1 in 4 car crashes involving children are
side impact collisions.* They are by far
the deadliest type of collision for children,
accounting for 1 in 3 child fatalities;* nearly all
of which are caused by head trauma. These
are frightening facts, but Safety 1st has been
by your side for 25 years providing innovative
products to help protect your child from
becoming a statistic. It is in this tradition
that we proudly announce Air Protect™ side
impact technology.
Safety 1st engineers designed Air Protect™
using next generation testing methods that
simulate the most violent types of side
impact crashes, those with vehicle intrusion.
Using this advanced methodology, Air
Protect™ was engineered to defend your
child in two vital ways. During a crash, the
system immediately shields your child’s head
from the impact. In a second layer of defense,
Air Protect™ allows air to escape from the
headrest: channeling crash energy away from
your child, creating more ride down time. It is
this double layer of protection that makes Air
Protect™ technology unique.
At Safety 1st we are proud of our history, but
are always looking towards the future and
developing innovative products. Products
like Air Protect™ that help shield your child
from the most violent real world threats.
Safety 1st Air Protect™: Real Safety for Real
Life.
