Impossible to say, we have no idea what they're made from.

They are fabric blinds from Hilary's Blins almost 9 years ago. I have emailled Hilary's but no answer yet received.

Suggest entering 'cleaning vertical blinds' in Google, and find loads of links to advice. N.B. Watch out in case yours are fixed at the top or bottom by glue - too hot water could melt this!!

We put ours in a couple of pillow cases then into the washing machine on a "delicates" wash, low speed spin then hang to dry.

Hilary's Blinds have now replied, saying that what we have is an 'unwashable' fabric. Do you reckon that just 4 or 6 slats, on the most delicate and coolest setting might still be ok, would you advise trying with a couple of slats to start with, or would you stay away from the washing machine altogether??
