Definition and implementation of textile standards

1. The definition of textile standards The standard is a unified provision for repetitive things and concepts. It is based on the comprehensive results of science, technology and practical experience. It is agreed by the relevant parties and approved by the competent authority to publish in a specific form. As a criterion and basis for mutual compliance. Standardization refers to: in the social practice of economy, technology, science and management, the repetitive things and concepts are unified through the formulation, publication and implementation of standards in order to obtain the best order and social benefits. Standardization cannot be understood as an isolated thing, it is an activity process, and it is mainly a process of formulating standards, implementing standards and then revising standards. Standards are often the product of standardization activities, and the effects of standardization are manifested in social practices such as the application and implementation of standards. Standards must be constantly revised and improved in practice. Each standard is a specific topic for a certain profession, it has a certain standardized content, and there is a certain level. Therefore, profession, content and level constitute a standardized three-dimensional space, see figure. From a professional point of view, textile standards are formulated on the basis of textile science and technology and textile production practices, and are issued by recognized institutions to uniform regulations on textile production technology. However, there are many connections between various professions, and they are not completely separate. On the basis of specialization, it is necessary to solve the problems of cooperation and interface. Second, the implementation of textile standards The implementation of standards is to implement the various requirements stipulated by the standards through a series of measures into production practice. This is also a central task of standardization activities. The 'Standardization Law' stipulates: 'National standards and industry standards are divided into mandatory standards and recommended standards. The standards that protect human health, personal, and property safety and the mandatory standards stipulated by laws and administrative regulations are mandatory standards. Other standards are Recommended standards'. Due to the different objects and contents of the standards, the impact and effect of the implementation of the standards on production and management will be quite different. The implementation of the standards is a very complex task, and sometimes it is difficult to adopt a unified method. Mandatory standards must be implemented, and the requirements stipulated in the mandatory standards shall not be changed or lowered without authorization. Violations of compulsory standards shall be dealt with in accordance with the law by the competent administrative department or the administrative department for industry and commerce prescribed by laws and administrative regulations. However, a single mandatory standard system under the planning system cannot adapt to the development and demand of contemporary market mechanisms, because market demand is a combination of consumer demand, which is diversified, multi-layered, and constantly evolving. in. The establishment of recommended standards allows manufacturers to have greater autonomy in the selection and adoption of standards, and expands a broad space for enterprises to adapt to market needs and develop products. The implementation of the recommended standards is a standard voluntarily adopted by the parties concerned from a formal point of view, and the state generally does not make mandatory implementation requirements. However, as the norms to be complied with across the country and the entire industry, national standards and industry standards are generally equivalent or equivalent to adopting international standards. From the perspective of the advanced and scientific nature of the standards, they have actively adopted the standardized standards. This achievement, actively adopting recommended standards, is conducive to improving the quality of products, and is conducive to improving the competitiveness of products in the domestic and foreign markets. my country mainly adopts the following methods to encourage relevant parties to implement recommended standards. (1) Competent departments shall formulate mandatory documents and implement them within their jurisdiction. Once the recommended standard is included in the mandatory document, it becomes a standard that must be implemented. (2) The state adopts certain preferential measures to encourage the adoption. For example, my country stipulates that all products that implement national standards and industry standards can apply for product quality certification. Those who meet the requirements will be issued product quality certification certificates and allow products to use conformity marks. Enterprises have improved the quality of their products while implementing the standards. , And can obtain a higher business reputation and social reputation. (3) Implement recommended standards through contracts. Buyers and sellers can introduce recommended standards into the contract. Since the contract is bound by law, the implementation of the recommended standards is agreed in advance by the buyer and the seller and clearly stipulated in the contract, and it is legally binding.
