Recently, Guangzhou Customs Technology Center has been approved the project of "National Standard Sample Pilot of Toys and Baby Products", which is also the first national standard sample pilot project in the field of toys and baby products.
Standard samples are called standards that exist in physical form. National standard samples refer to standard samples that are based on scientific and technological research results and practical experience and need to be unified nationwide. They can provide important technical support for promoting standardization strategies, promoting scientific and technological innovation, and improving product quality.
In order to promote the effective application of national standard samples and help the high-quality development of the toy and baby products industry, Guangzhou Customs will officially start the pilot application in August 2021, and formulate the content and plan of the pilot work plan for the development trend of standard samples of toys and baby products. In April 2022, a total of 21 national standard sample projects across the country passed the project approval review. Among them, the “Pilot of Standard Samples for Toys and Baby Products” hosted by Guangzhou Customs was successfully shortlisted for the first batch of national standard sample pilot projects.
my country is the world's largest toy manufacturer. More than 70% of the world's toys and baby products are produced in China. The product quality of toys and baby products has always affected the hearts of consumers. Previously, due to the scarcity of standard samples of baby products in the global toy market, it was difficult for testing institutions to find standard samples that matched the actual samples for testing as a reference.
"The pilot focuses on the 'blank areas' and 'bottlenecks' of international standard sample technology, further sorting out the list of standard sample systems, and carrying out testing projects for chemical substances such as flame retardants in children's toy plastics, nickel elements in simulated jewelry, and mechanical and physical safety performance. The development of key technologies for standard samples." said Liu Chonghua, a researcher at the Research Institute of Toys and Baby Products of Guangzhou Customs Technology Center.
In order to improve the testing ability of toys and baby samples and ensure the health and safety of children, Guangzhou Customs Technology Center takes the "standard as the guide, innovative testing technology" as the goal, actively participates in the formulation and revision of the sample standards for toys and baby products, and promotes China to the world. Standard sample technology, actively making a "Chinese voice". In recent years, Guangzhou Customs Technology Center has successfully prepared 9 national standard samples in the fields of toys and infants, and 2 preparation technologies have obtained national invention patents. Proficiency testing activities. At present, the standard samples and related technical achievements developed by the center have been popularized and applied in 39 countries and economies.
The relevant person in charge of the Guangzhou Customs Technology Center said that the center will focus on the field of toys and baby products, take the high-quality development of the industry as the guide, develop a series of standard samples that are in short supply and urgently needed in my country, and promote the coupled development of the standard sample system and the corresponding national text standard system. , carry out standard technical assistance for small and medium-sized enterprises and testing institutions, and promote the widespread application of standard sample technology in the industrial field. At the same time, through the organization of international comparisons, proficiency testing and technical exchange activities, we will continue to strengthen the technical support capabilities of customs, and enhance the voice and influence of international standard formulation.
