A conference was organized last week in Sri Lanka with the participation of the delegation and members of the textile industry where a three team members delegation representing the Chinese government were present to brief on the Chinese regulations and testing standards, and trends in global textile testing.
The Chinese market is vast and growing but many countries have failed to break into the textile market due to the lack of knowledge of their standards. Their standards are different to the standards adopted by other countries.
Chinese delegation enlightened the Sri Lankan’s apparel sector on the Chinese National Standards (CNS) for textiles.
General Manager, Hong Kong and Overseas of SDL Atlas Ltd. Hong Kong, Fred Cheng said that they need to educate and enlighten the Sri Lankan industry stakeholders on the standards adopted by the Chinese, if they are to break into the market and have an edge above their competitors in the region.
According to Euromonitor International, one of the world’s leading independent provider of strategic market research, China is to overtake the US to become the largest apparel market by 2017.
