ZipScreen
Outdoor comfort.
In greater control.
An Australian-engineered zip-channel system that keeps the screen fabric securely guided at both sides for a tauter, more controlled outdoor screen.
When an ordinary outdoor blind is not enough.
HOW IT WORKS
The difference is in the edge.
The screen fabric is held along both sides by the ZipScreen channel system. Together with the aluminium pelmet and bottom bar, this keeps the screen more securely guided and creates a cleaner, more enclosed configuration than a standard Outdoor Blind.

FAQ
What is ZipScreen and who makes it?
ZipScreen Singapore is an outdoor zip screen system designed and engineered in Australia by Rollease Acmeda — a precision window covering and automation company. The defining feature is the zip-channel locking system that seals the screen fabric edge-to-edge into aluminium side channels, preventing gaps, flapping, and wind-lift that affect conventional outdoor blinds.
Who is the ZipScreen distributor in Singapore?
VB Blind (TS Classic Pte. Ltd.) is the exclusive distributor and fabricator of ZipScreen Singapore, appointed by Rollease Acmeda Pty. Ltd. on 1 November 2020. All ZipScreen products sold in Singapore are fabricated at VB Blind’s Singapore facility.
What are the three ZipScreen operating systems?
ZipScreen comes in three systems: (1) Motorised — tubular motor (Dooya or Somfy), RF remote and smart home compatible, requires mains power. (2) Spring Boosted — manual pull-and-release with spring assist, no power needed, stop at any height using the supplied pull stick. (3) Crank System — gear-driven manual crank, stop at any height, suited to smaller widths.
Can I stop ZipScreen at any height?
Yes — all three manual systems (Spring Boosted and Crank) allow you to stop and hold the screen at any height. For the Spring Boosted system, a 1,500mm pull stick is provided to assist with higher positions. For the Crank system, a 2,000mm crank stick is supplied.
Is ZipScreen wind resistant?
Yes. The zip-channel mechanism locks the screen fabric into the aluminium side channels, preventing the fabric from being pulled or pushed by wind. VB Blind has demonstrated ZipScreen withstanding over 400kg of tensile force. For specific wind-rated specifications by installation type, contact our team.
Can ZipScreen be used indoors?
Yes. An increasingly popular use of ZipScreen in Singapore is as an interior retractable room divider — creating a soft partition between a living room and study, or between bedrooms in an open-plan layout. When retracted, the space opens up completely. When lowered, it provides privacy and a degree of acoustic separation.
What is the maximum size for a motorised ZipScreen?
Motorised ZipScreen (Dooya or Somfy): up to 4,000mm (157″) wide at up to 3,000mm height, or up to 3,000mm wide at heights up to 3,500mm or 4,000mm (subject to site conditions). Minimum width is 820mm (32″). For exact sizing confirmation, contact your VB Blind dealer.
What is the maximum size for a manual ZipScreen (Spring Boosted)?
Spring Boosted ZipScreen: up to 4,000mm (157″) wide at up to 3,000mm height, or up to 3,000mm wide at up to 3,500mm height (subject to site conditions). Minimum width is 820mm (32″). A 1,500mm pull stick per location is provided.
Has ZipScreen won any awards in Singapore?
Yes. ZipScreen was awarded the Singapore Good Design Award 2024, recognising its combination of performance, innovation, and design quality in the Singapore market.
Is there a ZipScreen catalogue available?
Yes — a ZipScreen product catalogue is available for download. Visit our ZipScreen product page at vbblind.com/products/zipscreen/ or contact us at tsc@vbblind.com.
