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).
