Yongcheng Children's Shoes, Clothing And Other Supplies Industry To Speed Up Transformation To Deal With Export Barriers

< p > < strong > foreign standards and supervision efforts have been promoted continuously < /strong > < /p >
< p > children's products need to be safer. Recently, the European Union released the latest list of European toy safety coordination standards in its official communique, and revised EN 71-1:2011+A2:2013 (toy safety). The United States issued final rules on safety standards for baby bathing chairs, toddlers and full size cribs for inclusion in the latest version of the ASTM standard. In accordance with the European Union EN12586:2007 standard, Israel revised the safety requirements and testing methods of pacifiers for child care products, including the mandatory standard SI12586 to pacify nipple clamps, and revised double chain test involving potential knot. < /p >
< p > the control of toxic and harmful substances is stricter. The European chemical Administration (EU) has adopted the Swedish proposal to restrict the lead content in items that can be put into the mouth of young children, such as clothing, footwear, accessories, furniture, ornaments, sports and leisure products and other consumer goods. In SB 1569, Oregon asked for a list of high priority chemicals in children's products to phase out toxic and harmful substances in products. Philippines issued executive order No. 2013-24, "lead and lead compound chemicals directive (COO)" to limit lead and lead compounds in consumer products such as toys, stationery, food contactors, etc. Taiwan revised the textile inspection standard "textile safety specification (General requirements)" (CNS 15290), and made relevant inspection provisions for infants and young children in clothing and accessories, towels, bedding, underwear, garments, sweaters, swimsuits and knitted socks, and strictly restricted the content of nonylphenol in products. < /p >
< p > the certification system has changed. The European Union, the United States and other countries have constantly revised and upgraded the standards of children's products, and the corresponding certification standards will also change. For example, the CE certification marks after the EU's new toy regulations come into effect, the EN71 certification for exporting to the European Union, the certificate of conformity under the relevant laws and regulations of the United States CPSIA and HR4040. Indonesia officially entered into force in October 2013. After the toy SNI certification, Ningbo toys plunged sharply in Indonesia in the fourth quarter, with batches and amounts down 46.5% and 32.1% compared with the same period last year, which is in sharp contrast to other export countries and regions. < /p >
< p > return notification has been innovating frequently. On the one hand, standards are constantly changing and upgrading. On the one hand, market supervision is becoming more and more stringent. In 2013, China received a total of 760 reports on children's products, including the European Union, the United States and Canada, which increased by 4.97% over 2012. The bulletin is mainly related to EU toy safety directive, EN71 standard, EN14682 European Union children's clothing safety code, EN747 double deck bed and high bed, EN14988 children's high chair, children's clothing flame retardant standards, and all kinds of toxic and harmful substances. < /p >

< p > < strong > enterprise transformation and upgrading still need to accelerate the pace < /strong > < /p >
< p > despite the fact that there are quite a few well-known brands in Yongcheng leading the export market for children's products, the relevant enterprises are still dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises. Small scale, low technology content, limited knowledge of labor force, and irregular behaviors in production process inevitably bring about some quality problems. Therefore, across many barriers, enterprises must accelerate the pace of transformation and upgrading, and overcome obstacles and overcome various obstacles successfully. < /p >
< p > first is technology. Enterprises should have a strategic vision, take the opportunity to take the time to take the initiative, improve the performance of products according to market demand and inspection recommendations of various authorities, enhance technological strength, increase investment in scientific research, take the initiative to grasp the quality of children's products, design products with safe and harmless products as the direction of development, strive for a competitive brand and gain market visibility. < /p >
< p > followed by strong management. Enterprises should put their ideas and requirements into operation and strengthen the quality awareness of front-line staff. From product design, procurement, processing to assembly, from primary products, intermediate products to finished products, we must strictly control the company's established goals and comply with the requirements of exporting countries. At the same time, with the help of authoritative third party testing and certification bodies, effective certificates of conformity and related certificates can be obtained. < /p >
< p > third is heavy collaboration. Enterprises should rely on industry associations or fraternal alliances to collate market strategies, share the latest developments and bulletin in foreign countries, understand the future development direction of the industry, and make timely improvements in accordance with the latest standard requirements and product problems, so as to avoid frequent notification and export market share of products exported to countries or regions. At the same time, for unfair treatment abroad, we must unite and cooperate and twist together to fight for rights. < /p >
< p > fourth is wide open up. In the process of entering the foreign market, we should pay attention to the development of the emerging market, analyze the favorable conditions of the market, rationally control the cost input, and open the market space, so as to prevent the changes in the foreign market from affecting the enterprises.
