ASTM F406Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Non-Full-Size Baby Cribs/PlayYards

Source：Besa Testing


Core Objective

This standard aims to prevent risks such as falls, entrapment, head entrapment, suffocation, side-overturning, and structural collapse for infants and young children in non-full-size cribs and play enclosures, ensuring safe sleep and play environments. 


Standard Definition 

ASTM F406 is a specialized safety standard for non-full-size cots and play enclosures in the United States. The current version is ASTM F406-24. It has been designated as a mandatory regulation by the CPSC, corresponding to 16 CFR Parts 1220/1221. This standard applies to products such as enclosures used for sleeping and playing that are intended for infants who are unable to climb out on their own.


 Testing and certification requirements

 A test report issued by a third-party laboratory accredited by the CPSC must indicate the ASTM F406-24 version. The product must meet requirements related to structural integrity, locking mechanisms, gap protection against entrapment, chemical safety, and warning labels. Compliance with ASTM F406-24 is a mandatory entry requirement for the U.S. market and is enforced by the CPSC.
