Furniture. Children's Cots and Folding Cots for Domestic Use. Test Methods
Also Known As:
A series of test procedures for determining the safety of children's cots and folding cots designed for use in home settings are provided by the standard BS EN 716-2:2017. The standard applies to cots with internal lengths that are greater than 900 mm but less than 1,400 mm.
This standard's goal is to guarantee that children's cots and folding cots adhere to specific safety standards. The standard's test procedures address a number of safety-related topics, including structural integrity, entrapment risks, stability, mattress support, and durability. The standard defines criteria for judging these items' safety performance and acts as a guideline for producers, sellers, and authorities.
In order to evaluate the safety of the cots in terms of their impact resistance, resistance to overturning, strength of obstacles, and integrity of the locking mechanisms, the tests described in BS EN 716-2:2017 imitate real-life scenarios. The standard specifies the loading conditions, measurement techniques, and pass/fail criteria as well as full instructions on how to execute these tests.
Children's cots and folding cots are guaranteed to comply with BS EN 716-2:2017, giving customers piece of mind and assisting in the prevention of accidents and injuries. This standard can be used by producers and retailers to create and promote items that meet safety standards and lessen the risk to children.
