The Bosa Cream XL Blackout Cassette Blind is our Total Blackout solution to cast your room into complete darkness. The barrel and blackout fabric are neatly enclosed within the aluminium headbox and side channels ensure the edge of the fabric stays in place. As a result, this blind creates a light omitting seal, blocking light from entering the room.
Our total blackout cassette blinds are perfect for any room you are looking to banish daylight. From Bedrooms to Home Cinema Rooms, our cassette blinds will provide you with complete darkness all year round.
The Bosa Cream fabric is a Cream coloured blackout fabric made from Polyester. It is operated by a nickel chain that protrudes through the bottom of the headbox. This cassette blind can go to a maximum width of 3450mm.
Due to the nature of the light omitting seal created by this blackout blind, windows must be closed while this blind is down. Opening a window behind the blind could cause a vacuum resulting in the fabric being sucked from the side channels and resulting in damage to the blind.
Available in either a White or Black hardware finish full technical specifications can be found in the Geeky Stuff section below.

Technical Specifications
Our Total Blackout cassette blinds are designed first and foremost to provide total darkness in a room by creating a sealed unit in or around the window.
To fit this blind you will be required to drill multiple holes, not just into the masonry you’re fitting to, but into the headbox and side channels themselves as they don’t come pre-drilled. The reason for this is that you will need to ensure the entire blind sits squarely within a recess or against the wall, so you will need to decide where to specifically screw the blind to the wall.
The cassette blind is comprised of an aluminium headbox fascia in which the fabric on a barrel is held. Aluminium side channels run from top to bottom and are attached to the headbox. The fabric has fabric retaining pips attached to it and these pips are what hold the fabric in the side channels.
Important: When the blind is in operation the window must be shut. Failure to close the window when the fabric is anywhere but fully rolled up can cause the fabric to be pulled out of the side channels. This can damage the fabric or the side channel and the warranty will be voided. Do not operate this blind with an open window. If you install this blind on behalf of someone else, please inform them.
At the bottom of the fabric is the bottom bar that has a pile seal on the bottom of it. This helps to form a barrier against light at the bottom of the window when it sits on the bottom fixing strip.
The headbox measures 105mm high and 95mm deep.
The side channels measure 55.3mm wide and if recess fitted, the side channels are 29.5mm deep, and if face fitted, they are 25.2mm deep. Please note, recess-fit side channels cannot be used for face fitting, and vice-versa as they are different.
The bottom fixing strip is 25mm tall and 21mm deep and will match the chosen hardware colour. This L-shaped metal strip is there to allow the bottom bar to sit just in front of it, thus creating another barrier between the window and the room.
The hardware is available in white or black and this blind is operated by a nickel chain that can be on the left or right side of the blind.
Total Blackout is a brand name for our cassette blinds which means we expect total darkness for standard use, however, we are not able to guarantee absolute darkness due to differences in installation, location and light direction. Every care and attention has been made to engineer this type of blind to give maximum levels of darkness.

With our Right-Size Guarantee we will replace a blind with the correct size if you get the measurements wrong when you order. Please note, the Right Size Guarantee excludes Cassette Blinds.
Why do I need this Insurance?

With our Right-Size Guarantee we will take that blind back, remake it to the correct size for you and send it back, saving you from having to buy a totally new blind! The Right Size Guarantee covers all made-to-measure blinds and curtains except our Cassette Blinds.

Fire retardancy is a worthy feature to look out for with a window blind. A fire-retardant blind provides peace of mind, knowing that you have a product in place that will protect your loved ones. It is a high quality and safe alternative in case somebody leaves a candle on the windowsill, or you install a blind close to your hob in the kitchen. This material will only smolder if presented with a flame, and once the source of heat has been removed, it is designed to self-extinguish.
This can be added to your fabric by selecting this add-on at the checkout.
If you are unsure about whether the type of blind you are interested in is fire retardant, please speak to our customer service team.
