EU Releases New Guide For Children's Wear Using Rope And Cord

The European Commission (EC) has released a new guide for the use of rope and cord in children's wear. It reveals some questions and answers, which help retailers correctly display and design clothing styles.

The European Union released the report on the PD CEN / TR 17376:2019, which aims to clarify the provisions and explanations of "EN 14682:2014 children's safety - child safety ropes and rope safety regulations" (EN 14682:2014 Cords and Drawstrings and) and is currently under revision.

The report helps to explain some technical aspects of garment design and manufacture, and to solve some problems raised by the apparel industry and market regulators.

In particular, it is based on information about retailers' advertising, website and visual merchandising, etc., to show consumers how to wear or make styling - but this means that the way of clothing display is incorrect and does not conform to the EN14682 standard.

"Children's clothing, such as adult clothing, has changed in fashion styles." The author said: "the Technical Report is designed to help all stakeholders in the rapidly changing and innovative industries."

The guide is compiled by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) to explore and solve problems in various fields of children's wear.
