Clothing National Standard Implementation In March Many Businessmen Do Not Know

"The formaldehyde content of suits should not exceed 300 milligrams per kilogram". "PH value of clothing directly touching the skin must be between 4 and 7.5".

Since January 1st this year, ten national standards of clothing have been formally implemented.

However, reporters visited the clothing market of the island city and found that although the implementation of the new national standard has been nearly three months, most businessmen and citizens still do not know the new national standard. Little is known about the pH value and formaldehyde content of clothing commodities.

14, reporters found that many clothing stores in the island city found that many of the clothing tags on sale were rarely labeled pH and formaldehyde content.

In some famous brand clothing stores, the reporters found that most of the clothing tag still marked the word "direct contact with the skin" as before, with little indication of pH value or formaldehyde content.

In some small clothing shops or stalls, there are not even tags in some clothing, let alone label the more stringent pH and formaldehyde content.

In a foreign trade clothing store in Ningxia Road, the boss told reporters that these clothes were directly wholesale from the manufacturers. They were initially prepared for export. The quality was definitely no problem. "I have never heard of any pH value on clothes."

The reporter interviewed more than 10 people who bought the clothes randomly. Only one citizen said he had heard of ten "national standards" of clothing, but the specific content of the label was not clear.
