Neke atu i te whitu tau ahau e tuku ana i ngā kopare moe hiraka ki ngā toa hokohoko me ngā kaihokohoko oranga o te UK.Ko au ake te kaiwhakahaere i te rapu me te whakatutuki i te kounga mō ia ota e tukuna ana ki ngā whata hokohoko o te UK — mai i ngā whakaritenga hiraka mulberry 22 momme ki ngā tuhinga tiwhikete Oeko-Tex. I roto i aku wheako, ko te kī ki te angitu i runga i ngā kaute toa hokohoko o te UK ko te whakaaturanga o te takai me ngā kereme papanga whaimana. Koinei taku i ako ai.

E kōrero ana ahau ki ngā kaihoko o ngā toa hokohoko o te UK tata ki ia marama.Ka rongo au i te pātai kotahi mai i ngā kaiwhakahaere hokohoko i Selfridges me ngā kaiārahi hokohoko tirohanga i John Lewis:"Ka taea e koe te whakarato i tētahi huinga kopare moe hiraka e rite ana ki ā mātou paerewa kaute koha?"He maha āku whakautu i tēnei pātai, ā, kua hangaia e au tā mātou rautaki hokohoko katoa o te UK kia tika ai te mahi.

Ko tāku whakautu, whai muri i ngā tau 12 i roto i tēnei umanga, he āe — engari ka tāpiri tonu ahau me mārama koe ki ngā mea e hiahiatia ana e te hokohoko oranga o Peretānia.Kua kite ahau i te tini o ngā kaiwhakarato e tuku ana i ngā hua ataahua kāore i tutuki i ngā whakaritenga a ngā toa hokohoko o te UK i te rā tuatahi. Kua kite ahau i a rātou e kore e whiwhi tiwhikete. Kua kite ahau i a rātou e hē ana te rahi. Kua kite ahau kāore ā rātou takai e ōrite ki te taiao hokohoko. Kāore au e hiahia kia pā tēnei ki a koe.

Ko te huinga kopare moe 22-momme hiraka māpere ka whakaahuahia e au ehara i te hua whānui ka tukuna atu e au ki ngā kiritaki katoa.I hangaia e au mō ngā kauta whakaatu toa nui o te UK. I hangaia e au i runga i ngā whakaritenga e toru kua akohia e au i roto i ngā tau maha o te wheako hokohoko UK: e tohe ana ahau kia whai tiwhikete parakore te papanga, e hiahia ana ahau kia hototahi ki te rahi o Ingarangi, ā, e hoahoa ana ahau i ngā takai iti e hokohoko ana i a ia anō.Kua ako ahau, i roto i ngā tau maha o te whakamātautau me te hapa, ehara i te waimarie te rerekētanga i waenga i tētahi hua e hokona ana i runga i te whata utu iti me tētahi e hokona ana i te utu hokohoko katoa mō te £55 — e mōhio ana ahau he whakatakotoranga engari.Ka kite ahau i tēnei tauira e puta tonu ana i roto i ia ota hokohoko o te UK ka tukatukahia e au.

I roto i tēnei tuhinga, ka whakamāramahia e au ngā āhuatanga katoa o tētahi huinga kopare moe hiraka kua rite mō te hoko i roto i te toa hokohoko. Ka tohaina e au ngā whakaritenga kua whakatikatikaina e au puta noa i ngā tini ota hokohoko o te UK. Ka whakaahuahia e au ngā hapa ture kua kitea e au e ngā kaihoko. Ka whakamāramahia e au ngā rautaki hoko e taunakihia ana e au mō tāu ota tuatahi.Kua ako ahau i ēnei mea katoa i te ara uaua, nō reira kāore he take mōu ki te mahi pērā anō.

He aha ahau i kite ai i ngā toa hokohoko o te UK e whakawhānui ana i ā rātou kaute koha oranga

Kua mātakitaki ahau i te tipu o te rāngai hokohoko koha hauora o te UK mā te 8.3% i ia tau tae noa ki te tau 2025, ā, ka taea e au te kī atu mai i ā mātou raraunga ota wheketere ko ngā taputapu e aro ana ki te moe te 22% o ngā moni whiwhi koha toa hokohoko i te wā hararei o te hauwhā tuawhā.Kāore au e kite i tēnei mai i tawhiti — e rongo ana au i roto i aku kaupapa whakaputa. E toru tau ki muri, i kite ahau i ā mātou ota kopare moe mai i ngā kiritaki toa hokohoko o te UK he rite ki ngā pakarutanga o te wā. Kotahi taku ota i te marama o Oketopa, ā, kāore au e kite i tetahi mea tae noa ki te ngahuru e whai ake nei. Ināianei kei te whakahaere ahau i ā mātou raina whakaputa mō ngā ota hokohoko o te UK puta noa i te tau.Kua whakarerekētia e au tā mātou whakamahere kaha katoa kia rite ki tēnei nekehanga nā te mea ki taku whakaaro he mea pumau.

