Everyone Responded: "Toxic" Proposition Is Not Established.

In the survey of green brand toxic and hazardous substances released by Greenpeace, an international environmental protection agency, it has chosen its own.

4 samples were tested for nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, and the detection rate of nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether was 100%.

The response from fan guest asked reporters that the "poisonous" proposition is neither true nor exist.

Reporters inquired the above investigation report information, found that the four samples sold were "mainland China" and "unknown", four pieces.

Men's underwear, respectively.

Children's cardigan sweater and men's jeans.

The contents of 4 nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether (mg / kg) were 7.6, 8.5, 140 and 150 respectively.

Greenpeace said that all brands had one or more garments detected nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether. In 18 production sites, 13 samples of garment samples were detected nonylphenol ethoxylates; among 25 samples purchased from 29 countries (regions), nonylphenol ethoxylates were detected.

In the survey, the brand of nonylphenol polyoxyethylene residue with more than 1000ppm was detected, including a sample of C&A, three samples of Mango, two samples of Levi 's (Levi's), and a sample of CalvinKlein.

A sample, a sample of Jack&Jones (JACK&JONES) and a sample of Marks&Spencer (Marsha).

Obviously,

The content of nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether detected in the samples is lower than that of the above brands, but Greenpeace said in the report, "it should be noted that the residual concentration of nonylphenol polyoxyethylene in the samples is low, which does not mean that it also uses less nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether in the production process.

Because nonylphenol polyoxyethylene is likely to be washed from the sample during the washing process.

Data show that nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether is a kind of man-made chemical substance, which does not exist in nature.

They belong to a group of chemicals called alkylphenol polyoxyethylene ether (APEs), which are usually used as surfactants and are used in the field.

Product manufacturing.

Once the nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether enters the sewage treatment plant or the environment, it will be decomposed into nonylphenol which has persistent, bioaccumulation and interferes with the endocrine system.

Some countries and regions have restricted their use for nearly 20 years because of their dangers.

The Chinese government has included nonylphenol and nonylphenol polyoxyethylene in the catalogue of toxic chemicals strictly prohibited import and export (2011), which means that the import and export of nonylphenol and nonylphenol polyethoxylates at China's ports must be examined and approved in advance.

However, there are no regulations on the production, use and discharge of nonylphenol and nonylphenol polyethoxylates in China.

The information provided by the customer relations department shows that at present, there are fewer than 200 suppliers in the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta region, and it is said that "all customers have been concerned about the quality of products and the emissions and pollutant residues in the garment production process."

At present, most of our suppliers are well-known factories in China and even internationally. The standard of service they provide to customers is the highest standard they can provide.

But we are still urging suppliers to improve their residue detection and pollution control capabilities.

At the same time, we also set up a set of assessment mechanism to request suppliers. If we fail to meet these targets, we will issue a rectification notice to them. "

In response to questions from reporters about whether there is any intention to make efforts to reduce emissions of these toxic substances, the customer relations department responded that, first of all, the proposition of "toxic" is neither established nor exists; secondly, we will continue to urge and request suppliers to make improvements in production processes and emissions.

It is worth noting that the customer relations department said in reply that at present, all clothing sold by customers is running the national standard. "The standard of" nonylphenol polyethoxylates "is currently in the domestic textile industry standard (including GB/T18885-2009" eco textile technical requirements "), and there is no index requirement, and there seems to be no standard for environmental protection.
