Escopo e aplicabilidade

This standard applies to daily-use leather, fur, and recycled leather products, as well as their related articles, specifically focusing on the accessible leather and fur components. It covers a wide range of product categories including garments, footwear, bags, and decorative items. This standard is mandatory for consumer leather goods and does not apply to special industrial-use leather, fur, or recycled leather products.

Requisitos técnicos

The standard classifies products into three safety categories: Class A (for infants aged 36 months and under), Class B (products with direct skin contact), and Class C (products without direct skin contact). It establishes strict limit requirements for various hazardous substances, including decomposable carcinogenic aromatic amines, formaldehyde, and hexavalent chromium. Manufacturers must ensure their products meet the specific category limits to be deemed compliant. Additionally, the standard introduces new limit requirements for short-chain chlorinated paraffins, chlorophenols (such as pentachlorophenol), and phthalate plasticizers. It also regulates total heavy metal content (like lead and cadmium) and dimethyl fumarate. These requirements are detailed in the standard's main text and supported by normative appendices listing the specific restricted chemical CAS numbers. Furthermore, the standard mandates proper product labeling. Products must be marked with the standard number and their corresponding safety technical category. It also outlines the implementation timeline, noting that products produced or imported before the implementation date are subject to a transitional period.

Métodos de ensaio

The standard outlines specific testing procedures for each regulated substance, referencing various GB/T and QB/T standards. Key testing includes high-performance liquid chromatography for formaldehyde, spectrophotometry or chromatography for hexavalent chromium, and chemical tests for banned azo dyes. Test sample preparation and conditioning must follow specific protocols, and in case of disputes, arbitration testing methods are explicitly defined.
