  • Institutional Collaboration– We work with healthcare organizations, nonprofits, and businesses to achieve safety goals.

Show Your Commitment to Button Battery Safety

The Button Safe™ mark highlights your dedication to safer, child-focused product design. Displaying this certification assures families and partners that your products meet the highest safety standards for button battery protection.

Every child deserves to explore their world safely. Through awareness, education, and advocacy, BBSI works to ensure that button battery injuries become a thing of the past.
