Hazard

The product presents a risk of strangulation as the chain tidy can detach from the frame due to the poor performance of the adhesive pads. This may lead to the fixed tension system failing and the cord becoming slack. If a young child were to access the cord, they could become entangled in it and restrict their airways, leading to strangulation. The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.

Remedy

Modification programme. Louvolite have produced a new screwed retaining clip and are contacting end users directly to supply a replacement retaining clip. Users with an affected chain tidy or users with further queries should contact the Louvolite customer services team on +44 161 882 5000.
