In March 21, 2013 P, the European Chemicals Authority launched public consultation on the lead content in articles or articles that could be put into the mouth of children. If the bill passed smoothly, the EU would insert the restriction in Annex 17 of the chemicals registration, assessment, authorization and restriction regulation (REACH code).

At that time, some of the consumer goods that lead to or equal to or exceed 0.05% of the total weight will not be put into the EU market.

The lead regulatory upgrade will affect clothing, shoes, a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_h.asp", handbag purses, /a, accessories, interior decorations, sports and leisure products, and many other products.

Therefore, children can easily absorb excessive lead with chewing, thus leading to damage of the central nervous system, or lead to anemia, constipation, insomnia and other toxic symptoms.

In the past, the European Union had no clear regulatory requirements for about 10% of the children's products that could easily be swallowed up, and the average lead concentration of these items reached about 1%.

Lead has always been the top priority of heavy metal elements supervised by all countries.

In order to prevent products from being notified and recalled, the inspection and quarantine department suggests that enterprises should do well in the following two aspects: first, strengthen supplier management, carry out the evaluation of qualified suppliers, strictly control the procurement process of raw materials, and control the addition of hazardous substances from the source of products; two, focus on mastering the scope of control, limit requirements and testing methods of lead directives, focusing on the critical control points of export commodities, formulating strict technological pformation of production processes, defining quality assurance clauses, and strengthening product qualification testing, so as to avoid heavy metal exceeding standard due to improper control of production process.
