Overview
EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022 (CEN) specifies additional safety requirements and test methods for pushchairs designed to carry children above 15 kg and up to 22 kg each. This part supplements EN 1888-1:2018 and must be applied in conjunction with it; EN 1888-2 cannot be used alone. The standard focuses on practical safety outcomes for manufacturers, test laboratories and conformity assessors, aligning product design with predictable real-world loads and use conditions.
Key practical points: the standard defines a test mass (Test mass H) representing a 22 kg child, prescribes additional dynamic and durability cycles, and tightens requirements for restraint, braking, stability and product marking.
Key Topics
- Test mass H: a rigid cylinder of (220 ± 5) mm diameter and (320 ± 5) mm height, mass (22 +0.1/0) kg, with two anchorage points positioned (160 ± 2,5) mm from the base. This test mass is used across multiple tests to simulate a child up to 22 kg.
- Restraint system: the harness must be adjustable to secure the test mass H; attachment points and fasteners are tested (220 N for attachment, 250 N for fasteners) according to EN 1888-1 procedures.
- Parking and braking: tests in EN 1888-1 are repeated using test mass H, including additional abrasion conditioning of 33 000 cycles to ensure brake/parking durability under heavier loads.
- Stability and structural integrity: stability and dynamic strength tests are repeated with test mass H; attachment strength and seat unit durability are assessed. The irregular surface test adds 24 000 cycles with the backrest upright and forward-facing when possible.
- Handle strength and fatigue: handle strength testing uses test mass H for 3 300 additional cycles; conditional additional cycles apply if a downwards force to lift front wheels exceeds 450 N.
- Marking and information: products must be marked with the EN 1888-2 number/year and the maximum child weight pictogram. The pictogram has a minimum blue circle diameter of 25 mm and number height of at least 4 mm. Purchase and instruction information must state the maximum weight (up to 22 kg or 4 years, whichever comes first).
Applications
- Manufacturers: design validation and pre-compliance testing for pushchairs intended for children up to 22 kg.
- Test laboratories: standardized procedures and specific test mass H for repeatable mechanical, durability and stability testing.
- Regulatory & procurement: harmonised criteria for safety claims, labeling and documentation used across CEN member states.
Related Standards
- EN 1888-1:2018 - mandatory companion standard covering general requirements, terms and test sequences for pushchairs and prams.
Following EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022 helps ensure robust product safety, clearer product information and demonstrable compliance for pushchairs designed for older/heavier children (up to 22 kg).

표준 EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022는 15kg에서 22kg 사이의 아동을 위한 푸시차에 대한 안전 요구사항과 시험 방법을 상세히 규정하고 있습니다. 이 표준은 어린이용 휠 수송 기구의 안전성을 높이기 위한 필수적인 가이드라인을 제공하며, 특정 무게 범위의 아동을 대상으로 설계된 푸시차에 대한 추가적인 안전 요구사항을 포함합니다. 주요 강점 중 하나는 푸시차와 관련된 다양한 안전 문제를 체계적으로 다루고 있다는 점입니다. 이는 제조업체가 안전하고 신뢰성 있는 제품을 제공할 수 있도록 지원하는 중요한 기준을 설정합니다. 또한, EN 1888-1과의 연계를 통해 이 표준은 제품의 전반적인 안전성을 보장하는 데 기여하며, 푸시차의 설계와 제작에 있어 필수적인 요소를 명확히 합니다. 이 표준은 아동 안전 분야의 최신 동향을 반영하고 있어, 제조사와 사용자 모두에게 높은 관련성을 지니고 있습니다. 아울러, 푸시차가 시장에서 제대로 기능하고 아동에게 안전함을 제공할 수 있도록 하는 점에서 중요한 역할을 합니다. 결과적으로 EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022는 푸시차 제조업체들이 준수해야 할 중요한 기준으로 자리 잡고 있으며, 아동 안전을 위한 글로벌 스탠다드의 일환으로 매우 의미 있는 문서입니다.
The standard EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022 addresses the specific safety requirements and testing methods for pushchairs designed for children weighing between 15 kg and 22 kg. This standard is crucial in ensuring that manufacturers adhere to stringent safety protocols for wheeled child conveyances, particularly those used for older children who are typically more mobile and may engage in more active behavior. One of the significant strengths of EN 1888-2 is its comprehensive approach to safety. It builds upon the foundational requirements established in EN 1888-1, creating a cohesive set of regulations that address both general and age-specific concerns in pushchair design. This ensures that products on the market provide adequate protection for their intended users without compromising usability or functionality. The relevance of this standard cannot be overstated, especially as the market evolves with new designs and innovations in child care articles. With a growing focus on child safety, EN 1888-2 plays a vital role in guiding manufacturers to meet regulatory expectations and enhance the safety features of their pushchairs. It addresses critical factors such as structural integrity, maneuverability, and stability-key components that contribute to the overall safety of wheeled child conveyances. Additionally, the testing methods specified within this standard are robust and thorough, facilitating an effective evaluation of pushchair designs against potential hazards. By adhering to these testing protocols, manufacturers can confidently bring products to market that prioritize the safety and well-being of children. Overall, EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022 is an essential standard in the realm of child care articles, particularly for those concerned with the safety of wheeled child conveyances.
