Requirements for children's clothing
The assessment of compliance with the requirements is carried out according to the developed scheme, the choice of which depends on the products produced (serial production or a single batch), and also depends on the applicant's reputation in global markets (stability, the presence of a QMS certificate). To ensure that the confirmation of security according to the TR CU does not cause questions, you first need to figure out which documents should be prepared for you. It is necessary to check both with national legislation and with the rules of the Customs Union.
Clothing for children should meet more stringent requirements in comparison with those imposed on products for adults. These requirements include:
- The composition of the feedstock. It must meet the accepted requirements.
- Hygroscopicity.
- Resistance of the dyed fabric to friction and washing.
- Breathability.
The results obtained are recorded, they are the basis for issuing a certificate. Artificial fibers should be absent in products for newborns. The products must be made of natural materials, without internal seams. Keep in mind that sometimes products of this kind do not consist of a single layer. And these requirements will be relevant for everyone. Children's clothes are checked very carefully. Therefore, it's not only about the presence of an additional layer of material, but also in accessories, accessories, etc.
Documents for certification
Certification of children's clothing implies the provision of a package of documents to the authorized body. The list may vary depending on who is considered the applicant (it may be a seller or a manufacturer), on the type of products (products for newborns or dresses, blouses for girls), as well as on the country in which the product is produced.
In any case, in order to carry out certification, it is necessary to provide an application, a questionnaire that is filled in according to a specially established form, a technical description. In the latter, it is worth specifying all the basic characteristics of such a product. Also, we must not forget that we need a package of documents for the applicant himself. But what kind of official papers to submit depends on who applies to the registration authority. Both the manufacturer himself and his representative or the seller in general can be certified.
The package of documents may differ depending on whether the manufacturer is a foreign company or a domestic one. In the second case, the company has data in domestic databases. Therefore, less information will need to be provided. But a foreign corporation will need a full amount of information, especially if it has not previously submitted such information about itself in principle.