E maumahara ana ahau ki taku haerenga ki te whare hauora o Selfridges i te mutunga o te tau 2024, ā, i tino miharo ahau ki taku i kite ai.I kite ahau kua rua te rahi o te papa o te wāhanga moe i tērā i taku haerenga o mua i te tau 2022. I mātakitaki ahau i ngā kopare moe hiraka e whakaatuhia ana i te taha o ngā paraikete taumaha me ngā mīhini whakamahana kakara. I kite ahau i te utu i waenga i te £35 me te £65. I kite ahau i ngā kaihoko e kohi ana i a rātou me te kore whakaroa.I mōhio ahau i taua wā me huri tā mātou rautaki hua mai i ngā kopare takitahi ki ngā huinga koha kua whakaritea, ā, i tere tonu taku mahi i tēnā.

Ko te huinga kopare moe hiraka e toru ngā wāhanga — i hoahoatia e au me te kopare, te potae, me te putea rokiroki — kua noho hei tino tauira mō tēnei wāhanga. Ka taea e au te whakamārama atu i te take mai i ā mātou ake raraunga hoko:

• Kua kitea e au he pai ake te whakapuakitanga o te uara o te koha i runga i te huinga koha kua whakaritea, i te taonga kotahi noa iho.Ka tāpirihia e au te potae hei ārai i te makawe ki te mata, hei whakaroa hoki i te kawa moe. Ka tāpirihia hoki e au te pēke hei whakaoti i te huinga, hei rite hoki mō te koha.Nā te mea e hanga ana e au ngā wahi e toru mai i te papanga hiraka māpere kotahi, kua kite ahau i te uara e kitea ana e nui ake ana i te tapeke o ngā wahi takitahi mā te 40–50%.Ka whaihia tēnei e au i roto i ā mātou pūrongo hoko-ā-roto.
• E mea tonu mai ana ā mātou kiritaki toa hokohoko o te UK he pai ake ki a rātou ngā huinga taonga i ngā SKU takitahi mō ngā kaute whakaaturanga.E tino mārama ana ahau ki tā rātou whakaaro. E mōhio ana ahau he nui ake te wāhi tirohanga e nohoia ana e te huinga e toru ngā wāhanga. E mārama ana ahau he tika te utu nui ake. Ka kite ahau ka whakaitihia ngā SKU hua takitahi e hiahiatia ana e tā rātou tīma hokohoko.
• Kua tātarihia e au ā mātou ota, ā, i kitea ko te uara toharite mō tētahi koha oranga tinana i ngā toa hokohoko o te UK he £42.I hoahoatia e au tā mātou huinga kopare moe hiraka i te utu hokohoko £45–£55 kia uru ki tēnei wāhi pai. E whai ana ahau kia nui te moni whiwhi, kia iti hoki mō ngā koha kore i whakamaheretia.Nā te mea e mōhio ana ahau mai i aku wheako ka tino whakaitihia ngā reiti hoko-ā-roto mēnā ka utua ngā utu i waho atu i tēnei awhe.

Kei te whakamahere ahau inaianei kia whakahaerehia ā mātou mahi whakaputa i te UK i runga i tēnei āhua tūturu, nā te mea kua whakaū ahau he wāhanga hokohoko ā-tau te koha oranga tinana i roto i ngā hokohoko o Peretānia.Ki taku titiro ehara i te mea he mea Kirihimete noa iho. Ka akiakihia ā mātou ota e te Rā o ngā Whaea. Ka akiakihia ā mātou pukapuka e te Rā o ngā Valentine. Mā te koha huritau ka haere tonu ā mātou raina mahi. Mā ngā kaupapa oranga ā-kamupene ka tautokohia ā mātou mahi puta noa i te raumati.Kua kite ahau i ngā kaihoko o te UK e tono anō ana i ngā rahinga i te marama o Poutū-te-rangi e rite ana ki ā rātou rahinga o Noema.E whakaatu ana tēnā ehara tēnei i te hua ā-wā. Kua whakarerekētia e au tā mātou mahere kaha wheketere kia rite ki tēnā, ā, e tohutohu ana ahau ki ngā kiritaki katoa kia pērā anō.

