International Trade Protectionism Affects China'S Textile And Clothing Export

With the revival of the global economy and the gradual emergence of the cumulative effect of the state's support policy for textile and garment industry, China's textile and clothing exports are in the critical stage of stabilizing and picking up, but the textile and garment industry is also encountering the constraints of international trade protectionism.

According to statistics, the number of textiles announced by our country to Europe and the United States in 2009 has increased significantly compared with the past.

Since 2010, there has been no sign of a decline in the export of textiles exported by countries such as Europe and the United States.

As Europe and the United States are the main importing countries of China's textile exports, if we can not take effective measures to deal with this problem, it is bound to have an impact on China's textile exports.

According to the analysis of the notification cases, the main problems of the products are: first, the defects in product design, such as the design of rope and small parts of children's clothing, which do not meet the standard requirements; two, the physical and chemical performance indicators related to health and safety have not reached the regulations and standards of the importing countries, such as formaldehyde, AZO, extractable heavy metal content and so on, and the color fastness is not enough. The flame-retardant properties of the fabrics do not meet the requirements; three, the product packaging and warning signs do not meet the safety requirements, such as the use of dry agent containing two methyl ester of fumaric acid in the packaging, the warning terms for children's clothing labels or packaging materials are not specified according to the requirements, such as age and risk precautions. Four, some products are contrary to the requirements of REACH regulations. From recent years

The reason is that the author thinks that the quality safety consciousness and social responsibility consciousness of enterprises are not strong. Many manufacturers are keen to pursue fabric color and functional effects, and consider less environmental protection and safety factors. Besides, production enterprises are not strict with the quality of raw materials and raw materials, and do not carry out effective testing of raw materials and accessories. Because of lack of understanding or insufficient emphasis on foreign technical requirements, they blindly design and blindly produce in production process, and lack strict control over product quality and technology.

To this end, I remind textile and garment export enterprises to strengthen product quality and safety management, enhance the sense of traceability in production and quality management, and control product quality from the source.

In the textile industry, it is possible to produce toxic and harmful substances from raw materials to finished products, which will have an impact on consumers' health and environment. Therefore, for the raw materials used for daily use, we must strictly implement the "source control" measures, timely and accurately grasp the requirements of the latest international standards and regulations for technology, quality, safety, environmental protection, packaging and labelling, and comprehensively control raw materials, semi-finished products, finished products, and technology, management and production processes, eliminate hidden dangers of quality and safety, avoid losses caused by rework and return, and fundamentally guarantee the quality and safety of products.
