Unlike any other product on the market, Ziptrak® Interior is an internal blind that offers complete block out. When Ziptrak® Interior is closed it offers 99% blockout from light. This is the highest level of blockout achievable for an Internal Blind. Some light can still show around the edges of product such as where window sills are not level. This can be especially obvious once your eyes adjust to the low levels of light. This makes it the perfect product for creating dark spaces for children or shift workers to sleep in, or even darkening home theatre rooms. No other internal product will darken a room like Ziptrak® Interior.
Similar to a Roller Blind, Ziptrak® Interior rolls up and down the window and has a sleek, modern look. Ziptrak® Interior uses side channels, a top pelmet and a bottom bar to ensure there are no gaps and the light is blocked from every angle. This also creates a barrier of insulation between your room and the outside world, allowing your home to stay cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
With no cords or chains, it’s completely child and pet safe and can be used easily by our older generations. Simply hold the bottom bar to lift or lower. It’s so light, it can be done with a single finger.

Unique to Internal Blinds, Ziptrak® Interior uses a sealed track system. The blockout fabric is locked into the side tracks, a pelmet is used at the top and the bottom bar is fitted with a soft skirt allowing a flush finish. This means no gaps at the top, sides or bottom.
Ziptrak® Interior uses a sealed track system with no gaps. This creates a pocket of air between your room and the outside world, providing fantastic insulation and helping to reduce your energy bills. When your Ziptrak® Interior is closed, it helps to keep the cold out in winter and the heat out in summer.
The Ziptrak® Interior framing system is available in white, silver anodised and black. If these colour options don’t suit your space, the framing system can be powder coated in your colour choice for a small additional cost.
Ziptrak® Interior blinds are as light as a feather and can be operated with ease. Simply lift the bottom bar up or down and the blind will stop at any height. It’s so light, it can be done with a single finger. We do suggest operating the blind from the centre to ensure it rolls evenly.
Ziptrak® Interior can also be motorised.
With no cords or chains, Ziptrak® Interior is completely child and pet safe.
No other Interior Blind blocks out light better than Ziptrak® Interior. The track guided system secures the blind material within vertical side tracks, preventing light from entering through gaps. An enclosed pelmet at the top provides a seal, preventing both air and light from escaping as easily as a standard roller blind.

Yes, Ziptrak® Interior blinds are excellent for insulation. As they use a tracking system with no gaps, Ziptrak® Interior creates a temperature barrier between the window and your room. This allows Ziptrak® Interior to have superior insulation properties to lower your energy bills, reduce your environmental impact and make your space more comfortable.

The hood of the Ziptrak® Interior helps to block out the light. Without the hood, the Ziptrak® Interior will not be a complete block out product, defeating it’s purpose.
A Ziptrak® Interior blind can be mounted to almost any window support structure. Common surfaces include timber, gyprock and plasterboard. Ziptrak® Interior blinds can be installed in the reveal or face fixed.
Blocking out light is a difficult challenge since even the smallest crack of light can look very obvious once your eyes adjust to low light conditions. Also different installation surfaces can dramatically change how effective the blinds can be especially where the bottom sill is out of level or bowed, which is common when they are made of timber.
Our expectation is that Ziptrak Blinds provide very high levels of block out so a person can comfortably sleep during the day. We cannot achieve 100% (Zero light) conditions.
Ziptrak & Stan Bond have worked together to have a number of adds-on items which are sometimes required after initial installation to improve the light block in specific situations.
The most significant light seepage is caused by the reflection of light coloured fabrics and the headbox. As such customers are recommended to have black box & channel along with dark colours fabrics where high levels of blackout are required.
