AS/NZS 4385:1996 PDF Download

A standard known as AS/NZS 4385:1996 describes the precise safety standards for rocking cradles meant for use by newborns. The rocking cradle's construction materials, design, and construction, as well as the cradle's performance parameters and labeling and marking requirements, are all covered by the standard.

The standard is focused, especially on rocking cradles that can swing or rock. Other kinds of newborn sleep items, including baby hammocks or cradles without a tilt, are not covered by it. The standard strives to protect the general safety and wellbeing of newborns using rocking cradles by outlining these safety requirements.

The standard offers instructions to producers, merchants, and customers so they may make sure rocking cradles adhere to the appropriate safety criteria. This promotes the safety and comfort of infants by lowering the likelihood of accidents or injuries related to the use of rocking cradles.
