Strato Paulownia Shutters

Paulownia is prized by shutter makers for being remarkably light without sacrificing strength, which means even large panels stay easy to open, close and tilt, and put far less strain on their hinges over years of daily use.

That same lightness makes Strato a practical choice anywhere you want generously sized shutters — wide windows, tall panels or multi-panel doors — without the bulk and weight of a heavier hardwood.

Alongside its light weight, Paulownia is naturally stable, resisting the warping, twisting and swelling that can affect other timbers as temperature and humidity change through the seasons. Panels stay straight and true, so louvres continue to open and close smoothly for years.

Every Strato shutter is finished with a smooth painted surface, available in pure white, off-white, cream or a custom stain to match your interior, and fitted with stainless steel hinges for lasting, corrosion-free performance.

At Shutters Factory, we take great pride in manufacturing our Strato paulownia shutters with the utmost care for our clients. We understand that our clients are making an investment in their homes and we strive to provide products that not only meet but exceed their expectations. All of our shutters are manufactured in line with British and European safety requirements for plantation shutters, and are designed to be safe and child-friendly.

We also place a great emphasis on craftsmanship and premium materials, so that our clients can enjoy their shutters for many years to come. Our team take great care at every stage, from selecting quality Paulownia timber to precision cutting, painting and assembly.

Every Strato shutter is made to measure for your exact window, following a free, no-obligation home survey to confirm sizes, colours and finish. Because each set is built to order rather than off a shelf, typical UK lead times run to around 10-12 weeks, subject to survey.

Installation is included in your quote and carried out by our own professional fitting team, so there's nothing extra to arrange and nothing left for you to do beyond choosing your finish.

Strato's light weight, warp-resistant stability and smooth painted finish make it especially well suited to family rooms, nurseries and modern living spaces, where a refined look needs to stand up to everyday life.

Choose from pure white, off-white, cream or a custom stain, and pair with your preferred louvre size and tilt style for the balance of light, privacy and airflow that suits your room.
