Child use and care articles: Wheeled child conveyances - Pushchairs and prams
Also Known As:
A standard known as BS EN 1888-1:2018 details the safety criteria and testing procedures for pushchairs and strollers. These wheeled child carriages are made to carry one or more kids, each of whom can weigh up to 15 kg. The standard also permits an integrated platform that a youngster can stand on and has a weight restriction of up to 20 kg.
It's vital to remember that toys and baby carriers with wheels are not covered by this standard. Additionally, it excludes prams and pushchairs with motors as well as those made especially for kids with special needs.
A pushchair or pram must adhere to the appropriate criteria for each distinct function if it has numerous purposes or may be converted into another function. This gives parents and caregivers peace of mind by ensuring the safety and quality of these child transports.
