The Consumer Product Safety Commission is finalizing exemptions from testing requirements for children’s products containing certain unfinished manufactured fibers. Under the proposal, unfinished polyester (polyethylene terephthalate, PET), nylon, polyurethane (spandex), viscose rayon, natural rubber latex, acrylic and modacrylic would be exempt from testing requirements for phthalates. All those elements besides polyester would also be exempt from testing for certain elements listed in the voluntary industry standard ASTM F963.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission is proposing a new children’s product safety standard for crib bumpers and liners. The proposed rule would adopt the most recent voluntary industry standard, ASTM F1917-12, with “substantial modifications that the Commission concludes would further reduce the risk of injury or death from crib bumpers/liners,” CPSC said. If adopted, the new safety standard would take effect six months after publication of the final rule, it said.
