Consumers Are Seldom Concerned About The Safety Standards Of Clothing.

As we all know, clothing quality is related to physical health, and clothing safety standards must be understood. Recently, a reporter interviewed found that the latest version, which was introduced as early as August 1, 2012. Technical specification for basic safety of national textile products "(GB18401-2010) the mandatory standards encountered embarrassment in the execution process, and many consumers are not clear about how to use the product information to select clothing correctly and protect their own safety.

National mandatory standards have been implemented for 3 years.

When textile products are dyed and processed, dyes and auxiliaries will be added. When these chemicals are left to a certain extent, they will cause serious harm to the skin and organs of the human body. Therefore, in order to ensure that the textile products are harmless to human health in the course of production, circulation and consumption, as early as 2001, the state departments concerned formulated the national basic safety technical specification for textile products (GB18401-2001). In response to the changing clothing safety problems in the textile market, the state issued a new version of the national basic safety technical specification for textile products in 2003 and 2010 (GB18401-2003, GB18401-2010). The latest version of the national basic safety technical specification for textile products (GB18401-2010) has changed all the technical contents to mandatory, replacing the 2003 version standard.

In this new standard, textile products are divided into 3 categories according to their final purpose: infant textile products, textile products directly contacting the skin, and textile products that do not directly contact the skin, corresponding to three categories: "A", "B" and "C". The standard also requires: "infant textile products must be marked" Chr "(34) on the instructions. Baby products Chr (34). Other products should be marked on the instructions on the basic safety technical requirements, such as a, B or C. The product is marked by a category.

Since August 1, 2012, the national mandatory standards also stipulate that textile products that do not meet the standards are prohibited from production, sale and importation.

Old versions of product identities are still in use.

In June 5th, reporters visited the Dongxing Fashion Plaza in North Fifth Ring Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, and found that some clothing brand products were very confused on the safety standard labels, and there were some famous brands.

In the three floor "Chuang-tzu" women's clothing store, the reporter picked up a dress and found that the "standard" was written on the product label "GB18401-2003 B class". That is to say, according to the information on product identification, the safety standard of this dress is the old version which has been eliminated in 2003. The journalist also picked up another dress. The logo of the product was only marked "GB18401 B". It was not known whether the product was executed in 2003 or the new version in 2010. For the reporter's doubts, the salesperson faltered and said, "our products are all qualified." On the four floor of the "Lining" sportswear shop, there is only a "GB18401 B class" on the logo of a seven guard trousers, and the same label is used on Anli Fang's underwear.

In a women's clothing store called "luxury tune", the reporters found no content about the safety technical standard on the product logo. Another "Shun Mei" clothing store, marked on the product label safety technical standards turned out to be "GB18401-2009 B category". After repeated inquiries, reporters can not find the standard number "GB18401-2009" standard, that is to say, this is a "nonexistent" standard.

Consumers rarely pay attention to safety standards.

The promulgation and implementation of the national basic safety technical specification for textile products (GB18401-2010) guarantees the quality and safety of textile products. However, in the interview, the reporter saw that consumers knew little about the "sword" that safeguards textile safety.

"I buy clothes, the most important is the style, material, price. Safety standards are too professional for ordinary consumers. There should be no problem in the shopping mall. " A woman interviewed by reporters answered this question.

"No breakage, no coloration and no shrinkage, I think the quality of this garment is qualified. In other respects, we can't detect it, "said another woman who was choosing a skirt.

A man said that when choosing clothes, he would pay attention to the safety category of product labels. "I know that B is a textile product that directly contacts the skin, and C is a textile product that does not directly contact the skin. But the specific standard number is not clear.

"Product identification is not in conformity with national mandatory standards." Kong Liping, a specialist in fiber inspection of the national textile quality inspection center, said, "GB18401-2010 is a mandatory standard and has been in operation for 3 years. The above terms must be implemented." But Kong Liping also said that the "product is not safe" can not be directly drawn from the "non-standard logo". "GB18401-2010 for formaldehyde content, pH value and decomposability of textile products. Cancer aromatic amine dyes We must have clear requirements, and we must pass professional tests to determine whether the products are really safe.
