There Are Three Reasons For The Frequent Warning Of Children'S Wear In Zhejiang.

In 1~10 months this year, the main export markets such as the European Union, the United States and Taiwan announced 69 children's products, an increase of 81.6% over the same period last year. They have become the largest and fastest growing non food consumer goods reported, especially in the EU and Taiwan regions, which increased by 63.3% and 157.1% respectively.

Recently,

The entry-exit inspection and Quarantine Bureau notified the export of children's articles in our province, and pointed out three main quality problems.

Risk of suffocation due to shedding of "small parts"

This kind of bulletin involves 26 cases, an increase of 73.3% over the same period, mainly due to the fact that the decoration parts of children's shoes are not solid, puppet's eyes, and screws and other small parts are easy to fall off and disassemble, including products belonging to or containing small parts, which are easy to cause suffocation risk such as choking or even death.

The main reason for the notification is product design defects and neglect of control of key links in production. For example, enterprises generally lack the ability to verify the samples and design schemes provided by customers, and the products lack of anti dropping devices (such as adding concealed ropes) and warning instructions. Such small parts can not withstand external force tests such as twisting, falling, falling, soaking, and impact. They also include quality defects of raw and auxiliary materials and production process problems, such as poor management of assembly and sewing processes.

Plasticizer is at a higher risk.

A total of 25 children's products bulletin covered "plasticizer", that is, the content of o-phenyl two formic acid exceeded the standard, an increase of 78.6% over the same period, mainly for children's toys, children's cars and stationery.

Due to the potential reproductive toxicity of o-phthalate two, it has become the primary cause of chemical safety risks for children's products.

"Rope belt" exists strangulation suffocation risk.

There were 3 such notified cases, mainly

The safety problems of rope belts - improper design or layout of straps, ropes and girdling, such as products such as neck and waist, may lead to potential mechanical damage such as injury and entangling.

The European Union and the United States have strict requirements for the rope on children's wear.

For example, the European Union EN 14682:2007 "children's clothing safety code - children's clothing rope and belt" provides for the clothing for children under 14 years of age, with the requirements of the head, neck, waist, back and crotch below, and the head and collar of children under 7 years of age are not allowed to have rope, rope and functional rope.

Us ASTM F1816-97 "safety regulations for children's coats" requirement: children with a size of 2T-12

In the area of the hood and neck area, no form of rope should be set up; when the waist and bottom pendulum of the children's coat size 2T-16 is fully opened, the length of the rope beyond the garment part must not exceed 75 millimeters, and the rope ends should not have rings, knots or any other accessories. The continuous strip must be fixed at the center point (avoid the single side rope caused by stretching).

Compared with adults, children lack the ability to identify potential risks. Therefore, countries around the world, especially developed countries, are paying more attention to children. All kinds of products that may induce children's injury risk are concerned.
