The Window Covering Safety Council (WCSC) is a
coalition of major U.S. manufacturers, importers and retailers of window
coverings. The Council assists and supports its members in the industry's
ongoing efforts to encourage the use of cordless products in homes with young
children, its redesign of corded products, and to support the national ANSI/WCMA
standard for the safety of corded window coverings. WCSC's activities in no way
constitute an assumption of any legal duty owed by its members or any other
entity. Consumers wishing to retrofit rather than replace their older window
coverings can order free retrofit devices through WCSC's website at http://www.windowcoverings.org
or its toll-free phone line at 1-800-506-4636
