DescriptionHorizontal Venetian Blinds by Nulook Blinds P.E.I. Product description This recall involves all horizontal venetian blinds manufactured by Nulook Blinds P.E.I. The products are custom made to order in various dimensions and colours. Hazard identified Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program has determined that the recalled blinds pose a strangulation hazard by not having an inner cord stop. Inner cord stops are devices that prevent an inner cord from being pulled and forming a loop in which young children may pull around their neck, posing a risk of strangulation. The blinds also do not have the required hang tag warnings, correct bottom rail labelling, company information or year of manufacture listed on the product. Neither Health Canada nor Nulook Blinds P.E.I. has received reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of these blinds. For more information on the hazard, see Blind Cord Safety. Number sold Approximately 150 of the affected products were sold in Canada. Time period sold The recalled products were sold at the time the Corded Window Covering Products Regulations came into force in April 2009 until February 2013. Corded window covering products sold before 2009 may not have safety devices, warning labels, and instructions to keep pull cords out of the reach of children. Place of origin Manufactured in Canada.
