Shenzhen CIQ judged the involving clothing unqualified, and informed enterprise modify the labels, and required that the clothing shall not be sold or used before completion of modification. This was  the first time that Shenzhen ports intercepted and captured unqualified organic textile products since the implementation of new certification and management methods for organic products on April 1, 2014.
