GSO ASTM F2236:2011 Scope
1.1 This consumer safety specification establishes performance
requirements, test methods and marking requirements to
promote safe use of soft infant carriers.
1.2 This consumer safety specification is intended to minimize
the risk of incidents to an infant from the normal use and
reasonably foreseeable misuse of these products.
1.3 For purposes of definition, a soft infant carrier is a
product, normally of sewn fabric construction, which is designed
to contain a full term infant, generally in an upright
position, in close proximity to the caregiver. In general, the
child will weigh between 7 and 25 lb (3.2 and 11.3 kg). The
soft infant carrier is normally “worn” by the caregiver with the
carrier, and thus the infant, suspended from one or both
shoulders of the caregiver. These products are generally worn
on the front of the caregiver’s body with the infant either facing
towards or away from the caregiver. This consumer safety
specification does not include products generally referred to as
“slings.”
1.4 No soft infant carrier produced after the approval date of
this consumer safety specification shall, either by label or other
means, indicate compliance with the specification unless it
complies with all of the requirements contained herein.
1.5 This consumer safety specification is not intended to
address incidents and injuries resulting from the interaction of
other persons or objects with the caregiver and infant while the
soft carrier is in use.
1.6 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded
as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical
conversions to SI units that are provided for information only
and are not considered standard.
1.7 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the
test method portion, Section 7 of this consumer safety specification.
This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate
safety and health practices and determine the applicability
of regulatory requirements prior to use.
