Critical findings from a comprehensive study on child safety products raise urgent concerns, prompting a call for enhanced safety standards and heightened vigilance among parents and caregivers
BREDARYD, SWEDEN / ACCESSWIRE / September 28, 2023 / In a dedicated effort to enhance child safety standards, Too Consult Sweden AB feels obliged to announce the results of our extensive investigation into the safety of retractable "Safety Barriers" (known in Europe) and "Expansion Gates" (known in the U.S.). This comprehensive study encompassed a meticulous analysis of numerous models available in both European and U.S. markets.
To view this piece of content from www.accesswire.com, please give your consent at the top of this page.Physical laboratory tests were meticulously conducted by the esteemed state-owned Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE), while chemical evaluations were carried out by SGS-CSTC (Standards Technical Services Co., Ltd) in China.
The tests covered the following aspects:
- Product Marking
- Purchase Information
- Instruction for Use - Manual
- Product Registration Card (CPSC 16 CFR 1130), only U.S.
- Protective Height
- Gaps (Hip Probe/Small Torso)
- Protrusion Hazards (Ball-Chain), only EU
- Chemical content test of fabric according to:
* EU: EN71-3:2019+A1:2021, 2009/48/EC TSD
* U.S.: 16 CFR 1303 + CPSIA and HR 4040, 16 CFR 1307/CPSIA section 108 and Moorberg V, North States Industries Inc. out of court settlement and California State, AB 652.
Our findings, which bear significant implications for parents and caregivers alike, highlight the widespread availability of safety devices in both territories. The 24 models subjected to rigorous examination encompassed a wide array of over 90 unique brand names, with our analysis laser-focused on key clauses from the European standard EN1930:2011 and the U.S. standard ASTM F1004-22.
The outcome of our comprehensive testing has unveiled critical concerns, as certain models exhibited defects that have the potential to result in severe or, tragically, even fatal injuries to children. Conversely, a select subset of models showcased a safety design that maximizes child protection.
These findings highlight a troubling pattern of neglect or inadequate comprehension of safety standards within both manufacturers and merchants. Furthermore, they underscore the shortcomings of government consumer watchdogs and consumer organizations in monitoring dangerous products within their respective markets.

Graid Technology Launches Agentic AI Storage Portfolio to Eliminate KV Cache Bottlenecks21.4.2026 17:00:00 CEST | Press release
From edge inference to NVIDIA STX, purpose-built KV cache infrastructure for consistent performance at scale. SUNNYVALE, CA / ACCESS Newswire / April 21, 2026 / Graid Technology, the pioneer in GPU-accelerated NVMe storage, today announced its Agentic AI Storage Portfolio: a purpose-built family of KV cache solutions designed to eliminate the storage bottleneck that stalls "always-on" production AI. The portfolio spans three deployment tiers: KV Cache Server, KV Cache Rack, and KV Cache Platform, all built on SupremeRAID™ technology. KV Cache Platform, the portfolio's highest tier, is purpose-aligned to NVIDIA's STX reference architecture, with native BlueField-4 DPU execution on the roadmap for H2 2026. As agentic AI moves from experimentation to production, the infrastructure assumptions that underpinned single-shot inference have broken down. Models running continuous multi-step tasks and maintaining context across hours of operation generate KV cache demands that overwhelm GPU HBM.

87% of HR Leaders Have Conducted or Plan Layoffs in 2026. New LHH Research Reveals How Integrated Outplacement and Targeted Redeployment Protect Future Talent and Support Those Who Must Leave21.4.2026 14:07:00 CEST | Press release
Only 19% of employees recognize redeployment programs that 77% of HR leaders say exist, revealing a critical visibility gap that prevents organizations from retaining future-critical talent and fulfilling their duty of care to departing employees. NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / April 21, 2026 / New research from LHH, a global talent solutions provider and business unit of the Adecco Group, finds that 87% of HR leaders say their organization has already conducted or is planning layoffs in the next 12 months, driven by skills displacement, AI transformation, and shifting market demands. At the same time, 62% of employers track rehiring costs and nearly three quarters of those organizations acknowledge that rehiring costs are more than targeted redeployment and mobility. The findings, published in LHH's The Mobility Breakdown: Redeployment and Outplacement Trends Report reveal that as workforce restructuring becomes continuous, most organizations lack integrated outplacement and ta
