Child-Guard Celebrates Poison Prevention Week by Recommending Safety Advice
APPLETON, Wis. (PRWEB) March 10, 2017 -- To raise awareness about accidental poisonings and prevention, Fresh-Lock® Slider Zipper, the maker of the child-resistant slider, Child-Guard™, is celebrating National Poison Prevention Week, March 19-25, by providing resources for parents to protect children against exposure to potentially dangerous household items on Child-Guard.com.
Child-Guard.com offers useful material for parents and caregivers looking to safeguard children from potentially hazardous products in their homes. The site features a blog focused on parenting, household safety topics, and products currently using the child-resistant slider.
“We are dedicated to raising awareness of the risks certain products pose to young children, as well as ways to reduce exposures from occurring,” said Brad Hansen, president of Presto Specialty Products. “By continually promoting child safety through Child-Guard.com, we are giving consumers additional resources to help keep kids safe.”
Recently, Child-Guard.com promoted Poison Control’s free mobile app and web browser, webPOISONCONTROL®, which offers users the ability to submit specific substance information in the event of exposure. The application helps to give parents peace of mind with convenient access to symptom information and recommendations.
