Safety Standard for Toddler Beds

In October 2019, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) published an update to the consumer product safety standard for toddler beds (notified as G/TBT/N/USA/539/Rev.1/Add.1) under the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA). The standard incorporated by reference ASTM F1821-19e2, Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Toddler Beds, the voluntary standard for toddler beds that was in effect at the time. ASTM has now issued a revised standard, ASTM F1821-26. Consistent with the CPSIA, this direct final rule updates the mandatory standard to incorporate by reference ASTM's 2026 version of the voluntary standard. The rule is effective on 29 August 2026, unless CPSC receives a significant adverse comment by 15 June 2026. If CPSC 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 29 August 2026. 91 Federal Register (FR) 27199, 14 May 2026; Title 16 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1217: This direct final rule and previous actions notified under the symbol G/TBT/N/USA/539/Rev.1 are identified by Docket Number CPSC-2017-0012.

In accordance with section 104(b) of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA), also known as the Danny Keysar Child Product Safety Notification Act, in April 2011 the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission, or CPSC) published a consumer product safety standard for toddler beds. The standard incorporated by reference the ASTM voluntary standard for toddler beds, with several modifications. The CPSIA sets forth a process for updating standards that the Commission has issued under the authority of section 104(b) of the CPSIA. In accordance with that process, we are publishing this direct final rule, revising the CPSC's standard for toddler beds to incorporate by reference a more recent version of the applicable ASTM standard.

    Safety Standard for Toddler Beds (13 pages, English)

    Section 104(b) of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (“CPSIA”) requires the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (“Commission,” “CPSC”) to promulgate consumer product safety standards for durable infant or toddler products. These standards are to be 'substantially the same as' applicable voluntary standards or more stringent than the voluntary standard if the Commission concludes that more stringent requirements would further reduce the risk of injury associated with the product. The Commission is proposing a safety standard for toddler beds in response to the direction under section 104(b) of the CPSIA. The proposed safety standard would address entrapment in bed end structures, entrapment between the guardrail and side rail, entrapment in the mattress support system, and component failures of the bed support system and guardrails. The proposed standard also addresses corner post extensions that can catch items worn by a child.
