Children'S Clothing Exports Carefully Step Into The "Quality Gate" Of Small Parts.
With the continuous improvement of the quality and safety requirements of children and clothing in countries such as Europe and the United States, the quality and safety of children's clothing exported to China can not be ignored.
In the context of the post financial crisis, in order to further ensure the economic benefits of China's foreign trade, in the second half of 2010, with the concerted efforts of the relevant government departments and export enterprises, the overall quality level of children's clothing exported to China is on the rise, but the quality and safety situation of children's wear is still grim.
Recently, the Yancheng inspection and Quarantine Bureau found that the children's clothing exported to the European Union had some plush toy pendants without export license.
Needless to say, these plush toy pendants have become a stumbling block for the successful export of children's clothing.
Therefore, the "toy Pendant" instead of children's clothing "small parts" once again aroused great concern of the quarantine department, but also for children's clothing export enterprises once again sounded the alarm.
"Children's clothing exports are no small matter", the relevant departments remind many export enterprises: Children's clothing exports should be cautious and prudence, while focusing on the quality of children's clothing, we should also pay more attention to the details of children's clothing export.
Children's wear
Incidental toys or stepping into the "quality gate" of small parts?
It is easy to fall off and violates many standards and regulations such as EN14682, EN71, REACH and so on. In April 2010, in the EU's recall of children's clothing products, 17 Chinese children's clothes were recalled only because of the unqualified rope. The reason is that children's wear strings are prone to suffocation or risk, which again violates the EU's EN14682 standard. May 2010 to June, Chinese girls bikini (Blackcat) brand children's wear, Heb Ba/WISLA brand children's sweater and vest, Lemmi brand boy's jacket, BABY GAP brand girl swimsuit and so on. These well-known brand children's clothes are also recalled by Spain, Lithuania, Germany, Greece and other countries due to the short or too long rope of the head and neck. As early as March 2010, the European Union announced 74 children's clothing products in the global recall information, 38 cases of origin related to China, the reasons for the recall are mostly children's parts separation or decoration.
It can be said that as of June 2010, the export of children's clothing in our country was repeatedly subjected to "quality gate" because of the problem of small parts, and the phenomenon of recall was very serious.
In the second half of 2010, the present situation of children's clothing exports has improved significantly, but in the few "recalled" cases, the design of small parts such as ropes and straps is unreasonable.
It was not until the end of 2010 that children's clothing exports were repeatedly recalled due to the problem of small parts.
However, there was a wave of unrest.
According to "China National times" reported on January 4, 2011, Yancheng inspection and Quarantine Bureau recently made a report to one
Exit
When carrying out on-the-spot inspection, clothing enterprises found a batch of children's garments exported to the European Union with a plush toy pendant attached to each pair of trousers.
It is understood that these toys are purchased separately from customers and provided to clothing manufacturers. They are attached to children's clothing as a gift according to customer requirements.
However, export toys are commodities for inspection by law. According to the relevant regulations, they must be produced by enterprises with the qualification of export toys (Registration), and pass the inspection and quarantine. After obtaining the certificate of change, they will be able to inspect the export together with the garments.
Needless to say, these plush toy pendants have become a stumbling block for the successful export of children's clothing to the European Union.
So, looking at the current situation of children's clothing export in China, will these toy pendants fall into the footsteps of children's "small parts", forcing our children's clothing export enterprises to be subjected to "quality gate" again?
In fact, not only is the export of children's clothing, but with the approaching of the lunar new year, many smart children's clothing manufacturers and sellers are heading for the "festival economy". They not only seek novelty and difference in children's clothing styles, but also add small ornaments, small toys and other pendants to children's clothing according to the current popular elements, so as to seize the market and increase sales.
Turning to the safety problem of children's clothing with toy pendants, the Henan clothing association responsible person interviewed by reporters pointed out that because it is a gift, the quality problems attached to children's clothing such as small toy pendants are easy to be ignored.
In view of the present market of children's clothing, these small toy pendants are mostly "three no" products, and there are serious security risks.
"As for the export of children's clothing, in recent years, with the continuous improvement of the quality and safety requirements of children and clothing in countries such as Europe and the United States, the export of children's clothing in China has been repeatedly subjected to" quality gate ", and the phenomenon of recall and sale has occurred.
