Three views on infant and toddler clothing purchase: labels, ropes, fabric ingredients
As parents pay more attention to the safety of infant and toddler products, how to buy safe and comfortable infant and toddler clothing has become a hot topic. The recent discussions on the entire network have focused on three key points: clothing labels, rope and strap design and fabric composition. The following is a structured guide based on hot topics compiled in the past 10 days to help parents avoid misunderstandings in purchasing.
1. Look at the tag: Information integrity determines security
According to the national mandatory standard GB 31701-2015 "Technical Specifications for Safety of Infants and Children's Textile Products", the qualified label must include the following elements:
| Must-mark items | Specification requirements | Frequently Asked Questions |
|---|---|---|
| Security Category | It must be marked with the words "Class A" and "infant supplies" | Some e-commerce products are marked with blurred |
| Ingredient content | The fiber composition and proportion must be clearly marked | Internet celebrity brand false label pure cotton content |
| Washing instructions | At least 3 symbolic descriptions | Water-washed label printing is easy to fall off |
2. Look at the rope: It is dangerous to exceed this length
Data from the Defect Product Management Center of the State Administration for Market Regulation shows that the recall cases of infant and young children's clothing rope and strap defects increased by 17% year-on-year in 2023, and the main risk points include:
| Part | Safety standards | Dangerous cases |
|---|---|---|
| neck | No rope and strap design is prohibited | Hooded drawstring suffocation |
| waist | Exposed length ≤7.5cm | Decorative straps rolled into slide |
| Pants feet | Elastic band width ≥3cm | Rubber band hurts ankle |
3. Look at the fabric: These ingredients should be avoided
Test data from the China Textile Industry Federation shows that 60% of the skin problems of infants and young children are related to improper fabrics. While choosing natural materials, beware of the following ingredients:
| Risk ingredients | Safety limit | Potential hazards |
|---|---|---|
| Formaldehyde content | ≤20mg/kg (Class A) | Cause respiratory disease |
| Fluorescent whitening agent | No detection | Causes skin allergies |
| Azo dye | 24 types disabled | Carcinogenic risk |
Expert advice:When purchasing, follow the principle of "one touch, two smell and three detection": whether the touch fabric is soft and whether there is a pungent smell. New clothes need to be soaked and washed in water before wearing it. The latest comparative experiment of the Shanghai Consumer Protection Committee shows that the pass rate of brands with a unit price of 50-100 yuan is the highest, reaching 89.7%, which is not the more expensive it is, the safer it is.
Kind tips:Recently, the State Administration for Market Regulation is launching the "Infant Clothing Quality and Safety Protection Action", and consumers can report problematic products through the 12315 platform. Remember these three key points to make your baby wear safe and comfortable!
