Window Treatment Safety In Miami
As of June 1, 2024,The American National Standard For Safety Of Corded Window Covering Products went into effect. This standard requires almost all window treatments sold in the US to have cordless designs or have cords that work with special safety devices. It is an essential move toward eliminating the use of cords that pose a strangulation danger to small children.
A New Safety Standard For Window Treatments
The Window Covering Manufacturers Association and American National Standards Institute is enforcing the new safety measure for window covering products. ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2022 is a standard that spells out 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.”
As of June 1, 2024, window covers sold in the United States need to meet this safety standard. The bulk of products will change to cordless designs. Treatments that have a continuous loop must include a certain tension device to prevent the loop from becoming a strangulation hazard. These measures will greatly reduce the number of window treatment cord injuries and deaths among toddlers.
