Who Are CYBEX?
Gone are the days of car seats having a singular purpose of simply transporting a child from A to B. Now, with a rise in safety regulations and advanced testing, the protective elements of these essential products are of paramount importance. CYBEX are a trusted manufacturer of car seats plus other childcare accessories that place high importance on keeping babies and children safe during car travel.
The company’s three core values are safety, quality and intelligent functionality² which have led to their position as one of the most trusted suppliers within global markets today. Originally founded in Germany, CYBEX further elevated their production and design capabilities when they merged with Chinese company Goodbaby International Holdings Limited in 2014. With the Chinese company being a known leader in global safety standards and innovation, this collaboration has only positively impacted the safety potential that CYBEX car seats offer.
What Makes CYBEX Car Seats Some of the Safest?
Now for the reason you have clicked on this article: why are CYBEX car seats considered some of the safest models available across global markets? We can assure you there are many reasons why this is the case.
Choosing a car seat is a tough task even for the most experienced of parents or guardians. There is a constant influx of new products and also ever-increasing regulations which means the choice is overwhelming for many. However, the main reason that CYBEX has firmly positioned itself as a leader is because all boxes are confidently ticked.
Recognised With Official Awards
CYBEX have won more than 500 industry awards over the years cementing their position as leading safety experts in various markets. As well as being recognised with certain products winning unique awards, there have also been recognitions from major industry bodies including ADAC, AGR and Reddot.
Considering each of these awards have been secured as a result of extensive testing, reliability and a speed of innovation that competitors are not always able to match, we think this is a clear market of the safety that each of the CYBEX seats provides.
Alignment With Car Seat Regulations and Safety Testing
One of the core values of CYBEX as a brand has always been to remain aligned with the latest safety regulations. This doesn’t only mean working alongside recommended adjustments but also ensures the company is a leader in testing and development.
The CYBEX T Series of car seats showcases advanced safety and comfort features, tailored to meet the needs of growing children. Each model in the range is compliant with the latest i-Size regulation UN R129/03³. While the CYBEX Cloud T i-Size is designed exclusively as a rear-facing infant car seat—as per legal requirements—other seats in the T Series offer both forward- and rear-facing options, depending on the model.
It’s important to note that CYBEX’s innovative approach to child safety is evident across the T Series, with features like impact-resistant materials and integrated airbags, such as in the Anoris T i-Size, a forward-facing seat that uniquely includes an integrated airbag system for enhanced protection. This highlights CYBEX’s commitment to redefining safety standards while ensuring maximum comfort for children at every stage.
Safety Features and Leading Technology
In addition to the previous point, the CYBEX collection of car seats includes many other innovative features and technologies. Take the Cybex Cloud T PLUS Rotating i-Size Baby Car Seat, for example. This product includes a range of safety features as follows:
- Stretch & Lie-flat Technology to ensure the correct posture can be achieved for growing children. This is a key safety feature as it ensures any travel-travel injuries can be eliminated which may occur as a result of infants not being properly supported.
- 180° rotating mechanism when used with the Base T which allows parents to safely and securely fasten their little ones into position. Without this, it can be tough to ensure that all safety markers have been met.
- Breathable fabrics to ensure infants are not susceptible to overheating during car journeys which is another key safety issue parents should be aware of.
- Robust integrated harness system which is not only adjustable but also secures reliably to ensure infants are always protected even if they are moving around. This means even the most wriggly of travellers can be kept in a safety-optimised position.
- Compatible with the Base T and Base Z2 for secure installation to offer complete peace of mind that car seats are correctly installed should an impact occur.
Another safety feature associated with car seats are the alarm-integrated CYBEX bases. These products will emit a continuous beeping if a car seat has not been correctly installed. This ensures that no matter what distractions are currently a factor for parents, they will never head off on a journey without a CYBEX seat being properly installed.
