As far as the whole dress design is concerned, it is possible to increase risk factors for children by placing a button, a zipper or even a thread.

The harmful substances in children's clothing mainly come from the use of dyes and chemical additives in the production process of children's clothing. These harmful chemicals remain in clothing and cause health risks to children.

The beautiful stamp on children's clothing is also the source of risk. In the process of plastic printing of clothing, it contains plasticizer -- o-benzoic acid two ester, which is a chemical substance added to the manufacturing process of plastic materials, so that the main raw material PVC (PVC) has strong physical properties become soft and easy to process. The o-phenyl two formate in plastic products may be released into the indoor and outdoor environment due to the gradual growth or abandonment of time.

Heavy metals such as lead and cadmium exist in many dyes.

The additives will remain in the garment fabric after processing.

And children's accessories (such as metal buttons) may also exist heavy metal exceeding the standard.

The new standard is completely equivalent to the EU's designated requirements.

According to the requirements of safety, the new standard divides children's clothing safety technology categories into three categories, and applies to infants and young children who are younger than 36 months and below. They should comply with class a requirements. The textile products that directly contact the skin should meet the requirements of category B at least.
