A European Union environmental commissioner has recently said that 1000 pages of REACH regulations, known as the chemicals registration, assessment, licensing and restriction regulation, are still unclear and need to be revised to speed up the process of replacing hazardous chemicals with safe substances.

What are the implications of the EU Commissioner's amendment to the REACH regulations? What will be the implications for China's textile and garment industry? What is the difference between China and Europe in terms of technical regulations and standards?

The survey showed that 32.22% of the 52942 respondents were very familiar with the EU Commissioner's amendment proposal, while 63% of the respondents generally knew it, while 4.78% of the respondents were totally unaware of the proposed amendment.

In their eyes, what is the impact of the EU environmental Commissioner's recommendations on China's textile and clothing industry? It is believed that the price of dye and chemicals will increase, the production cost of textile export enterprises will be increased, the difficulty of textile and garment exports will be increased, the competitiveness of downstream products of China's textile industry in the EU market will be reduced, and the importers of the EU can take the excuse that the quality of products is not up to the standard and the content of chemical components is not qualified, and that the respondents who make the breach of the agreement, return the goods, deal with the price and claim for compensation will make up 25% of the four factors.

What are the differences between China and Europe in terms of technical regulations and standards for textile and clothing, which will have a greater impact on import and export trade? 25% of the respondents believe that fiber terms are inconsistent, safety standards are inconsistent, criteria for disabling toxic and hazardous substances are inconsistent, and ecological environmental standards are inconsistent.

In the import and export trade with the European Union, about 14.29% of the respondents believe that the products are exported to the European Union because of the inaccuracy of the names or contents of the fibers, the unmarked graphic symbols on the labels, the unused products, the use of Mandarin, the harm to consumers, especially the children, the harmful substances that do not meet the requirements of the technical regulations and standards of the users, the appearance and the internal quality, and the packaging quality.

They believe that the main reason for these problems is that they fail to follow the standards after the products are detected, or are not clear about the contents of the technical regulations and standards.
