The sample kit includes a physical fabric swatch for each colour across all 8 collections (28 samples in total), the 6 colour finishes of the Maanta decorative plate, and the EN 14501 certified technical data sheets for each fabric. Ideal for choosing the perfect solution for your British gardens and outdoor living spaces.
The colour of a fabric on screen is never identical to the real thing. With samples, you can feel the texture, check how transparent it is in the light of your window, and match the mounting plate to your décor before ordering a made-to-measure blind—perfectly suited to your British home.
No, the samples are yours to keep. You can use them as a reference for future orders or to match new awnings in other rooms of your home or outdoor living spaces in British gardens.
It depends on the room and how you use it: Blackout is for complete darkness (typically bedrooms). Light-filtering fabric lets in a soft, diffused light while reducing glare, ideal for offices and bathrooms. Transparent fabric maintains maximum brightness with a light level of daytime privacy, perfect for living areas and kitchens. Samples let you check the effect directly in your own space, under your own light—ideal for refining comfort in British homes, gardens and outdoor living spaces.
The EN 14501 standard classifies the performance of fabrics for solar shading. It measures light transmission, solar reflection, total solar factor (GTOT) and privacy level. Every Maanta fabric is tested and certified: laboratory data, not commercial estimates—giving you reliable performance for British gardens and outdoor living spaces.
Delivery takes just a few working days.
