Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the issue of certification and standardization in the range of textile goods. Both compulsory and optional conformity assessment are included. Students are introduced to the legislative framework related to the introduction of textile products to the market in the Czech Republic. Mandatory conformity assessment mainly concerns textile toys, personal protective equipment (protective clothing, gloves etc.) and certain textile products used in the healthcare sector as medical devices (face masks, wound dressings etc.). The technical requirements for products and related government regulations - textiles mainly concern the issue of personal protective equipment, toys, medical devices, active implantable medical devices. In terms of content, Czech government regulations are harmonized with European directives. Students will be familiarized with the modular system of conformity assessment, which is applied for the unification of certification procedures within the EU. A special group of products consists of products for children up to 3 years of age, whose placing on the market must comply, inter alia, with Decree of the Ministry of Health No. 84/2001 Coll. On hygiene requirements for toys and products for children under 3 years. The area of optional certification is usually motivated by the requirements of consumers for whom the quality certificate can become an important selection criterion. The specified product requirements are usually enshrined in the corresponding technical standards. Upon successful completion of this course, the student is able to understand relevant standards (related to specific groups of textile products and certification as such) and related legislation. Emphasis will not be placed on detailed knowledge of standards and legislative documents, but above all on orientation in the issue.
The student is able to orientate in standards related to product certification and certification of quality management systems and in standards related to technical requrements for selected groups of textile products, is also able orientate in related legislation.
