Birdy Boutique Q3

TESTING & CERTIFICATION PROCESS
CPSC/CPSIA TESTED & COMPLIANT
The Consumer Product Safety Commission, CPSC, requires that all children’s
products are subject to a set of federal safety rules, called children’s product
safety rules. This means that all manufacturers are required by law to ensure
their products go through rigorous testing that will deem their items safe to
use.
The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, CPSIA, allows the CPSC to
be more stringent on product safety requirements. Each one of our ponchos,
along with all other Birdy Boutique products, have been rigorously tested by
a CPSC approved laboratory and all CPSIA standards have been met. This
means that all the materials used in manufacturing our products were tested
and are safe to use for you and for your child. We went through this lengthy
process because safety is a priority we care about! Our ponchos are SAFE
and CPSC and CPSIA compliant! The laboratory that we utilized has been
government certified and operational for 10 years. Our ponchos are tested to
all CPSC children’s product standards.
CRASH TESTING FACILITY
We researched and chose to use a government certified and government
utilized crash test laboratory to test the safety of our ponchos. This was a
significant financial investment to our small business so we had to choose
wisely. This test facility, located in Virginia, specializes in testing many of the
most popular car seat brands for the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration, the US Government’s authority on car seat safety. Results:
Our crash test showed that using our poncho in a car seat allows for the seat
belts to be properly tightened against the child’s body, with no unsafe slack
of bulky clothing.
