How Should Children's Clothes Be Bought?

A few days ago, China's first industry standard specifically formulated for the safety of infant clothing and clothing -- "infant clothing standard" has been formally implemented.

It should be emphasized that all provisions concerning infant and young children's clothing safety are mandatory in the new standard. After the implementation of the standards, infant clothing with unqualified heavy metal residue and safety design will not be sold. This initiative is undoubtedly a preventive agent for infant clothing market.

However, a market survey found that many consumers and even sales staff were not aware of the new national standards for infant clothing, and they also did not know enough about the safety of baby clothes and how to choose them. In this regard, the inspection and quarantine department reminds consumers that when choosing infant clothing, we should give full consideration to the physiological and psychological characteristics of babies, and compare them with appropriate methods.

First, we must see clearly the logo of infant clothing. According to the relevant regulations of the state, infant clothing is less than 24 months old, and its formaldehyde content, pH value and color fastness are all stricter than those of other grades. To this end, when buying clothes for infants and young children, parents should carefully check whether there are "class a" and "baby products" on the logo. At the same time, do not buy clothes that are too bright or have strong smell to prevent formaldehyde from exceeding the standard.

Two, we must pay attention to the work of infant clothing. The main function of infant clothing is to keep warm. Parents should try to buy clothes without ornaments or accessories, so as to reduce the possibility of decorations falling off, so as to prevent the skin of children from scratching. In addition, infants and young children grow faster and larger. The pattern should be simple and convenient to replace, and the top of the neckband is best without a rope. The maximum collar of the pullover is larger than 52 centimeters.

Three note that infant clothing must be marked "not dry cleaned". Infants and young children are more delicate than adults. Dry cleaners may contain substances that irritation to infants and young children. Dry cleaning may cause harm to infants and young children. So when parents choose to buy infant clothing, they should pay attention to the washing and reminding of clothes. In addition, parents should promptly remove clothing labels after buying clothes, and then wash them before washing them.
