Issue

Health Canada has determined that the recalled blinds do not meet the Corded Window Coverings Regulations, posing a choking hazard. The end caps on the bottom rail may not be glued and can release small parts that present a choking hazard to young children.

Health Canada recommends cordless window coverings. For more information on the hazard, see Blind Cord Safety

As of May 19, 2026, 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 contact Springs if the end caps on the bottom rail are not securely glued.

Please note that the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act prohibits recalled products from being redistributed, sold or even given away in Canada.
