Nanchang: Non-compliance infant apparel products are still openly sold

From August 1st, according to the new national regulations, textile supplies for infants and young children under the age of 3 must be of the highest safety class A category. Now that the new regulations have been implemented for more than a month, the reporter found in major shopping malls and street children's clothing stores that no Compliance children's clothing still exists in large numbers, and parents and sales staff are not even aware of this requirement.

Reporter survey:

Street children's clothing is mostly unqualified products. On August 1 of this year, the new National Technical Code for Basic Safety of Textile Products replaced the 2003 national standard, which stipulates that children's clothing worn by infants and young children under 3 years old and below must be in clothing. The words "Infant & Baby Products, GB18401-2010, Class A" are indicated on the tag.

Yesterday morning, the reporter went to the pedestrian street, Dieshan Road, Nanjing West Road, and Wanshou Palace Mall to investigate and found that a number of children's clothing stores on the label of 1 to 3 year old infants and young children's apparel were written with only "first grade" and "qualified". The words "products," etc., are marked with the words "GB18401-2003" in the "safety technology category" column of most of the tags. In Japan and South Korea's children's clothing store, such as "Nishimatsuya", "Two Children" and "The Bear's House", the reporter found that all the clothes's tags included only a brief Japanese, Korean, and even an ingredient label, in addition to the price. A reporter at the Wanshou Palace Mall saw that most of the children's clothes sold here are three products.

Afterwards, the reporter went to a large baby goods supermarket called “Beibei Bear” in Honggu Beach. In the children’s wear area, most of the children’s clothes were seen for infants and children under 3 years old, but the logo on the tag did not match the new one. "National standard".

Seller:

Do not understand the "national standard" but give an alternative interpretation of the new national standard, according to formaldehyde content, pH value, odor and other indicators, the children's clothing is divided into A, B, C three security levels, including A-level clothing for infants and toddlers to wear, B Grade clothing can be worn personally. Grade C clothing can only be worn. In an interview, the reporter found that many store sales personnel are unaware of what the new regulations are and respond to reporters' questions in a variety of answers, even giving alternative explanations.

On the third floor of a large shopping mall, the children’s wear area is engaged in promotional activities. The reporter took a child’s clothing that was playing at 50% discount and asked the clerk why the clothing sold was not affixed with a new standard tag passed by the national clothing. Pointing to the "2003" security technology category of clothing tag information told reporters that clothing is a qualified product. Another counter salesman's interpretation of the "A, B, C" standards is: "A is the first-line product of their brand, B is the second-line product, and C is the third-line product."

Subsequently, the reporter interviewed several other infants and children's clothing counters. Most of the clerk's understanding of the category A and non-A is the type of the size number, and admitted that he did not know what the A category actually refers to, nor do they know what the country is. new standard.

Afterwards, the reporter went to a children's products franchise store named "Polaifang" located on Yuanmingbei Road. There are some children's clothes on sale at special prices. When looking at the tag, the reporter found that the safety standard bar of the old product tag for special sale was affixed with a discounted price tag, and the new product children's clothing tag for regular sale was a regular “GB18401-2010”.

Parents:

Do not understand the new standards for infant clothing In the survey process, the reporter found that not only businesses have no knowledge of the new rules, and most parents are ignorant of this. In the Nishimatsu House children's clothing store, a mother is buying children's clothes for 2-year-olds. When a reporter asks if she knows the new standards for baby clothes, she said she never heard that children's clothes still have standards. Buying clothes mainly depends on prices and styles. There is also a feeling of touch is not more comfortable, never thought about children's clothing also has a security problem.

Ms. Tu, who is purchasing children's clothing at "Polai Room," said that she would buy clothes for her children to pick better brands, and pay special attention to the quality of children's underwear. I would mainly look at whether the clothing fabrics are pure cotton and whether they are soft. Fading and other issues, as far as other content on the label has never been concerned, but also do not understand, "I do not know what this series of numbers and A, B, C class is, so I do not know is a national standard, but later to buy Clothes will pay attention," Ms. Tu said.
