The China Textile Industry Association recently announced at the “2011 (Spring) Shanghai Textile and Apparel Exhibition†that the Japanese textile industry has established self-discipline standards for textiles that do not use specific azo dyes, and will specify textiles from Japan in June this year. Azo dye testing, domestic related export enterprises should respond to this as soon as possible. According to Zhang Xicheng, head of the Information and Statistics Department of the China National Textile and Apparel Council, in order to avoid increasing the cost of exporting textile products due to batch testing of products, the China Textile Industry Association and the Japan Fiber Industry Alliance have been specializing after more than one year of negotiations between China and Japan. A consensus was reached on the implementation of the azo dye self-regulatory standards, ie, through the cooperation of both parties, a “white list registration system†was established. The so-called "white list registration system" is jointly established by the China National Textile and Apparel Council and the Japan Fiber Industry Alliance. Qualifications can be conducted on the dyeing enterprises that have been registered. Enterprises that have obtained "white list qualifications" do not need to detect certain azo dyes when exporting their products to Japan, so as to avoid this "green barrier" from adversely affecting Japan's export trade. It is understood that this year is only the introduction stage of the industry's self-discipline for specific azo dyes in the Japanese textile industry. Chinese export companies can enter the Japanese market as long as they can provide product testing reports and related information on dyeing factories. However, this may not only increase export costs, extend the export cycle, and may be eliminated by the market in the future as the number of “whitelisted companies†increases. Zhang Xicheng said that the "white list registration system" is mainly aimed at the Japanese market at this stage. In the future, it may cover more textile testing and be accepted by more markets such as Europe and the United States, becoming a domestic textile safety management platform. "White List Qualification" will become a "green eco-label" for companies. At present, domestic related textile export enterprises and dyeing enterprises can already register through the textile safety net and submit “white list qualification†applications to the China National Textile and Apparel Industry Association. Japan is the second largest market for Chinese textile exports after the United States. According to the latest statistics from Shanghai Customs, in the first quarter of this year, the port of Shanghai exported 3.26 billion U.S. dollars of textiles to Japan, an increase of 21.7% over the same period of last year, and the growth rate was lower than the average growth rate of textile exports by ports at the same period by 0.5%. Due to the subsequent effects of the Japan earthquake, tsunami and nuclear leakage, it is expected that China-Japan textile trade will face more uncertainties this year.
