As a household appliance, hair dryer needs to go through the compulsory certification of CCC (China Compulsory Certification) when sold in the Chinese market. The following is an explanation of why hair dryers need to be certified and the requirements of relevant standards:
Why do I need to apply for CCC compulsory certification?
Keeping consumers safe:CCC certification is an important measure implemented by China**, aiming to protect the personal safety and property safety of consumers. As an electrical product, hair dryer may cause safety risks such as electric shock and fire to users if the quality is unqualified or potential safety hazards, so it needs to be certified by CCC to ensure that the product meets the relevant safety standards.
Legal Sale:Hair dryers that have not passed CCC certification are not allowed to enter the Chinese market. For manufacturers, CCC certification is a necessary condition for legally selling products, otherwise they will face problems such as sales restrictions or penalties.
Enhance product reputation:Passing CCC certification can enhance the credibility and market competitiveness of hair dryer products, and consumers are more inclined to buy certified products, believing that their quality and safety are more guaranteed.
Standard requirements for CCC certification:
The standard requirements involved in CCC certification include but are not limited to the following:
Electrical Safety Standards:CCC certification requires hair dryers to comply with relevant electrical safety standards, including GB 47061 and other national standards to ensure that the product will not cause electric shock, fire and other dangers to users during normal use.
Fire Performance Standards:The product should meet the relevant fire performance requirements to ensure that it is not easy to cause fire or combustion during use, and ensure the safety of users.
Material Safety Standards:CCC certification requires that the materials used in the products do not contain harmful substances, meet environmental protection and health requirements, and protect the health and safety of users.
Machinery Safety Standards:Evaluate the mechanical structure and safety performance of the product to ensure that the product will not present hazards or safety hazards during normal use.
Environmental Protection Standards:CCC certification also requires products to meet relevant environmental protection requirements, including energy efficiency, waste disposal, and other considerations to reduce adverse environmental impacts.
By going through the CCC compulsory certification, hair dryer manufacturers can ensure that their products meet China's compulsory certification requirements, enhance the market competitiveness of their products, and protect the rights and interests of consumers and safety. For consumers, buying a CCC certified hair dryer can be more assured, believing that the quality and safety of the product has been supervised and recognized by the relevant departments.
