On April 19, 2023, the Commission determined that ASTM F2057-23, Standard Safety Specification for Clothing Storage Units (CSUs), is a voluntary standard that meets the requirements of STURDY. In light of that determination, the Commission issued a direct final rule to adopt the requirements of ASTM F2057-23 as required by STURDY. The previous CSU rule (87 FR 72598) is stayed and superseded by the new CSU rule (88 FR 28403). The rule will be effective September 1, 2023. A read-only copy of the ASTM standard is available for viewing at: https://www.astm.org/READINGLIBRARY/. For additional information, please see CPSC’s clothing storage units business guidance page.
