The British Blind and Shutter Association
The BBSA is Britain’s only trade association representing
companies that manufacture and supply interior and exterior
blinds, awnings, security grills and shutters. The BBSA has led
the development of the child safety aspects of the only
European Standard for internal blinds (EN 13120). All BBSA
members have to comply with the child safety aspects of this
standard and a number of non-members have committed to this
requirement through the make it safe campaign.

The CEN official standard EN 13120
“Complete elimination of the strangulation risk can only be
achieved by keeping cords, chains, and tapes and similar out
of the reach of children. Use of additional safety devices may
reduce the risk of strangulation but cannot be considered
foolproof. Motorisation eliminates the risk associated with
looped and pull-cord operating mechanisms but the risk relating
to inner tapes and cords (for relevant products) remains. Persons
in charge of children are ultimately responsible for following the
safety instructions provided by the manufacturer.”
