When you choose clothes, are you sure that you need to recognize a safety symbol "GB18401-2003" when you buy clothes?

So why are clothes without safety signs harmful to human body? Law enforcement officials of the trade and Industry Bureau told reporters that clothing manufacturers need to add various dyes and auxiliaries in the process of processing garments, which can cause harm to human skin and physical health when the content of these chemicals reaches a certain value.

For example, men's ironing shirts are prone to cause formaldehyde to exceed the standard due to the use of additives. The pH value of cowboy clothes is not up to standard; aromatic amine azo dyes that may cause cancer are mostly found in bright women's clothing and children's wear.

Therefore, there are several hidden dangers in the wearing or using process of unsafe clothing. First, the free formaldehyde in fabrics can cause headache, weakness, temperature changes, sensory disturbance, irregular sweating, pulse acceleration, dermatitis, skin allergy and so on. Two, some aromatic amine intermediates remaining in the printing and dyeing process of azo dyes have carcinogenic effects on human body; three, there may be residual heavy metals such as mercury, nickel, chromium and lead in textiles, and heavy metal content will not only weaken human immune function, induce cancer, but also harm the central nervous system of human beings.
