Technical Specification For Infant And Child Textile Products Will Be Formally Implemented.

In recent years, with the continuous improvement of people's living standards, imported infants and young children

The demand for products is increasing year by year. At the same time, the quality of imported children's clothing is not optimistic.

According to the white paper issued by the AQSIQ in April 2015 on the quality of import and export clothing products in 2014, the highest rate of unqualified products imported from the ports was imported from infants and children, with an unqualified rate of 36%.

It is foreseeable that with the implementation of the first national standard of infant and child textile products, it will help guide production enterprises to improve the safety and quality of children's clothing, improve the quality and safety threshold of imported children's clothing, and further protect the health and safety of infants and children in China.

For this reason, the inspection and quarantine department recommends: 1. For children's clothing production enterprises, we must grasp the new standard requirements in advance, do well in coping with the work ahead, do well in the key links such as garment design, raw and auxiliary materials procurement, printing and dyeing, and meet the new standards as soon as possible. Two.

Guan, so as not to be forced to rectify, return or destroy due to the quality of imported products after the implementation of the new standard, three, for consumers, attention should be paid to the standard content and implementation time, interim policy, etc. when choosing children's clothing, they should seriously read the clothing identification instructions, avoid buying products that do not meet the corresponding grades or labels, and find quality problems. They can promptly complain to the quality management department.

In June 1, 2016, the first mandatory national standard for children's clothing GB 31701-2015 "infant and child textile product safety technical specification" will be formally implemented.

The norm is for children aged 36 months and 3 to 14 years of age, pition to May 31, 2018.

During the pition period, products manufactured and met the relevant standard requirements before June 1, 2016 will continue to be sold in the market.

From June 1, 2018 onwards, all relevant products on the market must meet the requirements of this standard.

Compared with the original standards, the new standard of children's wear has three notable characteristics.

First, we should further standardize the safety technology requirements.

For example, in mechanical safety, no rope is required for infants and children under 7 years of age.

Attachments, such as buttons, zippers, etc., require attachments to have certain tensile strength and should not have sharp edges and sharp edges.

In terms of chemical safety, 6 new plasticizers and 2 kinds of heavy metals such as lead and cadmium have been added.

Combustion performance requirements are also increased.

Two, the requirements are fully in line with international standards.

As the first mandatory standard for children's textile products in China, the new regulations fully absorb and learn from the technical regulations and requirements of developed countries concerning the safety of baby textile products, and their strictness has been equal to or even surpassed that of developed countries.

Once the new regulations are implemented, the overall quality level of our baby textile products will be greatly improved.

The three is the scope of application specifically for baby products.

Before the implementation of the new standard, the main applicable standard of China's textile products is the national basic safety technical specification for textile products (GB18401-2010), which is applicable to adult, infant and child textile products.

In contrast, the new standard is specifically targeted at infants and children's textile products sold in our country, and the object of application is more specific and clearer.

The requirements of the new standards for grading and grading are also more focused on infant safety. The new standard divides children's safety categories into three categories: A, B and C.

Class A is the best, followed by class B, and class C is the basic requirement.

Infant textile products (applicable to <36 months range) should meet category a requirements.
