Kyrgyzstan plans to establish a testing lab for textile and clothing products, according to Trend News Agency, citing the Kyrgyz Ministry of Economy and Commerce.
The Ministry of Economy and Commerce signed a three-party agreement regarding this with the Kyrgyz company KrygSert and Chinese firm Xinjiang Tianyu Engineering Testing.
Formalized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), this partnership is designed to be a long-term collaboration that benefits all parties involved. The core objective is to launch an investment project focused on creating a testing laboratory that meets international standards for textile and apparel products.
The lab will be used for several functions including quality assurance, where all textile products will be tested to ensure they meet both international and national quality standards. The lab will also issue certificates verifying the safety of products for consumers and the environment.
Further, it will provide expert advice to the apparel industry on maintaining product quality and safety. Lastly, the lab will encourage the adoption of international certification standards among manufacturing companies.
This initiative is expected to create new opportunities for Kyrgyzstan's textile and apparel sectors. By ensuring quality and safety, the lab will help domestic products compete more effectively in the global market, ultimately boosting exports.
