Jiangsu's clothing exports in recent months increased by 20%

Feiyue, inspection and appraisal office of Jiangsu Inspection and Quarantine Bureau, told reporters that as a major textile and garment exporter, the province's annual export volume accounts for about one-sixth of the country's total, of which Nantong's textile and garment export ranks first in the province, also accounting for about 1/6. . A person from the city’s Inspection and Quarantine Bureau said that Nantong’s textile and apparel products are mainly exported to Japan, while Japan’s regulations governing the import of textile and apparel products must first be tested by third-party agencies. The city's export textile and apparel product quality and safety information collection and sharing platform showed the latest. In the three months of September, October and November, 3.746 million pieces of export clothing were sampled. The rate of unqualified third-party inspections for the first time was 12.62%, an increase of 18.74% year-on-year. The quality problems involve excessive formaldehyde, insufficient fabric elasticity, poor sewing, stains, color differences, and inconsistent specifications.

The unqualified quality also led to more export garments being returned. Within three months of the implementation of the new regulations, Nantong City had returned 43,648 garments valued at 246,400 US dollars, an increase of 1.7 times and 0.9 times year-on-year. One company exported Japanese women's chemical fiber chiffon tops to Japan. Among them, 10,492 were not suitable for the shape and texture of the beading. There were also problems such as silver powder dropping off, oxidation blackening, and so on. The export was returned after repair and the loss was nearly 10%. Ten thousand U.S. dollars.

“No commodity inspection can be directly exported without quality requirements. On the contrary, the quality threshold in many countries is improving and specific regulations have been formulated.” Fei Yue said that due to a pre-condition for third-party testing, export quality problems were exposed in time in Japan. . Europe and the United States as the province's textile and garment export two major markets, its product quality checks and information reports generally lags half a year, is still a "vacuum period." Our company must not take it lightly, otherwise it will increase not only the company's own risks, but also may bring about industry and regional export resistance.
