What the agency says

In October 2019, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) published an update to the consumer product safety standard for toddler beds under the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA). The standard incorporated by reference ASTM F1821- 19[epsiv]\1\, Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Toddler Beds, the voluntary standard for toddler beds that was in effect at the time. ASTM has now issued a revised standard, ASTM F1821-26. Consistent with the CPSIA, this direct final rule updates the mandatory standard to incorporate by reference ASTM's 2026 version of the voluntary standard.
