Gate is “JPMA Certified”; what does that mean?
The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association, Inc. (JPMA) is a national trade organization formed in 1962 that is dedicated to educating consumers on the safe use and selection of juvenile products. JPMA developed an extensive Certification Program to help guide consumers toward purchasing juvenile products that are built with safety in mind. To become JPMA Certified, Retract-A-Gate was professionally tested by an independent testing facility for compliance with the specific American Society for Testing & Materials (ASTM) standards. Once a product passes the tests, JPMA allows the manufacturer to label it with the JPMA Certified Seal. To promote the safe use and selection of products for baby, JPMA publishes “Safe & Sound for Baby,” a brochure which outlines safe product usage and safety measures for the home and car to help ensure baby’s safety.
