Reporter: the 2010 edition of the basic safety technical specification for national textile products originally scheduled for implementation in August 1st this year will be postponed to August 1, 2012, and how will the old and new version be pferred from August 1, 2011 to July 31, 2012?

Sun Ximin: the mandatory national standard GB 18401-2010 "national textile product basic safety technical specification" was released in January 14, 2011. Many enterprises are very concerned about it.

In order to facilitate the enterprises and the parties concerned to correctly grasp the new standards and ensure the smooth pition of the old and new standard, the National Standard Committee has made a reply to the "GB 18401-2010 < < National Textile Product basic safety technical specification > national standard". The mandatory national standard will be postponed to August 1, 2012. It is clear that "since August 1, 2012, the textile products that do not conform to the GB 18401-2010 national basic safety technical specification for textile products" shall be prohibited from production, sale and importation.

However, it is not clear which criteria should be implemented between August 1, 2011 and July 31, 2012.

In response to this, the National Standard Committee formally wrote to the China Textile Industry Association in July 29th. It clearly stated that "GB 18401-2010" national standard for basic safety technical specifications of national textile products is postponed to August 1, 2012. Before August 1, 2012, GB 18401-2003 "national textile product basic safety technical specification" and GB 18401-2010 "national textile product basic safety technical specification" can be implemented.

There are new changes in 8 aspects.

Reporter: compared with the 2003 edition, what are the major changes in the 2010 edition standard?

Sun Ximin: changes are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

The scope of application of the standard: the scope of application of the 2010 edition of the standard adds "household", delete "use", "other than the agreement between the two sides of supply and demand", applies to the production, sale, consumption and household textile products which are produced and sold in our country, and is more comprehensive and accurate.

Appendix A lists 13 categories of textile products that do not belong to the new standard category (3 new items, such as A.11 disposable sanitary products, A.12 bags, back bags, shoes, umbrellas, A.13 carpets, etc.).

Textile products for infants and young children: first, the age of application of infants and young children is modified from 24 months to 36 months, and 3.3 infant textile products are defined as "textile products worn or used by infants aged 36 months or less."

The two is to adjust the applicable height of infants from 80cm to 100cm, that is, in the 5.3 article, "note: products that are generally suitable for infants under 100cm and below can be used as textile products for infants and young children".

But it should be noted that the precondition for judging infant products is the object of the product, not the height range. The height range is only an auxiliary definition condition.

Three, the safety requirements of infant textile products are category a requirements, and all the safety and technical indicators are strictly B and C.

Product classification: in order to avoid confusion of product classification and product safety technology requirements, two concepts are classified. The 2010 version of the standard is to change the product classification in the original standard by A, B and C codes and text descriptions to the form of description directly described in words, that is, infant textile products, textile products directly contacting the skin, and textile products that do not directly contact the skin. The basic safety and technical requirements are still classified as a, B and C categories.

The pH value of class B: taking into account the requirements of water quality and resource conservation in China, the 2010 edition standard revised the pH value of B from 4.0~7.5 to 4.0~8.5.
