Ontario, California (PRWEB) September 30, 2014 -- Baby Trend, a leading juvenile product manufacturer, is proud to participate in The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) first-ever Juvenile Products Congressional Product Showcase as part of its annual Baby Safety Month celebration.
This Showcase is the first of its kind to exhibit to Members of Congress and their staff the wide variety of products that make up the U.S juvenile products industry.
“The Juvenile Products Congressional Product Showcase is an opportunity to see, test and feel how the juvenile product industry is working to advance innovation, design, comfort, safety and convenience for parents, caregivers and children,” said JPMA Executive Director Kelly Mariotti.
“As a family owned business, it is our honor to participate in the showcase exhibiting products designed to meet the needs of parents and baby,” said Brad Mattarocci, General Manager of Baby Trend. “We will be showcasing products from the new Baby Trend Go-Lite Collection which was designed using lightweight aluminum to combine safety and contemporary design for the on-the-go family. The Baby Trend Hybrid 3-in-1, an affordable and safe car seat, will also be on display. ”
Baby Trend joined with more than 40 manufacturers from the juvenile products industry to provide information and education to legislators, regulators and other stakeholders about advances in product safety for car seats, strollers and other baby gear items.
Additional product categories featured at the showcase include:
• Mobility
• Feeding
• Health and Safety
• Sleep
• Soft Goods
All products displayed at the Showcase, with a combined estimated value of $15,000 will be donated to the National Center for Children and Families.
“JPMA member manufacturers truly made this event possible, and we thank them for their generous donations and support,” added Mariotti. “We are proud to represent an industry that is so generous, innovative and compassionate!”
