Happy and excited, new parents leave the hospital after the birth of their child. Many new questions arise, and the responsibility for the new family member is immense. Are we doing everything right? How do we transport our little one safely? Arrived at the car, the next challenge is awaiting the parents: the child car seat. It is always good when the car seat has been carefully selected and tested, and when the baby feels comfortable in it right from the start. Despite all the safety precautions taken, critical situations can occur when driving the car, especially at the beginning. If parents are distracted by the newborn, a short, inattentive moment is enough to trigger sharp steering manoeuvres or sudden braking movements. In such cases, parents are usually shocked and very concerned about their baby's health. Fortunately, all child car seats from well-known manufacturers usually meet the strictest requirements for the protection and safety of your child. One of the safest means of transport available on the market today is the rear-facing child car seat.
According to the Federal Office of Statistics, about 37,5 percent of all children who are in an accident with a car often suffer from serious consequences. In comparison to usual car seats the Reboard car seat contributes to reducing the risk of heavy injuries in an accident by 90%. The sitting position against the driving direction will push the body into the seat when having a frontal collision. The impact energy will spread over the whole back. Head and neck stand nearly still and will be protected against dangerous injuries.

of a baby's total weight
represents the head.
The head of a baby makes approximately 25 percent of the total weight. It is a real strenuous effort for your child to hold up the head. In extreme situations like a front collision, the musculature, which is not fully developed yet, won’t be able to hold the head. That can lead to overexpansion of the spine.
Reboard car seats will give you a crucial advantage compared to usual car seats. Through its construction, an uncontrolled head skidding will be prevented in a front collision. The several adjustable lying positions allow that the weight of the head will be carried by the soft padding. The neck musculature will be relieved. Rear-facing child car seats support the healthy development of your child's spine and muscles.
By choosing a rear-facing child car seat, you are choosing the safest type of child car seat in its class. Rear-facing car seats are already very popular in Scandinavia. Statistics speak volumes: Not a single child died in an accident in Scandinavia in 40 years by using a Reboard car seat. With these numbers it is no surprise that the certification standard ECE R44/04 will be replaced by the new "i-Size" standard ECE R 129 in the future. This standard prescribes that it is compulsory to carry a child backwards until an age of 15 months.
