Frequently Asked Questions
How is Fibby certified?
Fibby certified to the most recent and strictest safety standard that came into effect on October 2021: EN 13138-1: 2021. This is also stated on the safety label inside.
What ages is Fibby for?
Fibby is designed for children between 15 and 30 kg. So that's about from 2 and up to 6 years old.
Where can I practice with Fibby?
Almost all swimming pools in the Netherlands organize general "practice hours" to practice learning to swim yourself. Check the website of your swimming pool when these practice hours take place. Parents also practice with Fibby during recreational swimming.
Is the mobile app multilingual?
The app is currently available in Dutch and English (both in text and in videos for parents and children). We expect to be able to offer the app in more languages soon.
What is Fibby made of?
The orange buoyancy aid is made of EPP (expanded polypropylene). The biggest advantage of EPP is its lightness or buoyancy as it is 90% air. Unlike expanded polystyrene (EPS), known from packaging, EPP is a lot harder, so it does not crack or tear like expanded polystyrene.
Fibby's harness is made of neoprene, something commonly used in wetsuits. Thanks to the 50% stretch, it feels like a second skin. You just need to adjust the strap for an ergonomic fit.
How tall and heavy is Fibby?
- Width: 19cm / 7.5in
- Length: 27cm / 10.6 inches
- Height: 16cm / 6.3 inches
- Weight: 263 grams
Can Fibby come on a trip?
Fibby is super light, smaller than you expect and therefore fits easily in your (hand) luggage. Tip: Many Feebs clip their Fibby to their backpack/hand luggage, so your friend doesn't take up any space. Good trip!
