Why it matters: This action updates the technical requirements manufacturers must follow. It is primarily an administrative adoption of a revised industry standard, but it codifies specific safety rules for mesh-sided cribs and accessories. Manufacturers and importers will need to ensure their products meet the new design and testing requirements by August 1, 2026. The rule also confirms that the standard applies only to manufacturers and importers, not to child care facilities or public accommodations.
