Product Brief

Baby clothing

Age can be divided into baby clothes, children's clothing, children's wear, children's wear, children's wear, juvenile clothes and so on.

Infant clothing differs from adult clothing in the particularity of its consumer groups.

As a special group of people who do not possess or do not have the ability of self-protection, babies have special requirements for the design and production of their products.

For example, some children like to put their clothes in their mouths and chew. After vigorous exercise, they like to wipe their sweat off with their clothes. These will increase the chance of contact between fabric and children's skin, eyes and even oral cavity.

Therefore, the fabrics used for children's wear should be more safe and environmentally friendly.

For example, some babies wear cap and clothing with elastic rope. After stretching, they can easily reach the face and eyes. If the cap, rope, skirt, strap and so on exceed the length limit, they will form too long Lasso, which will easily cause children to be caught by the surrounding objects in the process of activities, causing external injury, or choking their necks.

All these require special attention to the design of children's wear products.

For example, some decorative accessories, buttons, riveting, labels and other tensile and sewing fastness can not meet the requirements. Because of curiosity for small objects, babies will tear and gnaw these small attachments, and then suffocate and choke them.

Therefore, it is very necessary to enhance the safety of children's clothing design and use.

Key indicators

1. decomposable aromatic amine dyes.

As important

textile

One of the basic safety technical indicators, the national standard stipulates that the production and sale of textiles that can detect carcinogenic aromatic amine dyes (>20mg/kg) are prohibited.

2. formaldehyde.

Formaldehyde in textiles and clothing is mainly from various auxiliaries added in printing and dyeing or finishing processes to maintain clothing printing, dyeing durability or improve wrinkle resistance and shrinkage resistance.

The national standard stipulates that the limit of formaldehyde content in infant clothing is less than 20mg/kg.

3.pH value.

The pH value of healthy skin is between 5.5 and 7, which is neutral and acidic. The high or low pH value will destroy the balance mechanism of human skin, weaken the skin's ability to resist the invasion of bacteria, cause skin itching, dermatitis and other diseases, and even cause greater harm to health.

The pH value of infant clothing should be in the range of 4 to 7.5.

4. fiber content.

Fiber content reflects the real attributes of products, and is also the main reference content for consumers to buy clothes. Therefore, whether the fiber content is right or not directly affects the interests of consumers.

5. color fastness.

Color fastness index is mainly to check the fastness of dyes to fibers, especially for water, friction, sweat, saliva and light fastness.

The high and low color fastness directly affects the health and safety of the human body. When the products with low color fastness are in the process of wearing, the dye will fall off and pfer to the skin, which will endanger human health or stain light colored clothes, which will affect the consumers' health and beauty.

Infants often bite their clothes and other objects in their mouths, causing the children to suck the dye residue into their mouths and injure them.

Infant clothing requires more color fastness than adults.

6. heavy metals.

For clothing for infants and young children within 24 months and below, there are corresponding limits on the extractable value of 5 heavy metals such as mercury, arsenic, lead, cadmium and chromium in the industry standard.

7. clothing, sewing, strength and buttons, and other non removable accessories pulling force.

The rope, functional or decorative parts and other similar parts of different parts of children's clothing may cause mechanical potential hazards such as asphyxia, ischemia and injury.

Therefore, the standard of infant clothing also has the corresponding stipulation for the pulling force value of the non removable accessories such as clothing, sewing strength and buttons.

Shopping Tips

For consumers, when choosing children's clothing, we should give full consideration to the physiological characteristics of children's growth and development and the characteristics of lively and active nature. In order to embody the soft, breathable, comfortable, safe and healthy, we should generally choose a little loose clothing to facilitate the growth of children.

3. when choosing children's clothing, it is best to choose children's clothing with small pattern and light color, and the printing on the pattern should not be very stiff.
