ZSP - BeSafe iZi Modular / Twist / Turn SIP+

SIP+ is an additional safety feature that is placed on the side of the following BeSafe child car seats: - BeSafe iZi Modular X1 -BeSafe iZi Modular X2 -BeSafe iZi Twist -BeSafe iZi Turn How does it work? It is constructed to absorb energy and reduces the load.. SIP+ is fitted onto the side of the seat that is facing the car door and functions in two ways. First, SIP+ reduces the distance between the seat and the door, thus shortening the movement that will take place in the event of a side impact. Less movement means less force on the child. Second, SIP+ functions like a car's crumple zone and absorbs the energy of an side impact. Why is side impact protection important? Children are especially vulnerable in side impacts. By sitting quite high in the car, they are less shielded by the metal sections of the car body. Additionally, cars do not feature any crumple zones towards the sides like they do in the vehicle front. Consequently, the car itself absorbs very little of the impact energy in a side accident. That is why side impact protection provided by the child car seat is essential to protect children in the best way possible. All BeSafe seats feature energy-absorbing material in their side wings and deep headrests. The extra side impact protection SIP+ further reduces the forces on the child€™s head and neck area by up to an additional 20% in a side impact.
