The Corona Contracts team recently completed a noteworthy project for the Peninsula Group at their Hinckley, Leicestershire site. Drawing on our expertise in commercial roller blinds, we designed, manufactured and efficiently installed 60 custom roller blinds to spec as part of the company’s ongoing refurbishment at the Hinckley facility. The installation was strategically carried out overnight to minimize disruption to Peninsula Group’s operations and fit perfectly with their refurbishment schedule. This was a great opportunity to showcase our commitment to flexibility, precision, and customer satisfaction. The blinds seamlessly integrated into our client’s schedule and used materials and colours specifically chosen to perfectly match the aesthetic of their interior.    

Corona Contracts recently completed a successful project for another happy client in the North West. Our team designed, produced, and installed 48 custom cubicle curtain tracks for a prominent beauty school in the region as part of their ongoing refurbishment. Our tailored design perfectly met the school’s functional needs, offering a quick and convenient way to segment the room with smooth and reliable curtain tracks. The tracks also look great, with a satin silver finish which is sympathetic to the other fixtures and fittings in the school. This project is a perfect example of our commitment to quality craftsmanship and customer satisfaction. By handling both the design and installation processes in-house, we were able to ensure seamless coordination and communication throughout the project. This minimised potential issues, kept everything on schedule and guaranteed a quality end result.  

Corona Contracts recently had the privilege of collaborating with a groundbreaking client who specializes in providing sensory support to individuals with special needs. The client operates a unique centre that is the only facility of its kind, employing state-of-the-art lighting, visuals, and sound equipment to curate tailored sensory experiences for their service users. For this project, Corona Contracts designed, produced, and installed blackout curtains for a dedicated sensory cinema room within the client’s centre. Recognizing the importance of creating a controlled and immersive environment, our blackout curtains were meticulously crafted to spec to ensure complete light blockage and minimise external disturbances, contributing to the overall sensory enhancement of the cinema experience. Our focus on quality and customization aligned seamlessly with the client’s mission to offer a safe and comfortable space for individuals with special needs. This collaboration represents not only our dedication to manufacturing excellence but also our commitment to supporting initiatives that prioritize the well-being and inclusivity of individuals with unique sensory requirements. We are proud to have played a role in the creation of this innovative sensory cinema room and in creating the positive impact that it represents.

The team at Corona Contracts recently donated materials and labour towards the renovation of an extremely important NHS building in the local area. We are proud to have had the opportunity to support our wonderful health service and the work that they do. In support of the local haematology department, which treats serious blood cancers, we manufactured and installed 16 nr vertical blinds, 9 nr roller blinds & 6 panes of glass with technical frost film for privacy at their site on Whinney Heys Road. The new site makes it easier for people who are less able to travel to other local NHS facilities to get the treatment they need. We were delighted to receive a letter of thanks from Dr. Cahalin and the haematology department at Blackpool Teaching Hospitals for our work, which you can read below. We wish Dr. Cahalin and the team the very best with their vitally important work at Rosemere House.

Clearly there will always be a need for blackout blinds from hotels, presentation suites, lecture halls and other such buildings, but the benefits of our blackout blinds actually go far beyond simply blocking all light from entering a room. Do blackout blinds save energy? In order to block all light from entering a room, blackout blinds are built from layers of extremely tightly woven, high quality fabric. The construction of the layers is such that they work together to neutralise all light. By creating a complete barrier in front of the windows of a building, blackout blinds pose a secondary and most welcome benefit – energy saving through thermal insulation. About 30% of the heat lost from a room...
