Revision to the Voluntary Standard for Non-Full-Size Baby Cribs and Play Yards

Resumen

Two of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's (Commission or CPSC) mandatory rules, Safety Standard for Non-Full-Size Baby Cribs and Safety Standard for Play Yards, incorporate by reference the same voluntary standard, ASTM F406, Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Non-Full-Size Baby Cribs/Play Yards. The Safety Standard for Non-Full-Size Baby Cribs incorporates the 2022 version of ASTM F406, and the Safety Standard for Play Yards incorporates the 2019 version of ASTM F406. ASTM notified the Commission that it has revised ASTM F406 and published ASTM F406-2024. CPSC seeks comment on whether adopting the revised voluntary standard would improve the safety of non-full-size cribs and/or play yards.
