Some garments have cancer risk experts to interpret garment safety labels

When you choose clothes, is it clear that you need to recognize a safety sign "GB18401-2003" to buy clothes? The specification specifies the five health and safety indicators such as color fastness, formaldehyde content, azo dye, odor, and pH value. Newly-produced garments that conform to this specification must carry the "GB18401-2003" logo. However, the vast majority of consumers do not understand this.

So why are clothes without safety signs harmful to the human body? Trade and Industry Bureau law enforcement officials told reporters that clothing manufacturers in the process of processing clothing, the need to add a variety of dyes, auxiliaries, etc., the content of these chemicals reaches a certain value, it may cause harm to human skin and body health. For example, men's non-ironing shirts are likely to cause excessive formaldehyde due to the use of additives; denim clothes are more likely to have unacceptable pH values; and carcinogenic aromatic amine azo dyes may appear in bright women's clothing and children's clothing. Therefore, clothing without safety signs may have several hidden dangers during wearing or use. First, free formaldehyde on the fabric can cause headaches, weakness, body temperature changes, sensory disturbances, irregular perspiration, rapid pulse, dermatitis Symptoms such as skin allergies; Second, certain aromatic amine intermediates remaining in the process of printing and dyeing of azo dyes have carcinogenic effects on the human body; Third, heavy metals such as mercury, nickel, chromium, and lead may remain in textiles, and heavy metals If the content is too high, it will not only weaken people's immune function, induce cancer, but also injure the human central nervous system.

How can I buy safe clothes? Experts gave consumers three strokes. First of all, pay attention to observe the safety sign. The specification classifies textile products into three categories: A, B, and C. Class A is baby products, class B is products that directly contact the skin, and class C is products that are not in direct contact with the skin. The category of product safety should be directly marked on the textile product tag, such as “infant and child products” or products marked with “safety level: GB18401-2003B”, and it is a qualified product. Only "A type" and "B type" are written on the product tag, the logo is not standardized, and the product without a safety mark is an unqualified product; the second one is "smell"; the qualified product should not have an odor; the third is to measure , is to do some simple tests to determine whether the clothing, textiles are qualified, for example, with a small piece of white cloth or white paper with your fingers pressed against the surface of the clothing several times rubbing back and forth to see if there is a significant stain.
