Fujian Province, the growth of travel goods and luggage export quality needs to be improved

According to statistics from Fuzhou Customs, in the first quarter of this year, the export of travel goods and luggage in Fujian Province reached 243 million U.S. dollars, up 15.6% over the same period of last year. Although the export value has maintained the growth trend, the low quality will be the most unfavorable factor for export.

According to the introduction of Fuzhou Customs, the EU has started to implement a new safety standard system for luggage products, and the threshold for luggage entering the EU market is further raised. At present, the "Registration, Evaluation and Permission Regulation of Chemicals" (ie REACH Regulation) has been adopted and formally implemented by the EU. The production of bags involves various raw materials such as textile fabrics, leather, plastics and metals, and will encounter technical barriers that will make the production enterprises available The reduction of tanning materials. At the same time, luggage products entering the EU must also provide more stringent tests than the current chemical content testing confirmed. In this regard, Fuzhou Customs believes that companies consider product upgrades, the production shift to high value-added products, to enhance their ability to withstand international trade risks.