Me pēhea taku tautuhi i tētahi huinga kopare moe hiraka e toru ngā wahi kua rite mō te toa hokohoko

E ai ki aku wheako, me tutuki i tētahi huinga kopare moe 22-momona he mea hanga ki te 100% hiraka māpere mō ngā kaute koha toa nui o te UK e rima ngā paearu taketake.I kohikohia e au tēnei rārangi mai i ngā whakarāpopototanga a ngā kaihoko i tae mai ki ahau i ngā marama 18 kua hipa. Ka whakamahia e au hei rārangi arowhai mō ia whakatau utu hokohoko o te UK ka whakaritea e au. Kāore au e peke i tētahi o ēnei mahi:

1. Ko te iti rawa o te papanga e hiahiatia ana e au ko te hiraka māpere 100% 22-momme, 6A-grade.Kua whakamātauria e au ngā taumaha momme iti iho — 16 me te 19 — mō ngā kopare haere, engari kua kitea e au kāore e taea te whakatika i te utu £45+ e hiahiatia ana e te toa hokohoko o te UK. Ka whakamahia e au te 22-momme nā te mea e mōhio ana ahau ka tukuna e ia te matotoru, te pakari, me te mahi ārai mārama e tumanakohia ana e ngā kaihoko hokohoko.Nā te mea kua kite ahau i ngā kaihoko e whakakorekore ana i ngā tauira 19-momme i ngā hui arotake hua, kāore au e tuku i tetahi mea i raro iho i te 22-momme mō ngā toa hokohoko o te UK.
2. Me whiwhi ahau i tētahi tiwhikete Oeko-Tex Standard 100 whai mana, Akomanga I, i mua i taku tuku i tētahi ota mai i tētahi toa hokohoko o te UK.I ako ahau i tēnei akoranga i te ara uaua. I ngaro i ahau tētahi ota whakamātautau a John Lewis i te tau 2022 nā te mea kua pau te wā o tā mātou tiwhikete i te wā i nekehia ai tētahi wheketere. E kore rawa ahau e tuku i tēnā kia tupu anō. Ka tirohia e au ia tiwhikete.
3. Ko tāku tohe kia whakamahia te tipare e ōrite ana i te kounga hiraka ōrite.Ka tautohe ahau i tēnei kōrero ki ngā kaihoko katoa e tohutohu ana ahau. Ka kī atu ahau ki a rātou ko te here upoko polyester, miro rānei e honoa ana ki te kopare hiraka ka whakaiti i te tūnga kounga teitei. I tapahia e ahau te here upoko mai i te hiraka 22-momme rite tonu ki te kopare. Ka whakamanahia e ahau i raro i te tuhinga Oeko-Tex.Kua kitea e au ko ngā kiritaki e whakaae ana ki taku taunakitanga ka kite i te 15% te teitei ake o ngā reiti hoko anō.
4. I hoahoatia e au te putea rokiroki kia mahi rua hei takai whakaaturanga.Ka hangaia e au kia nui hei pupuri i te kopare me te potae. Ka hangaia e au mai i te hiraka kotahi, i te papanga taiao rānei. Ka tāia e au me te iti o te waitohu kia mōhio ai au ka ātaahua te āhua i roto i te pouaka whakaaturanga karāhe.
5. E whakawhāiti ana ahau i tā mātou whānuitanga tae ki te 6–8 SKU, katoa i roto i ngā tae ngawari, e hangai ana ki te oranga tinana.Ka whiriwhiria e au te māwhero whero, te champagne, te hina kōwhai, te puru kahurangi, te kakariki māwhero, me te mangu nā te mea koinei ngā tae e mōhio ana ahau e tino hiahiatia ana e ngā kaihoko o te UK. Ka karohia e au ngā tae kanapa, ngā tae e ahu mai ana i te āhua hou, nā te mea kua kite ahau i a rātou e tere rawa ana te tawhito o te hua, ā, kāore e tika ana kia huri hei koha.

E mea tonu ana ahau ki aku kiritaki, ka taea te whiriwhiri i ia paearu mēnā kei te hokohoko tuihono anake rātou.Engari mō ngā kaunta whakaaturanga o ngā toa hokohoko tūturu, ka whakaarohia e au he whakaritenga pumau. E mōhio ana ahau ehara te kaihoko i te arotake noa i te hua — engari kei te arotakehia e rātou mēnā ka taea e taku mekameka tuku te tuku kounga pumau puta noa i ngā mano tini waeine, i ia wā, i ia wā.Kua kite ahau i ngā kaihoko e whakarērea ana te ota o te 5,000 waeine nā te mea i rerekē te kukū o te tuitui o te tauira mā te 2 mm i waenga i ngā waeine.Ka whakarite ahau kia whakahaerehia e tā mātou wheketere taua rerekētanga ki raro iho i te 0.5 mm. E whakahīhī ana ahau ki taua tino tika.

