"Designed for the way you live"--this has been Graber's motto for their blinds and window treatments as long as they've been in business. Graber's blinds and shades are well made, stylish, and energy efficient. The goal for any window treatment company is to combine form with function. These considerations are equally important when it comes to choosing a window covering.
Founded by John Graber in 1939 as The Graber Co., Springs Window Fashions has become a leader in window coverings and drapery hardware. The Graber Co. began with John Graber's invention of the drapery crane marketed as the Badger Crane, which was manufactured in Middleton, WI.
After WW II, the Graber Co. introduced traverse rods and became the first company to use nylon slides. The innovations continued and by the late 1960s, shades and verticals were added to its extensive drapery hardware line.
In 1979, Springs Industries acquired the Graber Co. because the brand name, quality window coverings were an ideal fit with its consumer product lines. This large textile manufacturer helped launch the production of Graber's pleated shades in 1983. In 1989, Springs acquired Bali, a market leader in horizontal blinds. Nanik, the premier leader in "Fine Furniture for Windows" joined Springs Window Fashions in 1995.
Springs Window Fashions embraces a philosophy of excellence called the Springs of Achievement, comprising seven values: quality, service, creativity, education, personal and family well-being, respect for history and planning for the future.
The late Joe Graber once stated that his father John started the company in 1939 without outside funding, but there was a $250 note which was paid off with "great relief." Joe Graber also recalled hearing his father boast that they would make "$4,000 the following year." Through hard work and determination, the Window Fashion Division has become an integral part of Springs' Industries $2 billion corporation.
Starting with form, their styles range from elegant Roman shades to warm woven shades and elegant honeycomb shades, as well as timeless classics like Mini blinds and vertical blinds. They remain classic and elegant, yet their designers incorporate the emerging styles and trends in home decorating.
Graber blinds also excel in terms of function. They are easy to operate and durable. Graber blinds are also energy efficient. When blinds are engineered to keep your home cool in the summers and warm in the winters, you can save on electricity and gas bills. Over time, this can add up to a considerable amount of money. Look at your Graber blinds as an investment in efficiency.
Because there are so many blind patterns and colors that are unique to this manufacturer, look for a company that offers the full line of Graber products. Graber, one of the most respected names in window treatments.
