ECE R44 Child Car Seat Vehicle Type Approval Certificate

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ECE R44 standard. According to ECE R44 test regulation, a product is tested in a way that simulates 50 km/h front and 30 km/h rear collision situations. In addition, according to the standard, the seats must be categorized according to the weight classes of the children. The robustness of the seat belts and the apparatus to which the belts are attached, and the guidance information placed on the product and the correct information of the user about the product assembly are also among the conditions of the ECE R44 Certificate.

Today, ECE R44 Child Car Seat Vehicle Type Approval Certificate is required for many car seat products. However, we can say that UN R44 (i-Size), which is the EU's new safety standard and further expands the scope of ECE R129, has been put into use gradually and this standard will be taken into account in the certification process in the coming periods.

ECE R44 Document shows that baby and child seats used in vehicles meet the safety requirements. Car seats produced in accordance with ECE R44, a safety standard accepted by the European Union (EU), can obtain ECE R44 Child Car Seat Vehicle Type Approval Certificate. This safety standard, the latest version of which is published as ECE R44/04, explains which tests baby and child car seats must pass, the seat belt design, mounting information, age and weight classes of children according to the seat, etc.

After the ECE R44/04 regulation came into force, the ECE R44/03 version was repealed and it was decided to give ECE R44/04 Certificate to new products. But this standard is gradually replaced by the most up-to-date security standard; It will release it to a new regulation known as UN R129 or i-Size.

We can say that this certificate is only given to products that have been tested in accredited laboratory organizations and successfully passed the tests. An orange label is attached to the products that pass the tests. The following information should be included on the label:

  • Information that the seat is certified as universal, semi-universal or vehicle-specific according to the standard
  • Maximum load carrying capacity of the seat
  • European Union approval
  • Information on which country the approval was given
  • Double-digit number showing which version the seat is approved for

Baby and child car seats with ECE R44 Certificate can be introduced to the European market, just like other EU approved products. This document, which certifies that car seats are designed to be safe, can also increase the competitiveness of manufacturers in the market. In parallel with the continuous increase in new vehicle production, the need for such products is also increasing. In this context, companies that produce products with EU approval can make more sales and increase their market share. Companies that meet ECE R44, the most important safety standard for car seats, can also increase their corporate reputation.
