New Standard GB 43471-2023 for Light Sources Announcement No. 20 of 2023 heralds the approval of 423 novel recommended GB standards by the Chinese State Administration for Market Regulation (National Standardization Administration Committee). Among these standards, a new Standard concerning Light source safety requirements has been approved, named GB 43471-2023. Many light sources mandate CCC certification for their importation and dissemination within China. China enforces CCC certification for select product categories. Before products can be exported to China, obtaining a CCC certificate is obligatory, mirroring the role of the European CE system in standardizing product quality. #CCCcertification #ChinaCertification #ChinaCompulsoryCertificate #ChinaProductCertification #GBstandards #GBstandardsChina #CCCchina #ChinaCCC

Some months ago, I read somewhere that the Chinese government set somewhat rigid manufacturing validation regulations for lithium-ion cell manufacturers. The decision was late, but it is always better than never. What I found interesting is that the suggested testing and manufacturing control under the revised GB31241 did not suggest out-of-normal procedural or process validation for an ISO or TS-compliant organization. Ultimately, one can't have a cPk of 1.6 without performing the vast majority of manufacturing validation suggested in the standard. Interestingly, some news organizations claimed that the South Korean government asked for an extension on the deadline for compliance with the new directives for Korean manufacturers operating out of China. What are we talking about here? I was under the impression that only small producers and shady resellers sold non-compliant cells that endangered the public. What is a good explanation for the extension request?
