Cuba Patio Awning – Real Homes Best of the Best!

For the second year running, Caribbean Blinds has won at the national Real Homes Awards with our Cuba Patio Awning, the pinnacle of our innovative folding arm awning range, crowned the best of the best in ‘The Great Outdoors’ category.

Each year the Real Homes Awards attracts hundreds of entries across 15 categories, unveiling and celebrating the most inspiring ideas and reviewing the must-have home products. The entries are scrutinised by an esteemed panel of judges who make the final decisions.

The Real Homes expert judging panel commented: “The Cuba Awning has everything you need to turn your patio into a sanctuary away from it all. As well as providing all important shade on the sunniest days, its options including infrared heating which means it can create shelter year-round making your garden another room to enjoy, even in chillier weather. It can be remote controlled but also has weather sensors and will retract if it senses damaging winds.”

Earlier this year, we enjoyed a double win at the Family Business of the Year Awards 2021, taking home the East and East Anglia Business of the Year and Homes and Gardens Business of the Year awards. We’ve also been named as finalists in two categories at the Growing Business Awards 2021 – ‘Consumer Business of the Year’ and ‘Family-Owned Business of the Year’ and will find out if we’ve been successful later in the year at the awards ceremony in November.
