Enterprises Can Only Keep Up With The New National Standard If They Eat Their Inventory.

August 1st was originally the time for the formal implementation of the new version of the basic safety technical specification for National Textiles (GB18401-2010) (hereinafter referred to as the new specification), but the Ministry of industry and information technology recently issued a document that the revised version of 2010 standard is more stringent on textile products, considering that there is no shelf life for textile and apparel products, and that many enterprises' inventory will not be available on the market after the implementation of the new code.

"The Ministry of industry and Commerce has decided to postpone the implementation of the new regulation for one year.

People in charge of quality inspection departments of the county urged that textile enterprises, especially those attacking the domestic market, should seize the opportunity to postpone the new national standard and intensify the "solution" inventory.

The new national standard is more applicable.

Higher safety factor

"Compared with the old version of the basic safety technical specification for national textile products, the application of the new code is greater and the safety factor is higher."

Jin Zhangjin, the quality and standard bureau of the Quality Supervision Bureau of the County Quality Bureau, introduced that the new standard mainly modified the scope of application. In addition to retaining the original textile products used for clothing and decoration, new household textile products were added, and the textile product catalog which did not fall within the scope of this standard increased from 10 to 13 categories.

"More importantly, the new regulation is more stringent for the control of toxic and harmful substances, and it also puts forward higher requirements for the ability of inspection institutions."

Jin Zhangjin said.

For example, the carcinogenic aromatic amine increased the "4- amino azobenzene", the total number reached 24 species, and the limit value of aromatic amines must be less than 20 mg / kg.

At the same time, the sampling requirements such as color fastness, formaldehyde, pH value, and decomposition of carcinogenic aromatic amine dye were increased.

For infant textiles, the standard of saliva color fastness and infant skin protection is added.

1 year buffer period

Enterprises intensify shipment and digest

According to the old national standard, in the first half of this year, our county textile failed rate was 4.2%, and the color fastness, pH value and so on were the key points in the failure rate.

"According to the new national standard, our county textile failure rate will be greatly improved."

Analysis of the industry, because of the rapid growth of the domestic market, many textile and garment enterprises this year are facing the problem of excessive year-on-year growth in inventory. The new national standard is mandatory standard, that is, since August 1, 2012, the textile products that do not conform to the new specifications will be banned from production, sale and import.

To this end, after the announcement of the new GB content, let our county enterprises digest the existing goods on the one hand, and start producing products according to the new specifications on the other hand.

As for the inventory digestion problem, the person introduced the general practice in the industry.

"For inventories, sales are usually first discounted.

Products that are not yet sold after a period of time will be calculated according to "Jin" and awarded to some large discount stores.

However, the source said that due to the implementation of the new specification, some of the old norms of inventory have become products with a "shelf life". If the discount stores want to "eat in" these stocks, they will also face certain policy risks.
