Division 3.1 Scope

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

These safety requirements apply to high chairs intended for children who are able to sit up unaided, from approximately six months to 36 months of age, weighing a maximum of 15 kg. If the children’s high chairs are designed to be converted into children’s chairs, they must also comply with the safety requirements that apply to children’s chairs.

If parts of the high chair are designed to be removable (e.g. a tray or a footrest), these safety requirements apply to the high chair with and without these part(s).

Products with a significant play value must also comply with the requirements of Directive 2009/48/EC of the European Parliament and of the Councilf1 on the safety of toys (for example, a high chair that can be converted into a rocking horse).
