Since this year, more than a thousand national standards have been released in China——

  "Standard" is changing your life

  To achieve a high-quality life requires high-quality standards.

Since the beginning of this year, batches of brand-new national standards have come into our lives. Standards in many fields of people's livelihood have grown from nothing to excellence, providing strong support to continuously meet the people's growing needs for a better life.

  In the first 7 months of this year, the State Administration for Market Regulation (Standards Committee) issued more than ten batches of national standards, with the number reaching more than 1,000, covering health protection, health and safety, food, consumer products, information technology, transportation, industrial manufacturing, agriculture and rural areas And many other fields, covering almost all aspects of the social economy.

From the safety evaluation of disinfectants to the definition of noise from household appliances, to the energy efficiency indicators of ultra-high-definition televisions... from food, clothing, housing and transportation to economic development, batches of national standards are changing our lives.

  "Timely rain" in extraordinary times

  In extraordinary times, the standard provides a "ruler" for the orderly operation of various industries.

  During the new crown pneumonia epidemic, masks have become a necessity in life, but children's masks have always had different standards.

Regardless of whether it is an adult version or a modified version of children's masks, when worn by children, they will have poor sealing and unsatisfactory protective effects.

  On May 6, the national standard "Technical Specifications for Children's Masks" was released.

This standard applies to children between 6 and 14 years old. This is the first standard for children's masks publicly released in my country and the world. It comprehensively considers children's physical development and behavioral characteristics, skin characteristics, respiratory requirements, protection and tolerance.

According to industry insiders, the formulation and publication of the national standards for children's masks is very timely.

On the one hand, with national standards, mask manufacturers can "compared to standard" production to eliminate blind, disorderly, and non-standard production; on the other hand, parents can also "compared to standard" purchases, allowing children to wear standard masks, which is safer Guaranteed.

  The relevant person in charge of the State Administration of Market Supervision stated that the standard, as a summary of science, technology and practical experience, can provide professional support for epidemic prevention and control in a more targeted manner.

Since the outbreak, the State Administration for Market Supervision (Standards Committee) has approved the release of 9 national standards related to epidemic prevention and control including Good Manufacturing Practices for Disinfectants and Evaluation Methods for Spray Disinfection Effects, and completed the Management Standards for Five-Color Epidemic Risk Assessment Maps. The establishment and evaluation of national standards such as the "Community Guidelines for Prevention and Control of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia" and other national standards, and speeding up the development of epidemic prevention and control related testing method standards and testing standard samples, have effectively improved the quality of protective products and the ability of epidemic prevention and control.

  Everything you need to live in

  To achieve a high-quality life requires high-quality standards.

More than 1,000 national standards issued in the first half of this year are related to all aspects of people's food, clothing, housing and transportation.

  The national standard "Requirements and Test Methods for Limited Substances in Foot Protective Footwear (Boots)" stipulates the classification of limited substances in protective footwear and the classification of safety requirements, which helps protect the wearer’s feet and legs from the hazard of the work area. ; "Strong light source protective glasses" and other two national standards, clarify the product quality requirements of strong light source protective glasses, which will effectively protect the eye and face safety of practitioners using strong light source eyes.

  Food, the "General Technical Requirements for Food Traceability Two-dimensional Codes" regulates the application and development of two-dimensional code technology in the field of food traceability, and will better play its role of "traceable origin and traceability".

Not long ago, the National Food Safety Standards Review Committee also reviewed and passed the food cold chain production and operation hygienic specifications, and put forward corresponding mandatory food safety requirements for each link of food cold chain production, processing, transportation and sales.

  3 recommended national standards, including the "Technical Specifications for the Construction of Rural Three-format Household Toilets", "The Operation and Maintenance Specifications for Rural Three-format Household Toilets," and "Technical Specifications for the Construction of Rural Centralized Sewer Collection Household Toilets", and the transformation of rural household toilets as rural residential The breakthrough in environmental improvement has made up for the shortcomings in the connection between rural household toilets and manure treatment, and has effectively promoted the development of the rural "toilet revolution".

  my country’s first batch of mandatory national standards in the field of electric vehicles-"Safety Requirements for Electric Vehicles", "Safety Requirements for Electric Passenger Vehicles" and "Safety Requirements for Power Batteries for Electric Vehicles" have been issued successively, based on the original recommended national standards, and The United Nations global technical regulations on the safety of electric vehicles, which my country has taken the lead in formulating, are fully integrated, and will further improve and optimize the safety technical requirements for electric vehicles and power battery products.

  Tian Shihong, deputy director of the State Administration of Market Supervision, said that many standards in the field of people's livelihood have grown from nothing to excellence, which provides strong support for continuously satisfying the people's growing needs for a better life.

  Leading industry development and promoting consumption upgrade

  "For enterprise technological innovation, standards are an important form of solidifying technological achievements; for industrial development, standards are an important way to promote industrial scale; for social governance, standards are a benchmark for standardizing industrial quality." China Zhao Bo, president of the Electronic Technology Standardization Research Institute, said that the release of relevant standards has effectively promoted the healthy development of various fields. On the one hand, the formulation of standards timely reflects the needs of technological progress and industrial transformation and upgrading, and has played an active role in leading the development of the industry.

On the other hand, the timely release of relevant standards effectively safeguarded the rights of consumers and promoted consumption upgrades.

  Experts said that the improvement of a key indicator will drive enterprises to carry out technological transformation and quality upgrades, and even bring the entire industry to "shuffle".

  For example, as soon as my country's first mandatory national standard in the field of elderly care services, "Basic Norms for the Service Safety of Elderly Care Institutions" was promulgated, it immediately attracted the attention of the whole society.

“From the perspective of elderly care service organizations, relying on standards can achieve their own standardized and large-scale development, and maximize service quality and benefits; from the perspective of the development of the elderly care industry, relying on standards can achieve the optimal allocation of various resources and promote elderly services and related services. Industry information exchange and integrated development.” said Chen Hongjun, head of the Standards and Technology Department of the State Administration for Market Regulation.

  In Zhao Bo's view, the "multiplier effect" produced by the combination of innovation and standards can better promote the transformation of scientific and technological achievements into industries, form a powerful growth driver, and truly play an innovation-driven role.

  This year's newly revised mandatory national standard "Energy Efficiency Limits and Energy Efficiency Ratings for Flat Panel TVs and Set-Top Boxes" puts forward energy efficiency rating requirements for 8K TVs, providing a basis for ultra-high-definition TV market entry.

In this regard, industry experts said that the release and implementation of this standard will significantly improve the energy efficiency of my country's flat-panel TV products and promote the rapid development of the ultra-high-definition display industry.

  Tian Shihong pointed out that the current lack of standards and delayed aging problems still exist.

With the development of new technologies such as information technology and biotechnology and the upgrading of concepts such as health and ecology, people's production and lifestyles will continue to change, new demands will continue to grow, and standards will also be improved.
