This page is dedicated to promoting and informing consumers, the industry and our membership about the safe use of juvenile products, industry issues and the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association. JPMA, formed in 1962 with 29 industry companies, has grown to include more than 400 companies in the United States, Canada and Mexico. JPMA developed an extensive Certification Program to help parents select juvenile products that are built with safety in mind.
Parents can look for the seal on product packaging.
JPMA has distributed more than three million of the complimentary brochures. JPMA sponsors Baby Safety Month each September to raise the public's awareness of important baby safety issues. Each year in Dallas, Texas, JPMA sponsors the International Juvenile Products Show, the industry's leading trade exhibition. The show, attended by thousands of buyers from around the world, is ranked one of the fifty largest association-sponsored trade shows in the country and 57th largest overall in the United States in 1999. Expectant parents, baby-store owners, and company presidents alike can visit JPMA's web site for reliable information.
