GSO ASTM F2236:2021 Scope
1.1 This consumer safety specification establishes performance
requirements, test methods and marking requirements to
promote safe use of soft infant and toddler 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 and toddler
carrier is a product, normally of sewn fabric construction,
which is designed to contain a full term infant to a toddler,
generally in an upright position, in close proximity to the
caregiver. In general, the child will weigh between 7 and 45 lb
(3.2 and 22 kg). The soft infant and toddler carrier is normally
“worn” by the caregiver with a child positioned in the carrier
and the weight of the child and carrier suspended from one or
both shoulders of the caregiver. These products may be worn
on the front, side, or back 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 and toddler 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.
