Introduction
In November 2014 the European Working Group CEN/TC 252/WG 3 decided to split EN 1888 into
different parts to clearly treat in a different way, new products or new functions of wheeled child
conveyances.
This document covers pushchairs intended for sport activities and is only applicable in conjunction with
EN 1888-1:2018+A1:2022, which states general requirements for pushchairs and prams; and if
applicable, with EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022, which states requirements for pushchairs intended for
children up to 22 kg.
Compliance with EN 1888-1:2018+A1:2022 is mandatory to comply with this document.
If the pushchair is intended for children up to 22 kg, compliance with EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022 is
mandatory to comply with this document.
1 Scope
This document specifies the safety requirements of pushchairs when used for running/jogging or
skating (excluding ice skating), intended for the transport of one or two children up to 15 or 22 kg each.
Pushchairs intended to transport the carer while pushing (e.g. the combination of longboard and
stroller) are excluded from the scope of this document.
This document applies in conjunction with and in addition to the European standards
EN 1888-1:2018+A1:2022 or EN 1888-2:2018+A1:2022 and it cannot be used separately.
If the product has several functions or can be converted into another function, the relevant European
standards apply to it.
