Labels are used to mark product names, categories and contents. They are widely used on various products to provide consumers with relevant product information. Currently, with the increasing awareness of rights protection, consumers are paying more and more attention to labels when purchasing products. In addition to food labels, which are of great concern, each country has its own regulations on fabric and textile label information.
A complete clothing label should at least include information such as product composition and content, origin, product name, classification and number. my country’s national standard GB/T29862-2013 “Textile Fiber Content Labeling”, which was officially implemented on May 1, 2014, has made important revisions to the fiber name specifications and content labeling. The standard allows a certain floating range for the actual fiber content of the product, but the specific range is explained to avoid false information in the label. In addition to the common general requirements and international standards, textile labeling requirements in various countries also have differences. The recently revised textile rules in the United States have relaxed some labeling requirements. While applying the latest common name standards for fibers, products are allowed to only label the content of the main ingredients, the name of the manufacturer or seller, and the country where the product is processed or manufactured. As a developing country that attaches great importance to textile fabrics and other related products, Ecuador is about to launch the mandatory preliminary technical regulation RTEINEN2013 “Labeling of Clothing, Household Linens and Clothing Accessories”. In addition to mandatory requirements for products to have permanent labels, it also prohibits The sizes of clothing and accessories use one-size-fits-all labels, and imported goods are required to be marked with the name of the importer and tax number, etc.
From the small labels, consumers can obtain product information and learn about washing, storage and other precautions. Therefore, manufacturers and traders should pay attention to labeling requirements to avoid the loss of orders that may be caused by a few small words. In addition, the inspection and quarantine department reminds relevant enterprises that enterprises should clarify the differences and treat them according to different fabric and textile labeling regulations in different countries. When receiving orders, enterprises should fully communicate with customers, understand local requirements, and prepare the information required for export in advance. Relevant departments of the enterprise should also check product tags, labels, logos, etc. from time to time. While ensuring that the label information is authentic and reliable, they should also list the latest standard requirements of the exporting country. Do not underestimate the detailed information and let the export trade be ruined in a small way. A few words on the label.
