Issue
Health Canada has determined that the recalled blinds do not meet the Corded Window Coverings Regulations and pose a strangulation hazard. The design of the product does not properly address the hazards of exposed operating cords, which can create loops. Young children may pull looped cords around their neck, or become entangled in the cords, causing a strangulation hazard. Two products (Mirage PVC Mini Blinds with PVC Headrail - Creation and Jean H. Henlé blinds) can also release small parts that present a choking hazard to young children.
As of August 11, 2022 the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
What you should do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled products and keep all of the cords away from children. The cord(s) should be cut and the product disposed of.
For more information, consumers may contact Fabricville by email: andrem@fabricville.com or by telephone at 514-383-3949 extension 334 (Monday to Thursday 9:00 am– 5:00 pm and Friday 9:00 am – 1:00 pm).
Please note that the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act prohibits recalled products from being redistributed, sold or even given away in Canada.
