As Well As Your Home’s Safety
As babies grow, so does their curiosity with the world around
them. Basic household items, including window coverings, can
turn into potential hazards. Making our window fashions safer
for homes with infants, young children, and pets is a top priority.
As a result, we have developed a wide range of products that
can reduce the risk of accidents.
