Every innovation we introduced this year started with simple questions from the field. How can cordless blinds feel smoother and safer. How do we simplify installation for tilt-and-turn windows. How do we integrate intelligence without adding complexity.
Balanced Roller brought intuitive, cordless control shaped for comfort and safety.
Smart Frame turned feedback from European partners into a clean, click-in solution for tilt-and-turn windows.
The Wired Motors concept created one intelligent platform that connects seamlessly with modern smart home and building systems.
These advances were built through collaboration. Listening. Understanding. Designing with purpose. Each one created to work quietly in the background of everyday life.
A highlight of 2025 was the global debut of Absolute Silence at R&T Asia in Shanghai. It received the Best of the Best Innovation Award 2025, a moment made possible by the many hands involved. Engineers refining early prototypes. Partners giving honest feedback. Teams aligning across countries and disciplines.
Throughout the year, we met many of you at IWCE in Florida, R&T Asia in Shanghai and the Sun Shading Expo in Indianapolis. At IFA Berlin, Motionblinds joined Samsung on stage to explore the role of smart shading in connected living.
These gatherings mattered not for the spotlight, but for the shared insights. The open conversations. The understanding of what truly matters in your markets and projects.
Your input guided the direction of our collections in 2025. Many of you expressed a desire for interiors that feel grounded, natural and calm. This shaped the materials, colours and textures we introduced this year.
The Bamboo Earth range added warm tactility to venetian blinds.
New flame-retardant fabrics brought soft, practical finishes to commercial environments.
A refreshed Roman collection introduced gentle movement and balanced luxury with Trevira CS and Oeko-Tex certified materials.
Creative Director Catharina Idema describes the shift.
“People want spaces that feel calm and human. Materials play a crucial role. This year we focused on textures and tones that bring balance and comfort.”
These collections were created with that intention. Warmth. Lightness. Harmony.
One of the defining moments was the opening of of the Coulisse Campus in Enter. The 22,500 m² building sets the foundation for a future 70,000 m² hub designed to bring all teams together in one inspiring place.
Designed by Piuarch with Erwin Kleinsman Architects, the architecture feels calm and precise. A façade of hand laid bricks gives the building a textile like rhythm, while a landscape created by ODIN connects it naturally to the surrounding countryside. Inside, an indoor garden brings daylight deep into the workspace.
At the core of phase one is a next generation smart logistics environment. The fully operational AS/RS system handles long length components with accuracy and ease, improving flow and strengthening service for partners worldwide. Supported by a new warehouse management platform, it increases consistency and real time visibility across the chain.
The next phases will introduce an automated high bay warehouse, expanded fabric storage and dedicated wellbeing spaces. In time, all Dutch teams will work together on one cohesive campus built for creativity, collaboration and long term growth.
As we enter 2026, our focus turns to preparing for R&T Stuttgart 2027, the most important global stage for window coverings. Concepts, materials and experiences are already taking shape. The aim is clear. To share a vision built not only by our teams, but through the insights and conversations we share with you.
Founder Christiaan Roetgering reflects on this direction.
“Stuttgart is more than a trade fair. It is our moment to show a vision shaped with our partners. We are preparing something bold, beautiful and forward looking.”
Thank you for being part of 2025. For your trust. Your collaboration. Your ideas.
Together, we continue shaping smart window coverings that feel effortless, responsible and beautifully made.
