Safe and trustworthy windows for your house where you live your whole life

Montage provides excellent safety performance by using 100% lead-free PVC parts.
Why is a lead-free product safe?
Lead is a substance causing severe symptoms to the various parts of the body, such as brain, nerves,
kidneys, liver, blood, digestive tract or reproductive organs.
Significant high levels of lead in the blood can cause changes in personality, headaches,
loss of sensation, weakness, metallic taste in the mouth, unsteady gait,
gastrointestinal disorders or anemia, and in severe cases,
it may cause symptoms of brain damage (encephalopathy),
and if such symptoms last for a long time, long-term intellectual disability may occur.

Especially for small children, their developing nervous systems are most susceptible to damage caused by lead.
They will get fussy and have difficulty in concentrating, and then encephalopathy suddenly develops and worsens over several days,
which may cause intellectual disability, convulsive disorders, aggressive and anomalous behavior,
developmental delay, chronic abdominal pain or anemia.
Moreover, lead is a substance subject to regulations overseas since it not only has an adverse effect
on the human body but also pollutes the environment.
Montage is a safe and secure PVC sash, main parts of which are imported from the United States
where strict regulations are imposed, and then assembled in Japan.

In Japan, regulations are not as strict as those in the Northern America; thus,
lead may be used in some resin parts for productivity improvement and cost reduction.
On the other hand, PVC (resin) parts for Montage are 100% lead-free. It is not only excellent in design and features,
but also trustworthy. That's why small children can enjoy a safe and comfortable environment.
