Hunter Douglas’ Duette Architella honeycomb shades, takes energy conservation to a whole new level. The patented honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb design forms three air pockets to dramatically reduce heat flow at the window. If installed in every window of every American home, these shades have the potential to cut our annual energy consumption by 2½%. That may not sound like much, but it’s the equivalent of a 33% increase in fuel mileage for all passenger cars on U.S. roads — which would save about 450 million barrels of oil annually and reduce CO2 emissions by almost 200 million tons!
Also impressive is Hunter Douglas’ corporate commitment to minimizing their impact on the environment through an aggressive plan to reduce energy consumption by 15%, water usage by 40% and overall carbon emissions by 20% over a three-year period.
