There Are Many Problems In Children's Clothing Violation.

Here world

The Xiaobian of the net tells you that children's clothing is illegal, and there are many big cards.

Recently, the problem of children's clothing has been frequent. Many local industry and commerce departments have found that a large proportion of children's clothing is not qualified, and children's clothing failed rate of some areas even exceeds 70%.

Reporters visited the market recently found that children's clothing market does exist many problems, in addition to consumers can not directly through the naked eye to determine the formaldehyde exceeds the standard, pH value is beyond the standard, and even the most basic product logo has many problems, so that consumers feel uncomfortable when buying.

Taking infant clothing as an example, reporter survey found that although the new national standard of textile has been issued for two years, children's wear market is still not standardized, and even H&M, UNIQLO and other major companies have "direct violation".

Only class A is available for infants and young children.

Since August 1, 2012, the national textile product quality supervision and inspection center and other drafting of the revised version of the national basic safety technical specification for textile products (GB18401-2010) has been fully enforced.

Compared with the old version published in 2003, the scope of "infant clothing" in the new national standard expanded.

First of all, the age range of "infant clothing" is extended from 2 to 3 years old, while the applicable range of height and size is increased from 80 cm to 100 cm.

In addition, the new GB also stipulates that the implementation criteria should be marked on the product badge, and the safety technology category of the product should be marked according to the requirements of GB18401.

That is to say, infant clothing must be marked with "baby products", "class a", "GB18401-2010" and so on. At the same time, product specifications (i.e., height, chest circumference, waist circumference and so on) should be marked.

Textile products that do not meet the new standards will be prohibited from production, sale and importation.

Guo Wensong, deputy director of the national textile products quality supervision and inspection center, told reporters that according to the new national standard, clothing can be divided into three safety levels: A, B and C. It is clear that only a class of products can be worn for infants and young children. Clothing with direct contact with the skin should meet the technical requirements of B products. Clothing that is not directly exposed to the skin should meet the technical requirements of C products.

But if the latter two are infant clothing, they must also meet the technical requirements of class a products.

Different levels also mean that the limits of some harmful substances are completely different. The class A is the most stringent. For example, the requirement for formaldehyde is class A is less than 20mg/ kg, while class B is less than 75mg/ kg, C class is less than 300mg/ kg.

The new standard is still in operation for two years.

Nowadays, the new national standard of textile products has been implemented for more than two years. What is the market situation?

In Tianyi wholesale market, reporters found that there are many children's clothing labels, of which there are even the old version of the 2003 standard.

A Kaka paradise product, its safety technology category annotation: 18401-2003, B class.

But no logo can let consumers judge what kind of height children are wearing.

The Lodi tiger produced in Guangdong is not only labeled as the old national standard in 2003, but even labeled "GB" in the standard as "CB".

Products like this are still not only sold in the wholesale market, but also in some street stores.

In addition, some children's clothing brands may recognize that new standards should be enforced, so that the "2003" in the "GB18401-2003" of children's wear badge can be changed directly to "2010".

Two

No valid information is found on the label.

Compared with some products, there are still labels on what kind of safety technology category standard clothing. There are many children's clothes that do not mark the information that should be tagged.

Such as Jinli Gil's children's clothing, only labeled "first-class goods" and prices and other information; and a sweater marked the color, although the size of "100", but it simply can not find "baby products" and "class a" logo.

For these products, sales staff said that this is a foreign trade sold to domestic sales of children's clothing, so there is no logo, no brand and manufacturers.

What's interesting is that there are businesses that simply hang up ambiguous labels, such as Miao star children's wear series: the labels are printed with "GB18401A/B", A and B are tagged at the same time, and consumers are at a loss as to what to do. Two

The reporter asked a salesperson whether the coat worn by a two year old child was in line with the national standard a class standard. The clerk replied vaguely, "this is pure cotton. There is no problem. Please feel free to wear it."

Three

Standard absence of children's clothing sold online

Reporters in Taobao search "infant clothing" has about 40 thousand and 400 baby, some brands such as David, Bella, Teletubbies, Harding and other brands, have detailed picture information and testing report shows that it is in line with the "GB18401-2010A class" standard.

But there are still a large number of infants and young children's clothing Taobao shop in the publicity page has not clearly marked the new national standard of evidence, when a reporter asked whether the customer service products conform to the "GB18401-2010A class" standard, the answer is also vague, claiming that "should be consistent, our products are qualified to sell."

The reporter asked him to shoot labels or signs, the customer service also known as the location of the inventory and customer service office is not located.

