The problem of imaginary fiber content is outstanding

“If the fiber content is unqualified, often the cashmere content is not up to standard. The reasons for this phenomenon are many.†Wang Yongchi, deputy director of the National Knitwear Quality Supervision and Inspection Center (Tianjin), told reporters that the first one is that manufacturers do not use standard fiber names. Familiarization caused by labeling mistakes; Second, the production of fabric samples and batches of large-scale production and feeding materials are different, resulting in marking (marking) and the actual product of fiber content differences; Third, product finishing, it may also cause Fiber damage, resulting in differences between marking and actual samples. “The existence of a difference in fiber prices has caused some companies to use inferior materials to make good use of them.†Wang Yongchi said that the price difference between cashmere and wool is very large and the characteristics are similar. The average consumer does not pass professional testing and can not fully distinguish cashmere wool. This allows production. Businesses have time to drill. “The price of wool and cashmere is almost 10 times different. The wool is on the sheep, and the cashmere is only on the outer skin of the goat. It is a thin layer of fine velvet covering the roots of the goat's hair, which is a rare special animal fiber. The output is scarce. Very precious, with the reputation of fiber gemstones and soft gold.â€
Ms. Bai, the person in charge of the Beijing office of a cashmere garment enterprise in Shaanxi Province, told the reporter that collecting wool is like a haircut. She can shave her with scissors. Each sheep can produce several kilograms of wool each year. The collection of cashmere should be done with a special iron comb as a comb, and only a few tens of grams can be harvested from each sheep.
The personage inside course of study says, because of the above-mentioned reason, some cashmere sweaters labelled as 100% cashmere are common in the market, only a part of wool and nylon, viscose fiber and rabbit hair are measured through professional measurement.
Product identity is not standardized
Among the 32 batches of unqualified samples, there were 24 batches of unlabeled samples, accounting for 75% of the total number of unqualified samples. The reporter sorted out the aforementioned random inspection report by the Hebei Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce and found that the small label failed to rank second in the list of spotted problems.

Associate Professor Yao Jiming from Hebei University of Science and Technology told reporters that product identification is a clear indication of the production company's use of the correct information and safe use of the product to consumers. It is used to identify the product and its quality, reflect product characteristics, reflect product specificity and use. method.
However, garment manufacturers make low-level mistakes on small labels but abound. On December 23, 2015, of the above sampling inspections by the Henan Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce, of the 62 batches of unqualified samples, the samples with unsatisfactory instructions for use (labeling) were 45 batches, which accounted for 72% of the total number of unqualified samples. “Unqualified product identification indicates that the pumped-out manufacturer is not yet familiar with China’s GB18401-2010 “National Safety Technical Code for Textile Products†and GB5296.4-2012 “Consumer Products Operating Instructions Part 4: Textiles and Clothingâ€. The lack of attention has led to mislabeling or missing labels in the production marking process.†Wang Yongchi believes that many manufacturing companies do not have the habit of submitting products, there is no guidance and assistance from the national testing agencies, and product marking is very It is prone to errors and mislead consumers.
According to reports, the implementation of GB5296.4-2012 "Consumer Products Instructions for Use - Part 4: Textiles and Apparel" implemented on May 1, 2014 is a mandatory national standard, which stipulates the basic principles and contents of the instructions for the use of textiles and clothing. And labeling requirements apply to domestic sales of textiles and clothing, to provide a clear basis for regulating the use of textiles and clothing in the domestic market. The GB18401-2010 "National Basic Safety Technical Specification for Textile Products" specifies that the product use instructions must indicate the type of safety technical requirements that are met.
Sun Ying, a professor of law at the China University of Political Science and Law, believes that if the tag information is imprecise and inaccurate, it may send a wrong message to consumers, thus misleading consumers' choices and may constitute fraudulent actions against consumers.
