ECE REGULATION R129 i-Size

This regulation was introduced with the main goal being to increase safety standards for children travelling by car.

The new Regulation R129 concerns both car seats with ISOFIX installation defined as i-Size and car seats installed using seat belts, for children from birth up to 150 cm tall.

The main updates in Regulation R129 are:

• T he car seats are classified according to the child’s height and are no longer based on their weight;

• I t is mandatory to travel with the car seat facing backwards until the child is 15 months of age / 76 cm tall;

• S ide impact tests are being added to the frontal impact tests required for the car seat.

Mandatory to travel facing backwards up to 15 months: Travelling with the car seat facing backwards is safer because, if there is a frontal impact, the forces are distributed over the wider area of the child’s back, better protecting their neck and head.

Side impact test

The side impact tests raise safety standards in the event of an accident for greater protection of the child’s head and neck.

Classification of car seats according to height: The classification of car seats according to the height, not the weight, of the child makes it easier to choose the most suitable car seat.

!IMPORTANT: The car seat is no longer chosen according to the weight of the child, it is based on the height instead.

Our philosophy is to design safe and comfortable products! All our “i-Size” car seats have undergone stringent side impact tests confirmed by our “Safe Body Protection” seal.

and our car seats in the 100 - 150 cm usage category are also equipped with additional integrated “Comfort Kid Pad” protection, which has been designed, tested and certified to make travel safer and more comfortable.
