According to the data provided by the
Romanian Ministry of European Integration the clothing textile sector is one of the
dynamic sectors of the Romanian industry, mainly the clothing industry that
managed to keep largely a high degree of competitiveness. This made the
Romanian products represent 4.4% of EU imports (mainly in Germany and Italy).
In terms of competitiveness, there are
differences between sub-sectors of the clothing and textile industry. Textile
related products and stockings are competitive on the international and
EU market, the production of knitwear has approx. 75% of competitive products,
especially cotton, wool and silk with high complexity of processing. The
production of woolen fabrics and silk for clothing has over 80% of competitive
products.
A company thato perates in the textile
industry, is a company that inserted in the Constitutive Act one of the
following NACE Codes that define the its activity: 1310 Preparation and
spinning of textile fibers, 1320 Production of fabrics, 1330 Finishing of
textiles, 1391 Manufacture of knitted and corsetry, 1392 Manufacture of carpets
and rugs, 1399 Manufacture of other textiles, 1411 Manufacture of leather
clothes, 1413 Manufacture of wearing apparel, 1420 manufacture of articles of
fur.
A company
specialized in textile and clothing production is to obtain authorization for
operation in terms of safety and health at work. This authorization is
necessary in order to ensure the health and safety conditions at work and the
prevention of accidents and occupational diseases; therefor employers are
required to obtain it before the starting of any work.
For authorization in terms of safety and health at work, the
employer shall submit an application to the Territorial Labor Inspectorate
within whose jurisdiction they operate. This is necessary because when it comes
to the activities developed in this domain there are certain special
regulations to be followed.
These are a couple of obligations
established by the laws regulating this particular domain: Every type of machine will work on only
by qualified and trained personnel on the functioning of the machine in
question.Before commissioning the machine dangerous areas specific to each
machine will be verified. Any technical work it is forbidden when protective
devices are missing or when they are out of service or when flaws intervene.
Any intervention to the machinery during its utilization is forbidden. In
case of technical equipment malfunctions or disturbances, the machine will be
stopped and the head job will be announced. When it comes to tailoring while
working to control the mechanical ramp it is prohibited for employeesto stay in
range of the device for folding and / or the conveyor. It is prohibited
to crowd the clutter table with auxiliary devices.
Another
step in order to start the actual activity of the company specialized in textile
and clothing activity is obtaining an environmental authorization from the
National Environmental Protection Agency.
According to the laws that regulate this domain these are some of the
necessary documents for the obtaining the environmental authorization
a)
Application for environmental authorization;
b)
Sheet and statement presentation
c)
Proof that the request has published in at least one of the methods of
information approved by the law;
d) The
Admission Plan in the target area;
e) the
written statement of compliance with all conditions imposed by environmental
agreement;
It’s important to take into consideration
the fact that when it comes to the composition,labeling and marking of the
fiber composition of textile products a producer needs to take into
consideration the provisions of the relevant legislation. These are a couple of
rules that need to be followed:
Only textile products exclusively
composed of the same fiber may be labeled or marked as "100%" ,
"pure " or "all " .
A textile product containing 2% by weight
of foreign fibers may also be treated as being composed of the same fiber,
provided that this quantity is justified as being technically unavoidable in
good practices production and is not added as a matter of routine.
A textile product which has undergone a
carding process can also be treated as being composed of the same fiber if it
contains less than 5% by weight of foreign fibers , provided this quantity is
justified as the unavoidable technically in good manufacturing practice and
it’s not added as a matter of routine .
A textile product shall be labeled or
marked with the name and percentage by weight of all constituent fibers in
descending order.
For textile products whose composition is
difficult to specify the time of manufacture, labeling or marking may use the
term "mixed fibers" or the term ' unspecified textile composition'.
The fibers that are not yet listed in may
be designated by the term 'other fibers', immediately preceded or followed by
the total percentage by weight.
