Our own Test Centres
At our design centres in Germany and the UK, designers and engineers use state-of-the-art research facilities,
including our own crash test rigs, to ensure the highest possible standards, choosing the most suitable materials,
testing under extreme conditions and taking every measure to ensure the highest quality for all our products.
BRITAX belongs to a small number of manufacturers
whose qualitymanagement systems follow the strict
requirements of the car industry,conforming to ISO/TS
16949.
During crash simulations, advanced test dummies
measure key physical parameters such as movement
and acceleration. These measurements, together with
the analysis of slow motion sequences from high-speed
videos help us develop safe, effective and ergonomic
child safety systems.
As part of our ongoing commitment to drive forward the development of child safety, BRITAX applied for
numerous patents, constantly adopting new technologies and investigating real life accidents to deliver new and
leading innovations.
Duration tests
In test laboratories duration tests are performed which
prove the functioning of components under various
loads. Specially designed devices and measuring
equipment are used.
A test set-up for instance simulates the function and
the clamping effect of the strap adjuster and the
abrasion of the webbing in constant use. Furthermore
the load capacity of the buckle is tested by opening and
closing it many thousand times.
