When aiming to improve their energy efficiency, organisations might want to focus on elements of their offices such as blinds, it has been suggested by one expert, which may interest those with items like Panel Blinds.
Powermode's chief technology officer Philip Hampton has noted that the cleanliness of blinds is one thing that may have to be looked at by companies.
He stated: "Damaged insulation and draught excluders should be replaced regularly, while windows and blinds should be kept clean to boost natural light levels."
The expert also pointed out the position that blinds should be placed in to make the most effective use of sunlight.
Blinds should be angled so that the work areas within an office environment have sunlight aimed towards them, he pointed out.
Energy efficiency guidance is also available to organisations in the UK from the country's Energy Saving Trust, with homeowners potentially able to benefit from its tips.
