Hubei random inspection of textile and clothing nearly 30% of the quality is unqualified

What is the current situation of Hubei's textile and garment industry? What are the main safety indicators of textiles and garments? What harm will the unqualified cause to the human body? What problems should be paid attention to when purchasing? On October 12th, the Hubei Provincial Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision (hereinafter referred to as the Provincial Bureau of Quality Supervision) held a press conference on textile and garment quality improvement with the theme of 'clothing dressing up life, quality benefits people's livelihoodRelated situation. The main operating income of enterprises above designated size has increased significantly. The textile and garment industry is one of the five pillar industries in Hubei Province. At present, there are 1563 garment enterprises above designated size in the province. The primary operating income of enterprises above designated size ranks seventh in the country and the second in the six central provinces. The growth rate ranks fourth in the country and the second in the six central provinces. The products of 58 textile and garment enterprises have been rated as 'Hubei Famous Brand'. In 2016, 30 new companies declared 'Hubei Famous Brand' products. According to Liu Siyuan, deputy director of the Provincial Quality Supervision Bureau, in the textile and garment supervision and inspections conducted by the Provincial Quality Supervision Bureau in the past two years, the pass rate has been increasing year by year, and no systematic, regional, and large-scale quality safety accidents have been found. , But there are still quality problems such as unqualified content of textile fabrics, unqualified basic safety indicators, unstandardized markings, unqualified quality indicators such as adhesive interlining peeling strength and cracking strength, and unqualified main functional indicators of functional clothing.   According to reports, in the textile and garment supervision and inspection and law enforcement inspection carried out by the Provincial Quality Supervision Bureau, a total of 1,114 batches of textile and clothing were randomly checked, and 318 batches were unqualified. Among them, 171 batches of unqualified ingredient content accounted for 53.8% of the total number of unqualified batches.  Decrypt the major clothing safety issues that affect health  When most consumers buy textiles and clothing, they mainly care about its color, style and texture, but ignore the safety. So what are the main safety indicators of textile and clothing? Wang Ke, chief engineer of the Provincial Fiber Inspection Bureau, introduced that the safety indicators of textiles and clothing include formaldehyde content, PH value, color fastness, peculiar smell, and decomposable carcinogenic fentamamine dyes.   'Wearing clothing with unqualified safety indicators will cause harm to the human body.' Wang Ke reminded that decomposable aromatic amine dyes can cause human malignant tumors and cause bladder cancer, ureteral cancer and other malignant diseases when they come into contact with human skin. Long-term exposure to low-dose formaldehyde can cause chronic respiratory diseases, women's menstrual disorders, pregnancy syndrome, lower newborn physique, chromosomal abnormalities, and even nasopharyngeal cancer. The unqualified pH may cause skin irritation. Wang Kezuo advises consumers to pay attention to the following points when buying clothes: look at the tag to understand the composition, content and safety technology level of the fabric; judge the quality of the fabric by hand, smell whether there is any peculiar smell; you can also use the napkin or Wipe the white handkerchief on the fabric to see if it is stained.   will regularly publish the 'blacklist' of quality-distrustworthy enterprises.   The quality of clothing is directly related to the people's health and other vital interests. Liu Siyuan, deputy director of the Provincial Bureau of Quality Supervision, introduced that in the next step, the Provincial Bureau of Quality Supervision selects 50 qualified textile and apparel companies to provide pair assistance each year to help cultivate brands and strive to achieve a zero breakthrough in the textile and apparel industry of the Yangtze River Quality Award; Quality violations, large amounts of goods, and repeated investigations shall be severely dealt with in accordance with relevant laws and regulations; a 'blacklist' of quality untrustworthy enterprises shall be established and published on a regular basis.
