At present,

Manufacturers and brand holders have the responsibility and obligation to invest more energy in ensuring products.

1, according to the survey results, more than 65% of consumers are concerned about the safety and health problems of children's clothing.

However, whether children's clothing in the market has met the expectations of consumers? Is there any hidden danger?

Ms. Lv Yanmei: at present, many children's clothing on the market will have a large number of foam printing, such as the cartoon design behind the chest, attracting children's eyes at the same time also buried a health hazard.

In order to make the printing soft and bright, excessive plasticizers and lead may be added to the printing process. The excessive standard of plasticizer and lead will have a negative effect on the reproductive system and intelligence level of children.

Secondly, the design of rope drawing on children's clothing is quite common. Although functional and decorative, rope pulling is also a potential hazard.

There have been incidents of strangling asphyxia due to excessive rope pulling abroad.

(international standards stipulate that it is dangerous to pull a rope longer than 14CM).

In addition, many windproof and waterproof clothing will be applied to coating design.

If the baby is not careful to cover the face, it will cause suffocation.

2, what are the relevant requirements at home and abroad for the safety of children's clothing?

Ms. Lv Yanmei: safety is the first element of children's clothing.

To achieve safe production of children's clothing, we should start with the selection of clothing materials and even from the cultivation of raw materials, and ensure that the fertilizers, feedstuffs, growth agents, herbicides, disinfectants and so on are not pollute the environment. Meanwhile, the products are not polluted by themselves. During the production and processing of fabrics, no harmful gas is released, and drainage should also comply with the relevant hygienic requirements.

According to the above requirements, there are the following standards in the domestic textile products market: GB/T18885 2002, "eco textile technical requirements", GBl840l-2003 "national textile product basic safety technical specification" GB; for children's clothing parts safety standards, there are "children's wear rope and belt safety requirements", "Safety specifications for children's tops and belts" and "implementation specifications for improving the safety of children's clothing design and production"; in foreign markets, the United States adopts standards such as CPSIA, ASTMF1816-97 (2004), etc. the EU adopts Oeko-Tex Standard 100 standard, in addition, there are EN14682 for children's belts and small components.

3, as an ordinary consumer, children's clothing safety rules and regulations do not understand, it is difficult to tell whether there are problems with the product, how to choose a safe guarantee children's clothing?

Ms. Lv Yanmei: as a professional clothing testing and testing personnel, and as a mother of a child, I would like to share some easy to judge methods with my parents.

The principle of simple learning is:

1. avoid large area foaming printing.

2. avoid too much unsound little decoration.

3. avoid pulling too long.

4. pay attention to the breathability of coated garments.

Due to chemical problems in the production process, such as azo dye exceeding standard, formaldehyde exceeding standard, heavy metal exceeding standard, etc., it can not be identified by naked eyes. For this reason, consumers should try to buy brand children's clothing with reputation and quality and good quality for protection.

Of course, the most important thing is to cultivate the conscious concern of the manufacturers about the safety of children's clothing and improve the safety level in the production process of children's clothing. This is the fundamental way to ensure the safety of children's clothing.
