Filling Materials General Requirements China Import Package

Service Scope

GB 18383 consists of the general safety requirement for filling material used for apparel products importing to China. Different techniques in determining fiber property, hygiene, and skin irritability would be used to determine the fiber quality used in filling material.

SGS’s GB 18383 package is designed for natural or chemical fiber filling samples that are to be used for garment filling, as an additional quality assurance on top of applicable product and fabric safety standard compliance for filled clothing. The standard is not applicable to feather & down filling.

NO.

A product has to comply with all applicable mandatory standard, plus any committed performance declarations.

According to textile labelling requirement, textile products have to declare the “product standard” and product grade, which would normally contain another set of requirements.

Despite each “product standard” may itself be voluntary (with “/T” which means recommended in Chinese), the declaration is a market norm and makes the declared set of product standard becomes mandatory to some extent.

To put it simple, the minimum compliance would be safety standard + declared product standard.

Safety requirement of category A > category B > category C.
The minimal requirement for skin contact textile is category B, and that for non-skin contact textile is category C.
A stricter standard can be declared on your product, say, you can declare category B for a non-skin contact textile product, but NOT vice versa.

When worn or used, a skin contact product has its surface area in direct contact of human skin. If only a minor part is in skin contact or no contact, the product is classified as indirect skin contact.

Skin contact examples: Underwear, shirts, skirts, trousers, socks, bed sheets, duvet covers, towels, swimsuits, hats.

Non-skin contact examples: Overclothes, curtains, bed linen, wall cloth.
