Safety standards help ensure that products are tested against recognised requirements for performance, durability and everyday use.
Quick Answer
- R129 is the latest European child car seat regulation.
- i-Size is a safety framework designed around a child's height.
- EN1888 applies to stroller safety testing.
- EN1466 applies to carry cot safety testing.
- Mimi products are designed to meet applicable safety requirements for their intended use.
What Is R129?
R129 is a European child car seat regulation designed to improve child passenger safety.
It introduces more rigorous testing requirements and supports extended rearward-facing travel during the earliest stages of development.
What Is i-Size?
i-Size forms part of the R129 regulation and classifies child car seats according to a child's height rather than weight alone.
This helps parents select a car seat based on growth and fit throughout different stages.
The Mimi Avaro infant car seat is suitable from 40–87 cm.
What Is EN1888?
EN1888 is a European stroller safety standard.
It includes testing for areas such as:
- Structural integrity.
- Stability.
- Durability.
- Locking mechanisms.
- Restraint systems.
The Mimi LUNO stroller is designed in accordance with EN1888 requirements.
What Is EN1466?
EN1466 is a European standard that applies to carry cots.
Testing focuses on factors such as:
- Structural performance.
- Stability.
- Retention systems.
- Safe use during newborn travel.
This standard is particularly important during the earliest stages when babies spend significant time in a lie-flat position.
Why Do Safety Standards Matter?
Safety standards provide a framework for testing and evaluating products under defined conditions.
They help verify that products perform as intended while supporting safe everyday use.
For parents, these standards provide additional confidence that products have been developed and tested against recognised requirements.
