Jiangsu Zhenjiang Implements The New National Standard Infant Clothing Market Survey

For parents who have babies at home, they buy babies and babies. clothing In addition to the pattern and style of clothing, the material and comfort of clothing should be considered. Now, when they buy infant clothing, they may feel a little relieved. At the beginning of this month, with the full implementation of the new version of the national basic safety technical specification for textile products, infants and young children under 3 years of age must reach the class a standards of the highest safety level before they can be sold.

New standard to expand control over infant clothing

In a new version of the national basic safety technical specification for textile products, a more obvious change is that the applicable age of "textile products worn or used" by infants and young children is revised to 36 months or less from 24 months old and below.

According to the new national standard, clothing is tested to conform to class a standards for infants and young children, and products that are directly exposed to the skin according to class B standards; those that meet category C standards are products that are not directly exposed to the skin. Among them, class a standards and infant products are the most stringent testing methods for the safety specifications of clothing, such as formaldehyde content, pH value and odor.

In fact, the new standard was introduced last year, but because the production cycle of textile products is long and the product itself does not exist, the new standard has been postponed for only one year. This means that the sales of infant clothing under 3 years of age must reach class a standards.

Children's clothing is still on sale in small shops.

On the 8 day, reporters first came to the children's clothing counters in Zhenjiang commercial city and eight hundred companion shopping mall. The children's clothing labels for children under 3 years old and below were basically marked with safety technology category A or infant products. These children's wear is expensive, more than 100 yuan. And it seems to be suitable for children of larger ages. The categories of safety technology on the tag are mostly B.

Compared with the children's clothing counters in the shopping mall, children's clothing sold by children's clothing stores on the street can be less formal. In a children's clothing shop on Mengxi Road, a reporter showed that he wanted to buy a children's clothing that two year old boy wore. The clerk immediately picked out a casual children's suit for the reporter. But the reporter noted that there is no safety technology category on the children's clothing tag, but only the clothing material is cotton. In other smaller stores, children's clothing and even the tag are not. Compared to the children's clothing sold in the market, the price of children's clothing is much lower. A summer sling will cost more than twenty yuan.

Salesmen and consumers do not know the new rules.

Although the new regulation has been implemented, sales staff and consumers are not aware of the new regulation. In a special shop with a well-known children's clothing, the reporter asked the salesperson why some children's clothes were class A, some were B, and salespersons were unknown. Therefore, "a category is cotton, definitely the best."

And small children's clothing shop, sales personnel are unaware of what category A, B, C class, "come here to buy children's clothes, usually asked whether the whole cotton, no one will ask what grade."

In this regard, many consumers also said they did not know what the new standard of infant clothing was. Ms. sun, who often buys clothes for two year old babies, says, "buying clothes for children usually buys them in special infant shops, and then hands touch the material." Ms. Sun said that she did not communicate with many parents of her peers in the same age.
