Britax: Safe on the road
Britax Römer is celebrating its 50th anniversary as a manufacturer of car seats. The German company, based in Ulm, is also launching a new and exciting product:
The inflatable “Lufki” car seat in red and blue, developed in Germany in 1966, of which Römer only produced several hundred units, was followed in 1969 by the launch of Peggy. Just a few years later, the black and orange cult model was one of the few seats to achieve a rating of “Very Good” from independent German testing institute Stiftung Warentest. The company’s milestones in car and child child safety include the ISOFIX anchorage system that Britax developed in cooperation with Volkswagen in 1997.
The BABY-SAFE i-SIZE provides babies with enhanced protection as the infant seat complies with the new EU standard ECE R129 (i-Size).
The youngest member of the GO family, the Britax GO BIG, provides newborns with a completely flat recline position.
