Children's Furniture - Seating for Children - Safety Requirements and Test Methods
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 17191 standard is primarily concerned with the safety standards and testing procedures for chairs intended for children who are able to walk and sit independently. It strives to ensure that these seating solutions meet particular safety requirements and offer a secure environment for kids.
The standard specifies specifications for the structure, materials, and stability of children's chairs, among other things. It discusses concerns associated with entrapment, sharp edges or points, gaps, and other potential hazards. The guideline also covers the use of acceptable, non-toxic, and harmful-substance-free materials.
Various test techniques are offered to guarantee conformity with the standard. These tests assess the seating goods' overall performance, strength, and durability. These tests' examples could include stability, impact resistance, and load tests.
