The Four Big Companies Misled The Goods To Mark A Heavy Penalty Of $126.

A few days ago, 4 retailers in the US, Amazon, Leon Max, Messi general store, Sears and its subsidiary, cam met, paid a total of $1 million 260 thousand to the Federal Trade Commission, which was sold by the retailers. textile Mistakenly labeling man-made silk components as bamboo fibers, and mislabeling commodity information and misleading consumers violate the US textile component Labelling Act and the Federal Trade Commission textiles Ordinance.

The Federal Trade Commission says bamboo fiber textiles are considered environmentally friendly products. However, the production process of man-made fibers is far from the standard of green production. Even if viscose fibers made from bamboo fiber are also processed through multi-channel chemical processing procedures, they do not conform to the slogan of environmental protection and green of bamboo fiber textiles. It is reported that the 4 US retail businesses are also required to examine and ensure that the bamboo textile products they sell have the correct fiber identification. Foreign media commented that the heavy penalty reflects the determination of the US Federal Trade Commission to seriously deal with such incidents.

In recent years, bamboo fiber has been in China. Textile enterprises More and more fibers are used in home textiles and underwear products. Although bamboo fibers have many excellent properties, such as antibacterial and bacteriostatic, their fiber properties can not be equated with natural fibers in real sense. In European and American markets, there are clear rules for labeling fiber components. In China, many textile manufacturers do not attach enough importance to the labeling of fiber components. At the legal level, there are no signs of fabric labels in the domestic market, or the phenomenon of name misrepresentation. It should be said that these irregular and non legal practices have great damage to the market image of Chinese textiles.

In the United States, the four textile label requirements described in the legal texts apply to all textile, yarn, fabric, clothing products, curtains and curtains and other household textiles in the United States market, and each part of a product or product containing wool or reusing wool. From this, we can see that the regulation of the use of textile labels must be strengthened at the legal level.

For a long time, many export textiles in China have printed labels or customers directly provide labels according to the relevant requirements of customers. It is not verified whether the ingredients in the labels match with the materials used in the products, and the contents of textile fibers and labels are easily inconsistent with the contents of the labels. In particular, the use of registered trademarks and famous trademarks on labels is more likely to involve products infringing on intellectual property rights.

At present, the inspection and quarantine departments in many regions of China have strictly investigated and strictly controlled the phenomenon of infringement of intellectual property rights in export products, and requested enterprises to obtain timely authorization for the use of registered trademarks. In addition, the conformity of the labels for clothing materials and labels was strengthened, and the situation of raw and auxiliary ingredient inspection and export label was not strictly conformed.

In order to avoid unnecessary economic losses in the future, the relevant departments also reminded manufacturers to grasp the international technical regulations related to fiber label. standard To use the standard terms and names; according to the standard, standardize the identification of the export clothing components according to the requirements of the importing countries; correctly indicate the fiber content, types and the proportion of fiber components and contents in line with physical objects, and guard against trade risks.
