DIN EN 16779-1 PDF Download

In response to a request from the European Commission, the CEN (European Committee for Standardization) created the DIN EN 16779-1 standard. This standard's goal is to guarantee the safety of cot duvets used by children while they sleep.

Children's cot duvets are exempt from the standard's safety criteria and testing methodologies, which also apply to removable duvet coverings. These specifications and testing procedures are intended to address the potential risks caused by these items and guarantee that they provide enough warmth for children who are sleeping in cots or other similar products. The standard is applicable to cot duvets made for infants up to 36 months of age.

This standard assists in lowering potential dangers connected to children's cot duvets and guarantees that they are appropriate for use in the child's sleeping environment by defining safety requirements and test procedures. Additionally, it stresses how crucial it is to give adult consumers instructions and warnings so that these items are used properly and safely.
