Non Toxic Shades – Pure Materials, Peace of Mind

“Non‑toxic” is more than a marketing term—it is a verifiable commitment to materials that are free from known harmful substances. Our Non Toxic Shades collection features window coverings that are:

  • PVC‑free – no polyvinyl chloride, no phthalates.
  • Heavy metal‑free – no lead, cadmium, mercury, or chromium (VI).
  • Formaldehyde‑free – no added formaldehyde, no urea‑formaldehyde resins.
  • GREENGUARD Gold Certified – low VOC emissions, verified by UL.
    These shades are the definitive choice for families with young children, individuals with chemical sensitivities, and anyone seeking to minimize their exposure to environmental toxins. Yet they retain all the beauty, durability, and light‑control functionality of our standard collections. Available across all our product categories: roller, roman, cellular, zebra, and sheer shades. Custom‑sized to your exact window dimensions. Pure materials, pure peace of mind.

What Makes a Shade Non‑Toxic?

Our non‑toxic shades meet a comprehensive set of material‑health restrictions:

  • PVC‑free — No polyvinyl chloride. Fabrics are 100% polyester; backings (when used) are polyethylene. This eliminates concerns about phthalates, dioxins, and chlorine‑based chemistry.

  • Heavy‑metal‑free — No lead, cadmium, mercury, or hexavalent chromium in dyes, pigments, or stabilizers. All colors are solution‑dyed with non‑toxic pigments.

  • Formaldehyde‑free — No formaldehyde‑based resins in laminates or adhesives. Tested to non‑detect levels (< 5 ppm).

  • Phthalate‑free — No DEHP, DBP, BBP, DINP, DIDP, or DNOP. Verified through independent laboratory testing.

  • Low VOC — GREENGUARD Gold Certified for chemical emissions.
