Analysis Of Children'S Clothing Recall In Europe, America And Other Countries

In recent years, European and American countries have formulated different safety codes and guidelines for the main safety risks of children's clothing in order to safeguard their own interests.

For example, the United States has put forward specific requirements for children's costumes in the guide to safety regulations for children's coats, ASTMF1816-97 (2004) and CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission), "children's jacket belt tightening belt guide", and the EU EN14682 standard has also made clear provisions for the general requirements of girdle or ropes for children under 14 years of age.

Recently, our domestic children's clothing has been frequently asked to recall by the European and American countries because of pulling the rope to cause the neck of the child to be threatened. It is urgent to seriously analyze the reasons for the recall and propose corresponding countermeasures.

The reasons are:

The need to protect domestic enterprises abroad.

Since the outbreak of the financial crisis, countries such as Europe and the United States have been using various forms of trade protection measures to restrict the import of textile and clothing in China because of their poor economic conditions. In order to protect the economic interests of their textile and garment enterprises, recall has been adopted as a form of technical barriers more and more.

Foreign customer product design problems.

Due to the defects in the design of foreign customers' products, most of our manufacturing enterprises use OEM subcontract mode to manufacture products. They simply believe that products produced according to the requirements of customers can only be short of necessary and sufficient identification power for the design of products in line with foreign technical regulations.

In addition, when most enterprises sign contracts with foreign customers, they do not pay enough attention to make a clear agreement on the conformity and responsibility of the product itself, resulting in losses.

Lack of awareness of domestic production enterprises.

A large number of managers and practitioners of textile production enterprises in China are not knowledge-based and lack sufficient knowledge to expand their training. In many cases, the products themselves can not be reasonably judged.

In particular, the outbreak of the global financial crisis has caused some production enterprises to get into a predicament that can not be done alone. Without order, they will not evaluate the production arrangements blindly, so that the products will not meet the strict requirements of the destination countries.
