Why GACS?

Child safety is a passion, and our mission is clear - to drive a higher standard of child safety through more effective products, improved standards and better education. In the UK and elsewhere, over 50% of under 5's visit hospital accident departments every year, and by far the majority of these accidents happen in the home. We can change this.

Home Safety

Nothing beats careful adult supervision, but home safety products are an invaluable second line of defence. Our member manufacturing companies are committed to developing products that meet stringent GACS standards for quality and effectiveness.

Safety Standards

...are an important tool to ensure that products are safe and effective, yet many home safety products are not regulated by any public safety standard. The GACS team is working with leading testing houses to develop appropriate standards that will fill this void.

Knowledge is a great thing

Much of home safety is common sense, but as a new parent, there is a lot to learn, so tips and advice is invaluable.
The GACS team work to ensure that their knowledge, gained from decades of experience in the industry, is shared as widely as possible.

What we do...

THE ON-GOING AGENDA

We constantly improve existing products and develop new ones, ensuring we make intelligent use of technological advances and meet the needs of a constantly changing home environment. At the same time, we work on safety standards committees and develop our own for where there is no current standard.
