<p>The procedure, in which a blind is made from two or more layers of material (10, 12, 17), includes a stage in which stiffening ribs (11) are inserted between the layers, e.g. during their assembly with the aid of films of hot-melt adhesive (18). The stiffening ribs, made from a plastic and/or metal, are spaced at intervals of 1 - 5 cm, and can be fixed between the layers as they are assembled by passing between heated rollers (13, 14).
