Safety Standard for Infant and Cradle Swings
In May 2024, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) published an update to the consumer product safety standard for infant and cradle swings under the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA). The standard incorporated by reference ASTM F2088-24, Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Infant and Cradle Swings, the voluntary standard for infant and cradle swings that was in effect at the time. ASTM has now issued a revised standard, ASTM F2088-25. Consistent with the CPSIA, this direct final rule updates the mandatory standard to incorporate by reference ASTM's 2025 version of the voluntary standard.
