ASTM F2906-13 (R2019) PDF Download

A specification called ASTM F2906-13 (R2019) was created to provide consumer protection for people who sleep on their mattresses. To encourage the safe use of these items, it defines performance standards, test procedures, and marking regulations.

The guideline applies to infant bedside sleepers made for babies up to about five months old, or until the baby starts to push up on hands and knees. The infant can sleep near an adult in one of these sleepers because they are made to be firmly fastened to the side of an adult bed.

The specification offers a number of test methods, including the folding latch test method, the product disengagement test method, and the product disengagement reasoning. To make sure they satisfy the necessary performance criteria, these tests assess the bedside sleepers' operation and safety.

It's vital to remember that this standard does not cover events and injuries brought on by product modification, unreasonable abuse, or misuse by a child or child care provider. Meeting all of the requirements listed in the standard constitutes compliance with this specification.
