which our sales team will make sure you are aware of. ‘PK-S’ hembar will still be available, but Ellipse 43 will be our standard fabric pocket hembar going forwards.

We think this will be a great improvement to our blind systems. If you have any questions or concerns don’t hesitate to get in touch.
