LANCASTER, Pa., Jan. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Chicco USA today announced that six new and soon-to-be released Chicco products have earned UL GREENGUARD Gold certification, expanding its line of essential baby gear made from materials that help to create a healthier environment surrounding baby by reducing the risk of exposure to harmful chemicals. Spanning car seats to bassinets and strollers, Chicco products that have earned the respected certification now include the OneFit™ ClearTex® All-in-One Car Seat, KeyFit® 30 ClearTex® Infant Car Seat, KidFit ClearTex® PLUS 2-in-1 Belt-Positioning Booster, LullaGo® Anywhere LE Bassinet, Corso™ Primo ClearTex® Travel System and Bravo® LE ClearTex® Stroller (coming soon).

To earn GREENGUARD Gold certification, Chicco products were scientifically proven to meet a rigorous third-party chemical emissions test that measures the level of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) that may be present in indoor environments. Developed with at-risk groups in mind, such as children and the elderly, the GREENGUARD Gold standard means products have been tested to meet low chemical emissions, contributing to healthier air quality around baby.

"We are extremely pleased to be among the first juvenile product brands to earn UL's rigorous GREENGUARD Gold certification across multiple product categories," said William Hasse, Vice President of Marketing for Chicco USA. "We recognize that sometimes children spend significant time in car seats, strollers and bassinets, so we're proud to offer a range of products that provide a healthier air quality to their occupants. Through our Sustainable Parenting Initiative we continue to innovate with the aim of providing parents with better solutions for their families."
