Why do the MH42, MV64 and MC75 baby changing units NOT have straps?
The MH42, MV64 and MC75 baby changing units have been manufactured to meet the latest British and European standards. The European standard specifically prohibits restraining harnesses in excess of 220mm. This is to avoid the danger of entrapment. Furthermore, the current standards committee are considering banning straps entirely to eliminate the potential hazard. For this reason we decided we would no longer provide straps on our new models. We have made the barriers deeper than the requirements so that there is no need for straps. The child should never be left unattended and straps do give the indication that you are able to leave/move away from the child when this is not the case.
