Experts Talk About Standards: What Is The Gap With International Standards?

According to incomplete statistics, up to now, there are about more than 1000 textile and Garment Standards in China, and the related ISO

First of all, the standard system is different.

ISO or foreign textile standards at the national level, the main content is the basic standard, focusing on unified terminology, unified test methods, unified assessment tools, so that the data provided by the parties are comparable and versatile, forming the standard system based on the basic standards, plus the standard system of the relevant product standards that are matched with the end use products.

For a large number of products, there is no national standard in foreign countries. It mainly stipulates the specifications, performance indicators, inspection rules, packaging and other contents of the products in accordance with the purpose of the product or the price paid by the buyer.

Many of the existing textile product standards in China are products of the planned economy system. The standard system is mainly based on product standards, which are divided into raw materials or processes. At present, it is mainly divided into cotton textile printing and dyeing, wool textile, hemp textile, silk, knitting, line belt, chemical fiber, yarn dyed fabric, etc. besides the performance indicators, the standard also includes the contents of inspection rules, such as factory inspection, type inspection and reinspection, and has formed the standard chain of all kinds of raw material products, yarns -- natural cloth - dyed and dyed fabrics.

In recent years, standards have been set for use, but the proportion is very small, such as "GB/T18863-2002 ironing textiles" and "FZ/T 64010-2000 far-infrared textiles".

Secondly, the functions of standards are different.

Abroad, the open standard at the national level is used as the technical basis for delivery and acceptance. It is formulated from the perspective and need of guiding users to purchase products. It is called trade standard, and the enterprise standard is the technical basis for organizing production. The technical definition of such trade standard is relatively concise, general and flexible.

On the contrary, the function of most of the product standards in China is to organize production according to the needs of guiding enterprise production. People call it production standard. In order to facilitate the production of enterprises, standards in terms of technical content are generally more specific, more detailed and relatively dead.

With the development of market economy, new varieties of textile products are constantly emerging, which determines that concise and flexible trade standards can better meet the needs of the market.

The scope of production standards in China is relatively narrow, and the number of products covered is relatively small, resulting in a large number of standards, but still can not keep pace with the development of products.

Third, there is a gap in the standard level.

Because of the different functions of standard, standard technology

According to the standard laid down by the production standard, China can not apply trade relations to the producers and purchasers. For example, different color fastness grades are determined according to dyestuff types and processes.

Turning over the product standard, a large number of standard texts contain "superior products equivalent to the international advanced level, the first grade is equivalent to the international general level" and so on. In fact, only a single index level reaches the international level, but the comprehensive performance is not up to the standard. There are also individual standards for the bid marking, and its contents are also quite different from the foreign standards.

Fourth, the role of standards is different.

With the gradual reduction of international trade barriers, all countries are making use of the relevant provisions of TBT to make technical barriers, and the effective way to create technical barriers is regulations and standards.

With the weakening of the restrictive role of traditional non-tariff barriers, the developed countries use their advanced technology to control imports by making technical standard barriers.

Most of the control rights of technology standards are in the hands of developed countries and regions such as Europe, the United States, Japan and so on. China's product standards are rarely accepted by international agencies and converted to international standards. They are still passively accepted, and they can not make full use of their national standards as developed countries, protect their own trade and effectively supervise the quality of imported products.
