The weather is getting cold, and many owners are ready to add some bedding. After the reporter visited, many of the owners favored the colorful products. However, recently, there have been media exposures, too "fancy" home textile products are not safe, contain carcinogenic aromatic amine synthetic dyes, or the presence of fiber content and dye fastness items are not qualified, which makes the recently warmed home textiles The market has cast a haze.
Some inferior home textile products, even if washed many times, still have serious discoloration, and may have cancer risk
"Fancy" products may contain carcinogens
Recently, there have been media exposures, and the more unsafe the home textile products are, the more unsafe they are. The reporter visited and found that most of the home textile products on the market attract consumers with bright and colorful patterns. Many consumers only pay attention to their appearance when they buy, but they ignore the fact that these "fancy" products may be "invisible killers" that endanger health. Ms. Zhang told the reporter: “I bought a bright yellow three-piece suit, which is very beautiful. Soon after use, the skin will appear red, itchy and itchy. Going to the hospital for examination is a symptom of skin allergy.†She suspected that it might It is caused by the dye used in the three-piece set not meeting the standard. In addition, the problem of bed color fading also plagues many consumers. “The sheets purchased half a year ago have been dripped after repeated washings,†Ms. Liu complained.
Not long ago, the Beijing Municipal Administration of Industry and Commerce conducted a random inspection on the quality of the multi-piece beddings on the market. The results showed that the dye fastness and fiber content of some commodities did not meet the relevant standards. According to incomplete statistics, in recent years, home textile products represented by bedding have been exposed for many times due to problems such as carcinogens, color fastness and unqualified fiber content. In 2013, the Beijing Municipal Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Beijing Consumers Association respectively issued a bedding test report, which detected that the product contained a carcinogenic aromatic amine synthetic dye, and the dyeing fastness and fiber content were not qualified. Subsequently, the Guangdong Provincial Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision also announced the results of the special supervision and inspection of 27 kinds of product quality in Guangdong Province. The quality of 19 batches of products was unqualified, which also involved unqualified items such as dyeing fastness and fiber content, and easily faded after washing. In March of this year, 26 of the 53 defective products released by the Guangdong Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce were exposed to synthetic dyes containing carcinogenic aromatic amines.
In this regard, Zhu Xiaohong, secretary general of the China Household Textile Industry Association, said that textiles should add some dyes, auxiliaries, etc. in the production process. Inferior home textile products even contain carcinogenic aromatic amine synthetic dyes, which are highly toxic, from the appearance of textiles. Can not be distinguished, can only be discovered through technical inspection, and can not be eliminated. According to reports, products containing carcinogenic aromatic amine synthetic dyes in the long-term contact with the human body, if absorbed by the skin will spread in the human body, can cause a variety of diseases, and even cause cancer.
Industry disorderly business as the main cause
In these several exposures, I can always see or hear the carcinogenic aromatic amine synthetic dye. What is the carcinogenic aromatic amine synthetic dye? Zhao Yimei, assistant general manager of Beijing Yina Textile Products Co., Ltd. said: "It is a kind of Textile products are more toxic and more toxic dyes. Because of the low cost and fast coloring of these dyes, some small textile factories usually use them. However, as early as a decade ago, China has banned the use of aromatic amine dyes. The National Technical Specifications for Basic Textile Safety (GB18401-2010) clearly stipulates that the use of carcinogenic aromatic amine synthetic dyes is prohibited in textile products for infants and young children, textile products that are in direct contact with the skin, and textile products that are not in direct contact with the skin. â€
“A home textile product is usually designed by the enterprise first, and then the order is printed to the printing and dyeing factory. The printing and dyeing factory purchases the fabric and printing and dyeing according to the requirements. After that, the home textile enterprise sends the inspection and acceptance of the fabric, and the finished product is finished by cutting, sewing and other processes.†Zhu Xiaohong said that the recent exposure of various indicators of home textile products has not reached the standard. In fact, there have been problems in the supply chain of grey cloth, printing and dyeing. “Home textile companies rarely produce fabrics directly, and are only responsible for subsequent processing of finished products, and these follow-up work will not produce carcinogens,†she said.
Why do home textile products frequently have quality problems? Yu Yuenan, vice president of China Textile Business Association, said that in recent years, although the home textile industry has developed rapidly, the industry concentration is not high, and disordered operations have occurred. “Many small enterprises usually sell products at low prices. Some well-known enterprises have also been forced to follow low prices or reduce product requirements. He also believes that some home textile enterprises are not able to control the various links in the industry chain, and the supervision is not strict, which has led to the flow of problem products to the market. "Most home textile enterprises are in the industry. The chain only exists in the sewing and production process. The process of 'weaving' and 'dying' is usually handed over to other enterprises. If the control is weak, every link in the industrial chain may have problems, and it is impossible to prevent it."
Zhu Xiaohong holds the same view: "Some supply chain companies are still using the products to reduce the cost and know that the carcinogenic aromatic amine synthetic dyes are harmful. Some enterprises have not tested the raw materials to save costs, so that the inferior products become the fish of the net; Due to limited funds and scale, small enterprises have insufficient voice and poor quality control when they talk to supply chain manufacturers. In her view, manufacturers use inferior dyes, late enterprises fail to control, and quality inspection departments are not strict. The main reason for the flow of products with quality problems to the market.
Expert advice
Zhu Xiaohong: Home textile enterprises also need to take responsibility
Even if home textile companies are not the source of carcinogens, this does not mean that home textile companies can shirk their responsibilities. Whether it is to fabricate the fabric after the fabric factory purchases, or directly purchase the already dyed fabrics, the home textile enterprises should strengthen the quality and raw materials to prevent unqualified products from entering the factory. In addition, we must be responsible for the products, to the relevant departments for product testing, in the sales process, try to provide consumers with corresponding test reports.
Zhao Yongmei: Consumers need to "look, see, and leave the permit"
one look. Look at the look and check the label. Check whether the product has a complete logo, including product instructions, durability labels, whether the manufacturer's name, address, telephone number, product name, product specifications, ingredients and content of raw materials, washing methods, and product quality inspections are clearly marked. Proof and safety technology categories, etc. must be marked. In addition, it is recommended that consumers choose the products that are more elegant.
Two touches. Touch the hand and smell the smell. If the product has a poor touch and rough hair loss, it is best not to buy it. In addition, you can also smell the home textiles for irritating odors, especially in folded packaging. If so, the product may have quality problems such as excessive formaldehyde.
Three certificates of residence. Leave the voucher, good faith. For a period of time after the purchase of the product, try to keep all the vouchers about the product, including: purchase tickets, home textile tags, etc., which can be used not only to guide product maintenance, but also as an important evidence in the event of quality disputes.
