USA - Safety Standard for Full-Size Baby Cribs

Business description

In 2010, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or CPSC) published a consumer product safety standard for full-size baby cribs under section 104 of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA). 

The standard incorporated by reference ASTM F1169-10, Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Full-Size Baby Cribs, with modifications. 

In 2019, the standard was updated to incorporate by reference ASTM F1169-19. 

The CPSIA sets forth a process for updating mandatory standards for durable infant or toddler products that are based on a voluntary standard, when a voluntary standards organization revises the standard. 

Consistent with the CPSIA update process, this direct final rule updates the mandatory standard for full-size baby cribs to incorporate by reference ASTM's 2025 version of the voluntary standard.

The rule is effective on August 1, 2026, unless the Commission receives a significant adverse comment by June 3, 2026. 

If the Commission receives such a comment, it will publish a document in the Federal Register, withdrawing this direct final rule before its effective date. 

The incorporation by reference of certain material listed in this rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of August 1, 2026.
