Nowadays, many consumers choose to buy clothes on the shopping website, which are rich in variety and the price is more substantial than the physical stores. Especially, some fashionable imported garments are also very popular.

The Zhejiang entry exit inspection and quarantine department first explored the use of online purchasing samples to conduct spot checks on imported products from the network sales. It mainly conducted a supervision and spot check on the garments that were widely sold, with specific operating companies and products showing imports. Altogether, 16 batches of imported garments were investigated.

It is understood that the Zhejiang entry-exit inspection and Quarantine Bureau on the main business platform randomly selected larger sales, reputable merchants, extracted the Korean lady's skirt imports.

All samples were sent to Zhejiang inspection and Quarantine Science and Technology Research Institute and tested in strict accordance with national standards.

The test results showed that a group of samples of toxic and harmful substances formaldehyde exceeded the standard, may cause harm to the human body, the nine batch of products fiber content is not qualified, not truthfully label ingredients of fabrics, there is a fraud consumer behavior.

In addition, the identification of the 16 batches of samples is not in line with the mandatory standard requirements of our country, that is to say, the pass rate of the spot checks is zero.
