Advanced Protection.
Complete Peace of Mind.

At Maxi-Cosi, safety is at the heart of everything we do. That’s why we created the Safety Shield™ – our most advanced safety innovation, designed to deliver unbeatable head and torso protection on every journey.

Combining two cutting-edge technologies, Air Protect® and GCELL®, the Maxi-Cosi Safety Shield™ is engineered to significantly reduce the forces your child experiences in the event of a crash – helping protect their head, neck, and torso from serious injury.

For maximum protection, Maxi-Cosi recommends extended rearward facing for as long as possible (minimum 12 months) to support your child’s developing head, neck, and spinal muscles.

When it comes to your child’s safety, we believe in protection that goes above and beyond.

 

 

How Safety Shield™ Works.

 

Head Protection – Air Protect® Superior Side Impact Protection.

Developed by Maxi-Cosi’s global safety experts, Air Protect® delivers advanced cushioning exactly where your child needs it most-around the head. In a side-impact crash, the patented air-filled cushions absorb and deflect energy, providing 180° head protection and helping to disperse crash forces before they reach your child. This redirection of energy reduces the risk of head injury and offers an added layer of reassurance every time you travel.

 

Torso Protection – GCELL® Next Generation Crash Absorbing Technology.

Inspired by the natural flexibility and strength of a honeycomb structure, GCELL® acts as a built-in crumple zone within the seat. This innovative technology flexes upon impact, spreading crash forces evenly across the seat shell to protect your child’s torso in rearward-facing and forward-facing modes.

 

Why It Matters.

The Maxi-Cosi Safety Shield™ is more than just protection – it’s peace of mind for parents. Every component is meticulously engineered and crash-tested to exceed the latest Australian safety standards, ensuring your child remains secure on every ride.

Together, Air Protect® and GCELL® create a dynamic, dual-layer barrier that helps reduce the severity of injuries – or ideally, prevent them altogether.

 

Safety You Can Trust. Innovation You Can See.

With over 35 years of expertise protecting millions of children worldwide, Maxi-Cosi continues to redefine safety for the next generation. The Safety Shield™ represents our commitment to innovation, comfort, and above all – your child’s wellbeing.

What is Safety Shield?

Offering unbeatable head and torso protection through two very distinct technology platforms, the Safety Shield is specifically designed to improve your child’s chances of surviving a crash. More specially, The cushion design of our Air Protect® Superior Side Impact Protection absorbs the energy away from your child’s head in the instance of an accident, while the GCELL® acts as a crumple zone, protecting their torso from side impact forces.

The Maxi-Cosi Safety Shield greatly reduces the severity of injuries your child faces when in the instance of a crash, or – ideally, help to prevent injury altogether.

Comprising Air Protect® and GCELL® Crash Absorbing Technology, the Safety Shield works together to contain the head and torso to minimize impact forces and deceleration rate of your child’s body during an accident.