Therefore, the quality and safety problems of small toys hanging parts for children's clothing should be highly valued by the relevant inspection and quarantine departments and children's clothing export enterprises. We must avoid the small toy pendants, such as children's "small parts", which will make our children's clothing export difficult.
The person in charge said.
Safety considerations are not considered.
"Compared with last year, the current situation of children's clothing exports in China has improved, but there are still many standards, details, management problems need to be improved."
Turning to the quality problems of children's clothing exported to China, on the morning of January 25th, the staff of the Henan provincial Entry Exit Inspection Bureau Technology Center interviewed by reporters said that at present, the export of children's clothing in China is still dominated by sample processing, and the style is designed by foreign businessmen. However, some foreign designers are in the new fashion and neglect the safety problem of children's clothing. However, Chinese enterprises lack the verification of the safety performance of children's clothing.
Therefore, for our country, some export children's clothing quality problems are caused by foreign enterprises.
However, the quality problem of most children's clothing exports is mainly caused by the neglect of details in the production and export process of children's clothing.
"European and American countries and regions have the quality and safety performance of children's clothing, especially the rope on children's wear."

The requirements for such small components are extremely strict.
For children's clothing, toys and other small pendant inspection requirements are similar to the export requirements of children's toys.
Therefore, the toy pendants attached to children's clothing should be the same as clothing. Not only do they have the qualification to export toys, but they can also be exported with clothing after passing the inspection and quarantine.
According to the staff, according to the regulations of import and export trade in Europe and America, there are strict rules for children's toys with small toys, such as expansion rate, chemical materials, hearing and visual impairment.
For example, the EU EN71 standard in the expansion rate of the provisions of the requirements for children's clothing small pendants of the expansion rate should not exceed 50%, otherwise once the child is swallowed, easily constitute the risk of choking choking.
In addition, EU directive 1999/45/EC stipulates that liquids that can be exposed to children in toys should not contain toxic, harmful, corrosive, irritating and sensitive substances, nor contain carcinogenic, induced organic mutation and reproductive toxic substances according to 1999/45/EC regulations. Formaldehyde content in textile and paper components of children under 3 years of age should not exceed 30 mg / kg, and formaldehyde release from resin bonded wood parts should not exceed 80 mg / kg.
In addition, in accordance with the different types and components of toys, the European standard EN71-9 has made detailed provisions for the requirements of flame retardants, coloring agents, aromatic amines, monomers, solvents, preservatives, plasticizers and other organic compounds in toys.
"Therefore, in order to further ensure the quality and safety performance of children's clothing meets the relevant standards and reduce the barriers to clothing export, the export enterprises should attach great importance to the quality and safety of children's toys attached to toys, so as to clear the" stumbling block "on the export road.
The staff finally stressed.
The absence of institutional monitoring should be cautious and prudence in the export of children's clothing {page_break}
"Children's clothing exports are no small matter, so the relevant state departments should strengthen the supervision of children's clothing exports.
At present, according to the current trade situation of children's wear and clothing in China, it can not be classified as "clothing". It should be further classified into the ranks of toys, food and other "children's products" according to the complicated actual conditions, and it will conduct all-round supervision according to the latest developments at home and abroad.
To sum up, to solve the existing problems of children's clothing export, the most important thing is that children's clothing export enterprises should focus on small areas, be careful and meticulous.
At the same time, we must actively keep pace with the times and adjust the direction of enterprise development according to the latest developments in the world.
Speaking of how to further strengthen the management of children's clothing export trade, Henan apparel industry association responsible person said.
Compared with foreign countries, the biggest drawback of the current import and export trade of China's clothing industry is the lack of a relatively sound risk management mechanism.
As far as children's clothing exports are concerned, the relevant regulatory departments of our country should set up a relatively strict supervision and management mechanism similar to food products, toys and other export products for children's clothing export enterprises, and improve the licensing and auditing systems, so as to ensure that all trade enterprises of children's clothing export enterprises have laws to follow.
At the same time, the relevant government departments and garment enterprises association should also further strengthen cooperation, make positive, reasonable and effective guidance to foreign trade enterprises, so that enterprises can gradually establish a relatively sound management system, enhance enterprise's sense of hardship, further strengthen enterprise risk management, and promote the sustainable and healthy development of enterprises.
