| Ring Safety & Testing
Recently, two major ring sling manufacturers have had recalls on their slings due to a fall hazard caused by poorly constructed rings snapping. Please visit the Consumer Product Safety Commission to view more info about this recall.
We buy all of our rings for Peonies slings from a company called SlingRings as they are specifically manufactured for baby slings. These rings are made in the USA and are not the same rings affected by the recall. Peonies Baby Slings does not cut corners when it comes to your child's safety!
The following is information on how they preform ring testing is taken directly from SlingRings site. "We want to bring you the highest quality rings possible. To ensure quality we submit our rings to rigorous testing. During our design phase we perform the following tests:
It was considered a success when multiple rings went through all of these steps without breaking. One ring alone will actually lift a 3000 pound machine, without breaking. Additionally, each ring is individually tested and inspected before shipment. It must pass an impact test and a 250 pound pull test before being considered ready to ship. Our aluminum rings cannot be individually tested due to the nature of the material. Instead these rings are batch tested every 100 rings for continuity and ductility. They are also periodically tested by an outside testing facility, and meet the same rigorous requirements as our nylon rings." |
