Department store found selling toys without mark

SOME toys without CCC (China Compulsory Certification) mark were taken off the shelves by the city’s quality watchdog at the Jiuguang Department Store on Nanjing Road W. yesterday.

A small toy vehicle was found without the CCC mark on its package, while strangely, a domestic-made toy vehicle carried a European CE sign (Conformite Europeenne), the Shanghai Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau told Shanghai Daily yesterday.

Another toy imported from Thailand had similar issues, bureau officials said.

Some toys sold on the sixth floor of the department store were found to be marked with CIQ (China Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine) stamp, even though they were made in China, leaving officials confused if they were imported products.

The store was ordered to provide documents for these toys for further investigation.

The CCC mark is a mandatory safety certificate that is given after inspection of goods and products that are intended to be sold in China.

Since June 2007, 16 types of products for children below 14 years of age including baby carriages, dolls, metal toys and battery-operated toys are required to have the CCC mark before they can be sold on the Chinese mainland.
