Eclipse Shutters was one of the featured products in The ABC Kids Expo GREENGUARD Nursery for the second time
Eclipse Shutters was one of the featured products in the ABC Kids Expo GREENGUARD Nursery in 2009, and they were featured a second time in 2010! Held at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, KY, the main focus of the show is on products from newborn through teen, predominantly in the areas of furniture, bedding, room decor, baby gear, toys and related accessories. The GREENGUARD nursery at The ABC Show helps to create awareness that good indoor air quality is critical to providing healthy environments for children. With children spending on average 85% of their time indoors and indoor air typically 2-5 times more polluted than the outdoor air, one of the most important steps for protecting children is to make sure the air they breathe indoors is clean and free of hazardous pollutants.
