Product Information

If your cot has a solid head and footboard with shapes cut out, check that your baby’s limbs can’t get caught in them.

Cot bumpers are not considered safe because of the risk of accidents once your baby can roll and move in their cot.

Tests have also found that mattresses can lose their firmness after a few years and may not be suitable for a newborn (Which, 2021b).

The safest place for your baby to sleep for the first six months, day or night, is in a cot in the same room as you (NHS, 2021). Polyester is a durable, quick-drying and insulating material that is optimal to use for textiles and as filling in pillows, quilts and furniture. Practical and emotional support with feeding your baby and general enquiries for parents, members and volunteers.Recycled polyester is just as good as virgin polyester in terms of looks, quality and function, and produces about 50% less in CO2 emissions. When it comes to content, our aim is simple: every parent should have access to information they can trust. If it’s vintage, it might need to be stripped down and repainted with paint that you’ve checked is ok to use on items like cots.

When we make products from recycled polyester, we give a second life to material that is not biodegradable and reduce the amount that may otherwise end up in landfill or the ocean.As your baby is less able to control their temperature than you are, don’t put them to sleep near a radiator or sunny window, for starters. Since IKEA doesn’t want to contribute to more virgin oil being used, we are now gradually switching to recycled and traceable polyester from sources like PET bottles. Our support line offers practical and emotional support with feeding your baby and general enquiries for parents, members and volunteers: 0300 330 0700. Instead, PET and other sources of polyester are used to make textiles, storage boxes, kitchen fronts and even lamps. The good thing is that polyester can be recycled over and over, without negatively affecting the quality of our products.

IKEA is committed to end the dependency on virgin fossil materials and only use renewable or recycled materials by 2030. To keep your baby as safe as possible in their cot, check that it conforms to British Safety Standards BS EN 716:2008.uk/conditions/baby/caring-for-a-newborn/reduce-the-risk-of-sudden-infant-death-syndrome/ [Accessed 12. According to The Lullaby Trust, Around 6 in 10 of sudden infant deaths could be avoided if no baby was exposed to smoke during pregnancy or around the home.
