The Palette range at So Easy Blinds is a flame-retardant roller and vertical blind collection spanning 58 variants, starting from £34.57. What distinguishes it from a standard decorative roller is the FR-rated fabric throughout - a practical requirement in rental properties, commercial spaces, and any room where fire safety regulations apply. The range covers both plain roller and vertical blind formats, sharing a consistent colour library across both types.
Who it suits
The flame-retardant specification makes this range a natural fit for landlords furnishing rental properties, where FR-rated soft furnishings are increasingly expected under fire safety guidance. It also suits schools, offices, care homes, and other non-domestic settings where building regulations or risk assessments demand compliant materials.
For domestic buyers without a compliance requirement, the range still works well as a plain dimout or light-filtering roller. The colour breadth means it will slot into most decorating schemes. It is less suited to rooms requiring full blackout - the fabric is dimout or light-filtering rather than blackout, so those needing genuine darkness in a bedroom should look at a dedicated blackout roller instead.
Both roller and vertical configurations are available within the same palette, which is useful if you are furnishing a mix of standard windows and wide openings or patio doors from a consistent colour story.
The colours
58 colours available
The palette is broad and genuinely varied. Neutrals are well represented - Cream, Pearl, Calico, Biscotti, Sand, and Beige cover the warm white to biscuit territory, while Concrete, Grey, Charcoal, and Iron provide the cooler greyed-out tones that suit contemporary interiors. Blues span from the pale Glacier Blue and Sky through mid-tone Denim to deep Teal and Dark Blue. Accent colours include Desert Sage and Spring (greens), Copper (a warm red-orange), Dijon (a mustard yellow), Iris (a violet), and Baby Lavender - enough variety that co-ordinating with an existing room palette is realistic rather than aspirational.
Twenty-seven variants carry a premium tag, meaning they are priced above the base from-price. Sixteen further finishes exist beyond the sample listed here, so the full range is wider still. The vertical variants mirror most of the roller colours, though Baby Lavender, Beige, and Dark Blue appear only in the vertical format within the listed sample.
Price by your dimensions
Made to measure from £34.57. Check So Easy Blinds for the price at your exact window size.
The from-price of £34.57 sits at a budget-friendly entry point for a flame-retardant made-to-measure blind. Premium variants carry a higher from-price, so the final cost depends on which colour you choose as much as on your window dimensions. Sizes outside standard dimensions are rounded up to the nearest standard size, which is worth accounting for if your window falls between common measurements.
How it compares
Against a standard non-FR roller at similar dimensions, you are paying a modest premium for the flame-retardant rating. For settings where FR compliance is required, that premium is non-negotiable and the Palette range is a straightforward choice. For a private homeowner with no compliance obligation, a wider decorative roller fabric collection might offer more textured or patterned options that this plain-weave range does not.
If thermal performance is the main priority - say, for a draughty single-glazed window or a north-facing room - a honeycomb or cellular blind would outperform any plain roller fabric on insulation. The Palette FR range is not positioned around thermal performance; it is a solid, practical FR fabric available in an unusually wide colour selection.
The availability of matching vertical variants in the same palette is a minor practical advantage over ranges that only offer roller format - useful for open-plan spaces where a patio door and adjacent window need to match without a colour compromise.
