Shanghai Municipal Supervisor: The detection rate of cashmere and wool clothing is 16.3%

Recently, consumer complaints and reports on cashmere and wool clothing have been concentrated, and there are many quality problems. The Shanghai Market Supervision Department conducted a random inspection on 80 batches of cashmere wool clothing of 73 brands sold by 27 companies in 4 districts of Huangpu, Xuhui, Yangpu, and Putuo. It was found that 13 batches were unqualified, and the unqualified detection rate was as high as 16.3%. .

Fiber content reflects the composition and content of raw materials used in products and is an important indicator of the intrinsic quality of textiles. Inaccurate labeling of fiber content is one of the most recent problems with cashmere and wool clothing. The 11 batches of products with unqualified fiber content were from Paris Printemps (Wujiaochang store), New World City, Shanghai Women’s Products Store, Sixth Department Store, Huilian Department Store, Huijin Department Store, Yong’an Department Store, CARTELO (Wujiaochang RT-Mart Store), Relevant production (supply) companies include ShanghaiSilk Group Brand Development Co., Ltd., Shanghai Snow Horse Clothing Co., Ltd., Shanghai Jialong Garment Co., Ltd., and Shanghai Jinhao Industrial Co., Ltd. , Jiaxing Tianzhiyun Clothing Co., Ltd., Shanghai Roewe Steel Co., Ltd., Shanghai Wuhuan Clothing Co., Ltd., Shanghai Zhengjie Phoenix Wool Sweater Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Tianrui Clothing Co., Ltd., Shanghai Qidi Trading Co., Ltd., AntarcticaE-commerce(Shanghai) Co., Ltd.

　 Among them, the “Snow Horse” woolen sweater sold by New World Department Store (China) Co., Ltd. at the Wujiaochang store in Paris Printemps is nominally produced (supplied) by Shanghai Snow Horse Clothing Co., Ltd., but the fiber content is actually measured to be all sheep Wool, but the company’s nominal name is “50% cashmere, 50% wool (except for decoration)”, and the actual measured value does not match the company’s nominal value.

Textile industry experts said that wool comes from sheep and cashmere is produced from goats. Due to different collection methods, the yield of cashmere is much lower than that of wool. Data shows that the annual global wool production is more than 50 times that of cashmere. In addition, cashmere has more advantages in skin-friendliness, wrinkle resistance, color fastness, and warmth retention. Therefore, cashmere has a higher value. Operators mislabel the fiber content, which is suspected of raising the value of the product and misleading consumers to buy it at a high price.
