Safe Window Treatments In Atlanta
As of June 1, 2024,The American National Standard For Safety Of Corded Window Covering Products went into effect. This guideline requires the majority window coverings sold in the US to have cordless mechanisms or have cords intentionally designed with safety devices. This is an essential move toward phasing out using cords that are a strangulation risk to little children.
A New Window Treatment Safety Standard
The Window Covering Manufacturers Association and American National Standards Institute is enforcing the new safety benchmark for window treatment products. ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2022 is a criterion that gives new requirements for window treatments that “reduce the possibility of injury, including strangulation, to young children from the bead chain, cord, or any type of flexible loop.”
Beginning June 1, 2024, window treatments sold in the US need to follow the new safety standard. The majority of products will come in cordless options. Treatments with a continuous loop must include a regulated tension device that keeps the loop from becoming a strangulation hazard. These requirements will greatly lessen the number of window treatment cord injuries and fatalities among young children.
