BS EN 13209-2:2015 PDF Download

A safety standard called BS EN 13209-2:2015 outlines the specifications and testing procedures for soft carriers made to transport children when fastened to the torso of a caregiver. These soft carriers are designed to give the caregiver a hands-free option, whether standing or moving about. The standard is suitable for children weighing up to 15 kg and applies to soft carriers without a framed support and with integral leg holes.

This standard's goal is to guarantee the caregiver's and child's safety throughout its use. It specifies particular safety standards that the soft carrier must adhere to, including specifications for the strength of the fabric, fasteners, and modifications. The standard also specifies the testing procedures to evaluate the effectiveness and resilience of the soft carrier.

In order to ensure compliance with all relevant safety criteria, it is crucial to note that if the soft carrier has additional functions not covered by this European Standard, reference should be made to the appropriate European Standard.
