Chinese Official: ZARA And Other Garment Brands Are Unqualified Batches.

The latest statistics released by the General Administration of quality supervision, inspection and Quarantine on 27 may show that in the first half of 2014, the value of imported garments imported from China for inspection was valued at US $2 billion 760 million. The inspection and quarantine departments seized 12305 cases of unqualified imported garments, with an amount of US $47 million 667 thousand and 500, of which 396 cases involved quality and safety disqualification (safety, hygiene, environmental protection and anti fraud projects).

Li Jing, director of the Information Office of China's General Administration of quality supervision, inspection and quarantine, said at a news conference held on the same day that the quality and safety of imported garments in the first half of the year should not be ignored.

The "fast fashion" brand is still unqualified.

Among the 396 imported garments with unqualified quality and safety, among the top five brands with the highest number of unqualified batches, 4 were "fast fashion" brands, namely, FOREVER21, ZARA, H&M and MANGO. The number of unqualified ones was 107, accounting for 27.02% of all the unqualified ones.

Some items of clothing are not qualified.

In 12305 cases of import clothing quality and safety risk information, 1442 cases of infant clothing unqualified information, accounting for 11.72%.

Statistics show that the proportion of children's clothing is not large enough, and the pH value is not easy to stimulate children's skin easily, and then cause skin diseases.

In addition, the use of Chinese instructions is not qualified.

In the risk information of import clothing quality and safety, the overwhelming majority of the unqualified reasons are unqualified in Chinese instructions, accounting for more than 97% of the total garment disqualification, which is the primary reason for the quality problems of imported garments.

It is indicated that the origin of unqualified imported garments is relatively concentrated.

Judging from the origin, the clothing quality and safety cases originating in Italy are the highest, and there are more unqualified batches in neighboring developing countries such as Vietnam, Korea and Bangladesh.
