Dollar Curtains and Blinds celebrates over 50 years of Australian Made

Australian owned and family operated, Dollar Curtains + Blinds says it is a passionate supporter of Australia’s manufacturing industry. Since its establishment in 1967, they have been manufacturing all of their curtains, blinds and awnings locally at two large manufacturing sites located in Kilsyth, Victoria.

“We are very proud of our long-standing heritage as an Australian owned company and manufacturing locally for well over 50 years,” said Marketing Manager, Danielle Crosby.

“As the saying goes – we stick to our knitting – window coverings – and we have over 50 years of experience and expertise to do it right. We like to think and do business differently. We ignore gimmicks and distractions and stay focused on the simple things that matter the most – our customer,” Danielle said.

“We know that window coverings for a new or existing home are an investment purchase, and therefore our customers need to seek out an expert in their field to advise on the design, colour and most appropriate solution for their windows. DC+B is that expert.”

Designing and manufacturing in Australia allows our production team to maintain a high level of quality control, which ensures DC+B’s products will stand the test of time.

“Making a DC+B product requires time, materials, tools, talent, emotion, intelligence and skilful hands. We focus on what matters to our customers – a quality handcrafted product. It’s in our design DNA. Behind even the smallest details, there is a dedicated person guided by pride in a job well done,” said Danielle.

“With locally-manufactured products you can be sure of a much more ‘hands-on’ approach, resulting in a high standard of quality, more variety and better service – all vital advantages given the significant investment entailed in choosing your window coverings. Every product manufactured by DC+B goes through rigorous quality control. From fabric inspections and quality stations, throughout the production line to a final quality control station where every product is hoisted and visually inspected by our controllers to give the final go-ahead.”

With 33 stores across Australia, DC+B’s design teams can give every customer a personalised experience. Danielle Crosby explained its extensive range of fabric samples, curated choice of products and in-store displays are all there to assist customers and confidently choose the best option for their home.

 “Our success is in our network of showrooms. We can offer our customers an expert design service through a one on one consultation in the largest network of window covering stores in Australia. Our free design, measure + quote service is also a vital part of our service. We do everything in house – designing, measuring, manufacturing and installing our range of indoor and outdoor window coverings.”

“2020 may be the hardest thing our generation has ever encountered, and to succeed will require the best of us – from all of us. The need to care for and support each other has never been greater, which is why we feel so strongly about being Australian Made and Australian Owned. We are helping other Australian families to rebuild by employing and manufacturing locally. The Australian Made logo helps us portray this commitment to our customers,” said Danielle.
