02/09/2022


How to buy safe stationery? To see CTI China test detection technology experts give the purchase suggestions.

˙ Stationery without the logo is not selected

Parents choose stationery as far as possible from regular stationery stores. GB 21027 should be clearly marked with the product name, execution standard, factory name, factory address, warning terms, matters to be paid attention to when using, production date, shelf life, and other contents. Do not buy the "three nothing" products.

˙ Stationery with edge and edge is not selected

The scissor stationery should have a circular arc tip, and the pencil case should be designed as a fold, roll, or curved edge, without sharp rough edges. Sharp edges can easily scratch children's skin.

˙ "Delicious" stationery is not selected

Stationery with fragrance is more likely to be favored by children, such as floral, fruity pencil lead, and correction liquid stationery. However, these "fragrances" may come from fragrance additives, excessive formaldehyde, benzene, and other harmful substances, and long-term exposure may lead to cancer risk.

˙ Paper is too white to choose the book

It's not that the whiter the paper, the better the quality. According to GB 21027 "General Requirements for the Safety of Student Supplies," "the brightness of the inner core paper for students' schoolwork books (except picture books) should be less than 85%." Paper that is too white can irritate children's eyes, cause fatigue, and lead to myopia if used for a long time.

If the paper is whiter than A4, be careful. Yellow color is safer.

˙ Don't choose stationery with too bright color

Stationery with bright colors usually contains heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, and cadmium.

If these heavy metals enter the human body through sweat glands, they may damage the liver and kidney, and cause adverse effects on the human blood system and bone development.

˙ Buy a writing pen to see more

When choosing a writing pen with a pen cap, it is necessary to see whether the pen cap has ventilation holes, whether the size of the pen cap is too small, and whether there is a prominent pen holder.

There is no ventilation hole, and children swallow and "suck" the trachea, causing serious choking risks.
