Sunburst Shutters Company History: How We Brought Custom Shutters to Phoenix

Sunburst Shutters was started in the early '70s in Phoenix, AZ, by people who believed they could make a better shutter than any other on the market.

The ambition to be the best shutter company has transformed every aspect of the window treatment industry. Sunburst provided an in-home consultation where design experts brought samples into a customer’s residence to walk them through selecting the best window treatment product. In addition, Sunburst set out to hire sales staff that were courteous and friendly – and, at the same time, knowledgeable and helpful. Homeowners across the US quickly fell in love with Sunburst Shutters.

In the '70s, draperies and blinds were the usual window treatments in most homes. That’s when Sunburst Shutters showed clients a more durable and energy-efficient window treatment: plantation shutters. 

Initially, the company offered wood shutters exclusively. But it became evident fast that Sunburst should craft the ultimate shutter – one that provides maximum energy efficiency, and looks as beautiful 20 years from now as the day you purchased it. After much research, sampling, and testing, Sunburst revealed its Polywood Shutters. 

Once Sunburst offered the best shutters in the industry, they grew considerably, opening stores across America. In 2008, Sunburst Shutters extended its offerings into blinds, shades, draperies, and window film – and changed its name to Sunburst Shutters & Window Fashions.

Now, Sunburst Shutters & Window Fashions offers any treatment for any size or shape of window – all custom-fashioned and professionally installed. With 2,000+ window treatment choices and options, Sunburst is the absolute source of window treatment products in the US.
