Custom-made roller blind with cord shield recalled due to strangulation hazard for children

Issue

Health Canada has determined that the recalled blinds do not meet the Corded Window Coverings Regulations and pose a strangulation hazard. Young children may pull looped cords around their neck, or become entangled in the cords, causing a strangulation hazard and even death. Health Canada recommends cordless window coverings. For more information on the hazard, see Blind Cord Safety. As of January 27, 2026, the company has received no report of incidents or injury in Canada.
