CPSC Approves Safety Standard for Infant Bouncer Seats

The Consumer Product Safety Commission recently approved a new mandatory safety standard for infant bouncer seats, it said in a Sept. 7 press release. The new standard adopts the existing ASTM voluntary industry standard, with more stringent requirements related to warnings for infant caregivers. “The CPSC has proposed that the rule become effective 6 months after the publication of a final rule in the Federal Register,” the release said. International Trade Today will provide more details when the rule is published.
