Behind The Best-Selling Clothing Of "Poison" Brand In Shenzhen

The green environmental protection group released the findings of toxic and harmful substances in global brand clothing last week.

Adidas, Lining and Nike and other 14 well-known brands of clothing were detected containing NPE which can affect sexual development (nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether).

In August 28th, reporters in Dongmen and many other Adidas, Lining and so on.

The result has been nearly a week since the announcement by Greenpeace. But yesterday (August 28th), reporters at the shops of Adidas, Lining and other brand clothing rows on Dongheng street, Dongmen, saw that they were not affected by the "NPE toxic" incident.

On the contrary, several companies are promoting sales, especially Adidas stores, which are almost blocked by consumers.

In the survey report released by Greenpeace International, 78 samples were selected, of which 28 were produced in China, and 19 samples contained NPE, involving 14 brands such as Adidas and Lining.

Lining, A&F, Nike and YOUNGOR NPE contain more than 500 milligrams per kilogram.

Yesterday afternoon, in Dongmen pedestrian street, one street Adidas, Lining, two sales shop clerk told reporters that their sales were not affected by the "NPE toxic" incident.

Reporters interviewed by the salesperson and several consumers said that they had not heard of the two brands of "toxic".

But reporters noted that almost all involved brand stores are doing "full court".

Because yesterday was Sunday, Adidas and Lining and other brands' consumer hotlines were not working, so whether sales promotion was related to drug-related news was unknown.

Experts point out that NPE can be rapidly decomposed into nonylphenol (NP) in water, NP can simulate estrogen, interfere with the endocrine of organisms, and is toxic to reproductive system.

Because of their safety, some developed countries and regions have banned them for 20 years.

At the beginning of this year, nonylphenol (NP) and nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether (NPE) were listed as prohibited substances for import and export for the first time by the Ministry of environmental protection and the General Administration of Customs issued the catalogue of toxic chemicals strictly restricted to import and export.

However, China has not yet stipulated the NPE content of domestic products.
