The Number Of Complaints Of Clothing Shrinkage Has Increased Rapidly By &Nbsp; Who Is The Initiator?

Newly bought clothes were found to be serious after washing. shrink I can't even wear it even because it shrinks. Perhaps many older generations have encountered such annoyances. Recently, however, there seems to be an outbreak of this problem and more and more Transformers products. Then, how does the shrinkage problem come into being and how to solve it?

" Shrinking complaints "Rapid growth"

"In the past, there were more complaints about commodities such as mobile phones, household appliances, leather shoes, and so on. In recent days, complaints about shrinkage of textiles have increased rapidly. The main content of the complaint is that after the purchase of sheets and clothing, the shrinkage is serious after the first cleaning. Some of the indicators for shrinkage are not marked when buying. " The statistical results of the 12315 complaint reporting and command center of Taiyuan industry and Commerce Bureau show that

Not long ago, Mr. Liu bought a set of car accessories for a newly bought car at an automobile accessories store. When I started using it, I was very satisfied with it, whether it was color or feel. But after a period of time, the first time washing appeared obvious shrinkage. Seeing that the newly purchased car accessories "thin" could not be used, Mr. Liu was very angry and looked for businesses to settle his claims. But under Mr. Liu's many requests, the businessman only gave Mr. Liu 300 yuan's compensation.

For a long time, the "shrinkage rate" has not been valued or neglected. Because when the product is purchased, its shrinkage rate is not within the scope of sense, so it does not affect sales to a large extent. Even if it is found that there is a shrinkage phenomenon, it can be ignored for various reasons.

Experts in the industry say that there has been a more serious shrinkage event recently - a group of infant knitted garments exported by a garment company for export has been returned because of shrinkage. This phenomenon has aroused widespread concern in the industry and has become the trigger for the "shrinking door" outbreak. It is reported that when returned, the batch of clothing was found to have a shrinkage rate of 3.8%, exceeding the requirements of 3% of foreign customers.

In fact, aiming at the problem of shrinkage, the national standard of textile products was made clear in 2004: the rate of washing size change of top grade textile products should not exceed 2% - 3%, the first grade product should not exceed 2% - 4%, and the qualified product should not exceed 2% - 5%.

However, through understanding and finding that the whole market is becoming more and more obvious, manufacturers have tagged the product type, fabric texture, washing methods and so on, but few textile enterprises have marked "shrinkage rate".

"Shrinking process" is " The initiator of evil "

"The shrinkage of textiles is a" big problem ", and so far it has not been solved. Wang Baojun, director of the national textile products quality supervision and inspection center, expressed concern. As a matter of fact, shrinkage has always been a major concern of enterprises. Only because there is no uniform standard and testing method, many enterprises are left unsatisfied.

For their products in Beijing Wumart store spot checks two test size change rate exceeding the standard, Shanghai red Fuji Corp in the enterprise internal investigation, the detection rate of change is 4.6%, there is a difference; Jiangsu Mei Luo household textile company is also trapped in the shrinkage event, they think that the current detection standard is inconsistent, sometimes according to 2 meters to measure, sometimes measured according to 2.05 meters, the amount of time when the test is greater than the specified degree; and Nantong's Jiangsu textile decorating company chairman is more blunt, unqualified products in the company test qualified, get outside the test is not qualified.

"We should draw up a shrinkage rate according to different grades, different fabrics and different uses, because the consumption groups are inconsistent and the actual uses are different, so we should treat them differently." Yao Yunqiu suggested, "we can let standard officials and experts pay more attention to the actual situation of enterprises, and the revision of standards can take a few years' transition, not necessarily in place."

A large portion of the shrinkage of textiles is due to the fact that enterprises want to hide their advantages. As we all know, to control shrinkage of textiles, it is necessary to undergo a pre shrinking process. This process, whether spent in the process, or professional and technical personnel, will have to spend a lot of expenses.

Yao Yunqiu pointed out that the cost of an enterprise can increase by 7% to 8% by adding a pre shrinking process, and the sales will increase if shopping mall or supermarket is sold, and the products will be less competitive, and the profits of enterprises will be lower.

In addition, there are also some small and medium-sized enterprises in order to save a large amount of testing costs, often lead to their product testing is not up to standard. Some enterprises introduce relatively simple detection tools and professional inspectors themselves, while some enterprises send raw materials directly to professional inspection organizations. But because the two kinds need a large amount of testing cost, some small and medium-sized enterprises have eliminated the testing links in the actual operation.

Avoid shrinking and start with the source of water.

Looking at the overall situation, the main source of shrinkage of textiles lies in producers. According to the reporter's understanding, shrinkage of textiles is mainly due to the influence of raw materials, density, yarn thickness, production technology and other factors, which requires textile manufacturers to strictly control the quality when they produce. The inspection and quarantine department reminds the export garment enterprises that they should do the following:

First, careful orders. We should carefully take orders according to our production capacity and stipulate clearly the quality of export garments when signing contracts. Avoid blind production and produce unqualified products.

Second, the fabric is qualified. When purchasing fabric according to customer needs, the manufacturer must check the quality of the fabric, and must inspect the fabric purchased. Because the quality of fabrics directly affects the shrinkage of finished products.

Third, the process is rigorous. In the production process, the manufacturers should pay attention to the finishing process, so that the shrinkage rate of the fabric can be effectively controlled within the standard or customer requirements. For example, in the process of refining and bleaching, the tension should be minimized; in the mercerizing process, the tension should be mastered, the width of the fabric should be maintained, the weft tension should be controlled, the inspection of the mercerizing process conditions should be strengthened; for the special material varieties, further improvement measures must be taken, and the weft shrinkage ratio should be reduced to the required range.

Fourthly, strengthen self-examination and self-control. Inspection should be strengthened before the finished product is released to ensure that the shrinkage of garments is qualified before shipment. At the same time, we must mark the "shrinkage rate" on the product labels, so that consumers can better understand the details of the products and accept the inspection of consumers, so that they can be continuously strengthened and improved.
