National Product Register

Independent information about vehicle restraint systems and accessories for children and adults with disabilities and medical conditions

Special purpose car seats

The national register of special purpose car seats only features car seats that have been independently assessed as part of our Australian Safety Assessment Program (AuSAP).

There are special purpose car seats available for both children and adults. They provide features not available on Australian standard car seats such as swivel base, footrest, extra postural support and recline.

Australian standard car seats

The national register of Australian standard car seats features car seats more commonly used by children with disabilities and medical conditions.

Australian standard car seats are independently assessed as part of the Child Restraint Evaluation Program.

Specialty harnesses/vests

The national register of specialty harnesses and vests includes the products available in Australia today.

There is little evidence base informing the selection and use of specialty harnesses and vests in Australia. To address this, MACA is leading an Austroads project to investigate specialty harnesses/vests with the aim of including them in the Australian Safety Assessment Program (AuSAP). This project will also deliver safety expert recommendations for the selection and use of specialty harnesses/vests.
