(BS 14682/BS 7907)
and Flammability and Children's Clothing. |

the afternoon session will cover BS7907. The seminar has been arranged for
Tuesday 16th March, here at 5 Portland Place, and will commence at

The Seminar will be led again by Mrs
Sue Bolton, who is Convener of the European Working Group, which
drew up the Standard on Cords in Children’s Clothing, and who was
been a member of the Working Group that revised BS 7907. As
well as explaining the content of the revised Standards, Mrs
Bolton will be demonstrating examples of garments that follow the
Standards and those that do not. You are also very welcome to
bring your own garments so that their conformity or otherwise with
the Standards may be discussed. |