Taobao sellers often attract "buyers", such as "foreign trade import", "Korean children's clothing", "pure cotton (95% and above)" and so on, but not only can they produce proof of compliance with the new national standard, but also in the way of dimensioning, such as "6 yards" and "7 yards", is obviously different from the "height / waist circumference" marking method in the national standard.

Reporters read a lot of comments, a buyer said, "to tell the truth, it is really not like the shop owner described, when I received a little disappointed, the work is actually the price of dozens of pieces of quality, do not worry about the cotton, with a sterilized vacuole to dare to wear to the baby."

UNIQLO and other big brands are also illegal.

If the wholesale market, street stores, and electronic business channels appear unqualified infant clothing is expected, then the international big name direct violation is astounded.

In Xidan joy shop H&M shop, the reporter found that here sells a model of 90/56 (height / chest) top coat, does not have "baby supplies" the word, simultaneously nominal B.

In Xinjiekou Xinhua Department Store UNIQLO store, the reporter found that an underwear labeled "80/48" was also tagged as "B" directly, and the label on the implementation standard is handwritten.

In addition to the production enterprise, WAL-MART, a large retailer, found that a girl's cotton padded dress was sold. The label was "100/50" and the label was for baby products. But the original "A" character on the label of the same type of different product was erased by the correction fluid, but it could not be found in other grades.

As for the specific reasons, the staff are not clear.

For these large enterprises production and sales of infant clothing products, Guo Wensong said that even if the label is qualified, it does not necessarily mean that the product is qualified.

The logo of these large enterprises is not qualified, and only this point can be concluded that the products are not qualified. As for whether the harmful substances exceed the standard, they need professional testing to know.

But no matter what the result is, consumers will not be able to see such products.

Five

Blurred boundaries between infants and children

Reporters noted that in real life there are still some 2 year old babies who grow up fast and have to choose 100 centimeters or more. However, 100 centimeters of children's clothing can be implemented according to the national standard, so that mothers worry that the content of hazardous substances in products may bring harm to children who are still infants.

Some shrewd enterprises obviously have not let go of such business opportunities.

Reporter found in H&M, a model of 110/56 "children's knitted jacket", marking the implementation of the safety technical standard is B, but it is also known as 2-4 years old children.

There are many clothes that are labeled like this. Besides H&M, ZARA also has such labels.

Since the product claims that the scope of the population includes 2 year old infants between -3 years old, is it illegal to implement the standard non a class? Is there any suspicion that the enterprise has the loopholes in the national standard?

"From the consumer's psychological point of view, this understanding is reasonable, but according to the national standard, it is not illegal for businesses to label so, because the age group is an additional markup", Guo Wensong said. The national standard solves the general problem. There are always some special groups that are difficult to cover. Consumers can have targeted choices. The testing center also finds that there are some enterprises in the market, and their 0-6 year old infants and young children wear all kinds of clothing standards, and even some adult clothing.

Reporters found yesterday at Le friend's children's clothing store in Sanyuanqiao, including the underwear, jacket, trousers, gloves, socks, hats and other 0-6 year old products are indeed labeled "category a", "baby products" words; shop sales of some maternity wear is also implemented a class standards.

"Enterprise implementation is higher than the national standard of enterprise standards, this is the enterprise's autonomous self-discipline behavior, it can certainly enhance the market competitiveness", Guo Wensong also stressed, but the enterprise promised to implement the class a standard for the children's wear that can be implemented B class standard 100 cm above, and if it is detected that it has reached B class but has not reached the class a standard, it is also illegal.

Rarely look at labels and styles.

Reporter survey found that not only children's clothing shop owner, many parents do not understand the new national standard of infant clothing.

A two year old cow lady told reporters that she bought clothes for children not only online shopping, but also in large shopping malls and supermarkets. Most of them looked at the beautiful style, the material and handle of clothes, and never noticed labels.

Some consumers recognize brand names. In the H&M store, the reporters found that many parents bought them when they bought them and bought them when they felt good. When the reporters told the labels, the mothers who bought them almost did not know.

"Consumers' awareness of clothing safety needs to be improved."

A pregnant baby company official told reporters that the company has repeatedly found that many mothers only pay attention to food safety, in fact, children wearing poor clothing also exist great harm, we must not underestimate the product grade logo, if an infant clothing if formaldehyde exceeds the standard may cause children leukemia.

Unqualified children's clothing is harmful.

What are the hidden dangers of unqualified clothing? "The most important thing is carcinogenic substances, such as aromatic amine dyes, formaldehyde," Guo Wensong said, pH is also an important indicator.

It is understood that clothing pollution has two sources: first, the clothing materials in the process of planting, in order to control pests and diseases, use pesticides, fertilizers, herbicides and so on, these toxic and harmful
