EverWood® Alternative Wood Blinds deliver the warmth and beauty of wood blinds without wood's vulnerabilities. Hunter Douglas's exclusive TruGrain® finish replicates authentic wood grain so convincingly that most people can't tell the difference—while the composite construction resists humidity, UV fading, and warping that damages real wood.
EverWood® exists because homeowners love the look of wood but need practical performance. Kitchens with cooking moisture, bathrooms with shower humidity, sun-drenched rooms with UV exposure—these environments challenge genuine wood blinds. EverWood® thrives where real wood struggles.
The TruGrain® finish is the key. Hunter Douglas developed this technology to reproduce authentic wood grain appearance—visible grain patterns, realistic color variations, natural-looking surface texture. The result looks like real wood to casual observation, but performs like worry-free composite material.

TruGrain® isn't just a printed pattern applied to a plastic surface. Hunter Douglas engineered this finish to replicate wood's visual depth—the way light interacts with grain, the subtle color variations across a board, the natural imperfections that make wood beautiful. The result is surprisingly convincing.
Available in a range of wood-tone finishes from light maple to dark espresso, TruGrain® matches popular wood species aesthetics. Coordinate with your existing trim, cabinetry, or furniture. The finish is consistent across slats while maintaining the natural-looking variation that makes wood attractive.
EverWood® is the go-to choice for kitchens and bathrooms where humidity rules out genuine wood. Steam from cooking, moisture from showers, splashes at sinks—EverWood® handles it all without warping or peeling. Get the wood blind aesthetic in rooms where you couldn't otherwise have it.
South and west-facing windows with intense sun exposure also benefit from EverWood®. While genuine wood can fade and dry out, EverWood®'s UV resistance maintains appearance year after year. Consider EverWood® for any room where you want wood appearance without worrying about environmental damage.
Hunter Douglas offers both \1 and EverWood® alternative wood. The choice depends on your priorities and room conditions. Both deliver the horizontal blind aesthetic; the differences are in material and performance.
Choose Parkland® when authenticity matters most—you want real basswood, ash, or cherry with natural grain you can see and feel. Choose EverWood® when practical performance matters—humidity resistance, UV stability, worry-free durability. Many Ottawa homes use both: Parkland® in living spaces, EverWood® in kitchens and baths.
