REACH Compliant Shades – Certified Chemical Safety

REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals) is the European Union's rigorous regulatory framework for chemical safety. REACH compliance ensures that products are free from Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs) that may pose risks to human health or the environment. Our REACH Compliant Shades collection features fabrics and components that have been independently tested and certified to meet these stringent standards. This is not a marketing claim—it is a verifiable commitment to chemical safety, backed by laboratory test reports. REACH‑compliant shades are ideal for clients with chemical sensitivities, for projects seeking green building certifications, or for anyone who simply wants the peace of mind that comes with knowing their window coverings are free from harmful substances. Available across all our product categories: roller, roman, cellular, zebra, and sheer shades. Custom‑sized to your exact window dimensions. Certified safe, verified clean.

What is REACH Compliance?

REACH is a European Union regulation designed to protect human health and the environment from risks posed by chemicals. Products that are REACH‑compliant contain no Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs) above 0.1% w/w. SVHCs include carcinogens, mutagens, reproductive toxins, and persistent bioaccumulative chemicals. Our REACH‑compliant shades meet this stringent standard.

Independent Testing & Certification

Our REACH‑compliant fabrics are tested by ISO 17025‑accredited laboratories for more than 200 SVHCs, including:

  • Phthalates (plasticizers)

  • Heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury)

  • Azo dyes and aromatic amines

  • Formaldehyde

  • Certain brominated and chlorinated flame retardants

  • Perfluorinated compounds (PFOA, PFOS)

Full test reports are available upon request.

Ideal for Sensitive Populations & Green Building

REACH‑compliant shades are recommended for:

  • Clients with multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS)

  • Nurseries and children’s rooms

  • Healthcare facilities

  • LEED and WELL certified projects

  • Environmentally conscious homeowners

These fabrics contribute to LEED v4.1 credits for Low‑Emitting Materials.

Available Across All Shade Styles

REACH‑compliant fabrics are available across all standard polyester shade collections:

  • Roller shades

  • Roman shades

  • Cellular shades

  • Zebra shades

  • Sheer shades

Documentation for Compliance

Each REACH‑compliant shade order includes a certificate of compliance and, upon request, the full laboratory test report. This documentation can be submitted to green‑building certifiers, healthcare administrators, or clients with chemical sensitivities.

REACH‑compliant shades deliver the same durability, light control, and energy efficiency as our standard products. The only difference is the verified absence of harmful chemicals.
