CPSC Amends Regulations on Product Registration Requirements for Infant and Toddler Products

The Consumer Product Safety Commission is amending its regulations on durable infant and toddler products to clarify provisions related to mandatory consumer registration requirements for manufacturers. The agency’s final rule matches the definition of “durable infant or toddler product” to the full statutory definition; clarifies that the scope of each listed product category is defined in the applicable mandatory standard; clarifies listed product categories using the product name in the applicable mandatory standard; and clarifies the scope of the infant carriers and bassinets and cradles product categories, CPSC said. The changes take effect Oct. 24.
