If you are looking to buy a baby car seat or child booster seat in Singapore look no further. Our Maxi Cosi car seats have carried more than 60 million babies home from hospital. We’ll be there for you too. We engineer our portable baby car seats with ISOFIX base, iSize compliant features, and belted options for maximum safety. So you will always make the right choice for your baby if you choose Maxi Cosi. Our safety features include
G-Cell to protect your child during a side-impact collision. The side panels of the car seat incorporate unique hexagonal cells that function similarly to the crumple zone in your car's bumper. These cells divert impact forces away from your child's body, offering superior protection. This technology is iSize standard compliant.
Our award-winning Maxi-Cosi Air Safety Technology® is a built-in airbag system that cushions the head and neck. Automatically inflating in a collision, it significantly reduces the forces on your child, reducing the risk of a serious injury.
Our crash tests are so advanced that they’re often also used by EU regulators. Experts carry out more than 2,000 crash tests on our baby car seats every year to check existing products and develop new technology. That’s why Maxi-Cosi is renowned for using cutting-edge innovation for safe, reliable car seats. Our iSize and ISOFIX products exceed these standards many times over.
We use a 5 point harness system for our baby car seats and strollers. A 5-point harness has five attachment points designed to restrain your child at the shoulders and hips, which are the most rigid parts of their body. If there is a crash, the car seat harness transfers the forces of the crash to these rigid points of the body and into the seat. As a result, tests show that the soft parts of the body, such as the abdomen, are protected from the impact. A 5 point harness is especially important in a roll over scenario.
The soft parts of your child's body may not withstand the forces of a crash in the same way as rigid parts do. When your child is restrained at the lower abdomen, for example by a 3-point harness or shield, he or she can fold over the belt or restraint. This means that the belt or restraint can intrude into the abdomen area resulting in significant injury.
Special ClimaFlow panels, breathable foam and fabrics encourage comfortable air circulation to ensure your child is always at the right temperature. This is extremely important in Singapore where cars parked in the sun can reach high temperatures.
We exceed minimum safety standards so you can be confident that your little one is as safe as possible.
In Singapore, the law requires that all children below the height of 1.35m must be secured in an appropriate child restraint or booster seat while travelling in a car. Under LTA rules and regulations the child restraint system used must comply with the United Nations standard ECE R44/04 or the newer i-Size standard, and must be appropriate for the child's height and weight.
Children who are taller than 1.35m but below 1.50m must use a booster seat and wear a seat belt. It is the driver's responsibility to ensure that all passengers, especially children, are properly secured in the vehicle.
Failing to comply with the car seat law in Singapore can result in a fine and demerit points on the driver's license. It is important to prioritize the safety of children while travelling in a car.
Picket&Rail has always offered a range of car seats suitable for different age and weight ranges, ensuring you can find the right car seat to meet your child's specific needs as they grow. The weight-based classification system typically includes the following categories:
These car seats are designed for infants and young babies, usually from birth up to a weight of around 22 pounds (10 kilograms). They provide crucial support for a newborn's delicate head, neck, and spine.
Convertible car seats can be used in both rear-facing and forward-facing positions, accommodating a wider weight range. They are suitable for infants and toddlers, typically ranging from birth to around 40-50 pounds (18-23 kilograms) in rear-facing mode and up to 65-85 pounds (29-39 kilograms) in forward-facing mode.
Booster seats are intended for older children who have outgrown their convertible car seats. They help position the child correctly with the vehicle's seat belt. Booster seats are generally suitable for children weighing between 40-80 pounds (18-36 kilograms) and taller than 4 feet 9 inches (145 centimeters).
Portable baby car seats for public transport and travel are essential for ensuring the safety and comfort of young children while on the move. There are several options available in the market that cater to these specific needs. Maxi Cosi has models that cater for these needs.
