The True Quality Of Fur Products In The European Parliament

The European Parliament has passed a new example to stipulate that the clothing sold in the European Union must be specified on the label if any animal derived material is used.

This provision is designed to ensure that consumers can distinguish genuine or artificial fur and leather products.

In addition, the European Parliament asked the European Commission to complete the study before 2013 to discuss possible harmful effects in textiles.

Chemical substances

What's the impact on health?

Earlier this year, the European Parliament and the Council of Ministers of the European Union reached an informal agreement on the contents of the regulation, which is now formally approved by Parliament.

The text of the agreement is still subject to approval by the member states.

Under the proposed regulations,

Textile label

It must be clear whether the product contains non textile parts, such as fur and leather, from animals.

This helps consumers identify products containing artificial fur or leather and products containing raw materials, which are particularly important for consumers with allergies.

Initially, the European Parliament also suggested that products imported from third countries should be enforced mandatory with labels of origin.

The proposal was rejected by some member countries.

The Council agreed to request the European Commission to submit a report on the feasibility of the origin label scheme.

The plan aims to provide consumers with accurate information about the origin, so as to ensure that the source of textiles can be traced back.

In addition, the European Parliament has asked the European Commission to carry out feasibility studies on the following:

Harmonization of nursing labeling requirements is currently voluntary in the European Union.

The uniform size labeling system for clothing should be established and implemented throughout the European Union.

Marking textiles

Sensitizing substance

。

The European Commission should also assess whether there is a causal relationship between allergic reactions and chemicals in textiles, such as coloring agents, biocide and nanoparticles, and whether new technologies such as microchips and radio frequency identification (RFID) can replace traditional labels in the future.

The European Commission must complete its report by September 2013, and may then introduce a legislative bill.

The proposed regulation on textile labels is expected to be adopted at the next meeting of the Council and will be published in the official communiqu of the EU in the second half of this year, and will take effect 20 days later.
