Craftsmanship Matters: The Manufacturing Process Behind Our Premium Patio Awnings

In the world of external shading systems, where quality meets innovation, Caribbean Blinds has been a pioneer for over 35 years. Our recently extended production facility in Sudbury, Suffolk, is the birthplace of bespoke, made-to-order patio awnings that redefine outdoor living. Craftsmanship is not just a word for us – it’s the essence of our commitment to delivering excellence.

From extrusions to elegance

Every one of our products begins its journey with the careful cutting of the extrusions, to the confectioning of the materials, to the assembly of the components and commissioning of electronics. It’s not just a mechanical process – our highly-skilled team takes pride in transforming raw materials into the building blocks of your dream patio awning.

Life-long guarantee

Designed, engineered and built to last a lifetime, our products are made with pride and passion by our dedicated craftsmen and state of the art machinery to exacting standards and are the very pinnacle of precision, with care, attention to detail and manufacturing finesse at every stage.

Where passion meets precision

Each product is carefully bench assembled before it is fully set up on an assembly rig to the exact requirements of your application. It’s not just about putting parts together; it’s about creating a bespoke solution that will stand the test of time.

Commissioning excellence

All motor limits are then commissioned, with transmitters and sensors configured and pitch aligned, before it is rigorously tested and signed off, certified to stringent quality standards before despatch on our own vehicles.

Why we’re different

Our luxury range of awnings provide a quick, easy and affordable solution to transform any outdoor space, making them the ideal product for both residential and commercial properties. Both practical and stylish, our retractable awnings provide instant shade and shelter and can be designed and built to each application’s exact requirements.

Our Managing Director, Stuart Dantzic, said: “Craftsmanship at Caribbean Blinds isn’t just about making products – it’s about creating experiences. Our team takes pride in producing external shading systems that redefine quality. Every one of our products are built to last a lifetime, providing you with years of hassle-free use and enhance your lifestyle. Because of this, every Caribbean Blinds patio awning comes with a fully comprehensive guarantee, for your peace of mind.”