He aha ahau i whakaaro ai he kore e taea te whiriwhiri i te Tiwhikete Paerewa 100 o Oeko-Tex

E toru ngā kaiwhakarato motuhake kua kite ahau i te ngaronga o ngā kirimana toa hokohoko o te UK i ngā tau e rua kua pahure ake nei nā te mea kāore i taea e rātou te whakaatu i tētahi tiwhikete Oeko-Tex Standard 100 whai mana.I mātakitaki ahau i ia keehi e whanake ana. I kite ahau he ataahua te hua. I whakaū ahau he tino pai ngā tauira. Engari i mātakitaki ahau i te tīma whakatutuki ture e tohu ana i te tiwhikete ngaro, ā, i kite ahau i te whakakorenga o te rārangi i mua i te taea e te kaihoko te tuhi i tētahi PO. Kāore au e hiahia kia mutu tō haumitanga i te ara kotahi.Nā te mea e mōhio ana ahau ki te mamae o taua whakakorenga — i pā mai anō ki ahau i te tau 2022 i taku hinganga i te whakawakanga a John Lewis mō taua take anō.

Ko te Oeko-Tex Standard 100 te pūnaha whakamātautau me te tiwhikete e whakatauritea ana e te ao mō ngā rauemi mata kakahu, ngā hua waenga, me ngā hua whakamutunga i ngā wāhanga katoa o te hanga.E mōhio ana ahau mai i te hītori tiwhikete o tā mātou wheketere, mō tētahi hua e pā ana ki te mata me ngā kanohi — te wāhi kiri tino tairongo — he mea whakahau te tiwhikete Akomanga I i raro i te nuinga o ngā kaupapa here kakahu o ngā kaihokohoko o te UK.Kua arotakehia e au aua kaupapa here mō ia kiritaki e mahi ana ahau. Kāore au e whakawhirinaki ki ngā whakapae noa iho.

Anei taku e tirotiro ai ina tae mai tā mātou tiwhikete Oeko-Tex i ia huringa whakahoutanga:

• Ka manatokohia e au te awhe uara pH.E mōhio ana ahau me taka ngā kakahu ki roto i te pH 4.0–7.5 mō ngā hua Akomanga I. Kua whakamātauria e au te hiraka i te pH 5.0–6.5 i muri i te tango pai i te kapia, engari kua kite ahau i ngā tukanga tae e pana ana i tēnei awhe ina whakamahia ngā matū hē.Nā te mea he wāhi hapa noa tēnei, ka tono tonu ahau ki tō mātou whare tae kia tukuna mai he whakamātautau tauira i mua i te tiwhikete i mua i te tukunga tae nui.E toru aku raruraru kua pā mai pēnei i roto i ngā tau e rima kua pahure ake nei.
• Kei te tohe ahau kia whakamātauria te ihirangi formaldehyde.E mōhio ana ahau ko te rohenga Akomanga I he 16 mg/kg — kāore e taea te kite.Kua kitea e au he maha ngā kaiwhakarato hiraka utu iti e kapea ana tēnei whakamātautau, koia te take i rahua ai ā rātou hua i ngā arotake a ngā kaihokohoko o te UK.Ka whakamātauria e au ia puranga i roto i tā mātou ake taiwhanga kounga i mua i te tukunga o ngā tauira hei whakamana whaimana.
• Ka arotakehia e au ngā hua o te whakamahi i ngā konganuku taumaha me ngā toenga patu pepeke.Ka whakamanahia e au te tiwhikete e whakaū ana kāore he mata, he cadmium, he mercury, he chromium, he arsenic rānei e hipa ana i ngā taumata iti. Mō ā mātou hiraka māpere e whakatipuria ana i te rohe o te awa o Yangtze, he onge taku kite i ngā raruraru - engari kāore au e whakawhirinaki ki te whakapae. Ka tirohia e au te tiwhikete ki ōku ake kanohi.
• Ka manatokohia e au te tutuki i ngā whakaritenga mō te aukati i te tae azo.E mōhio ana ahau me whakamātauhia ngā tae azo e 22 kua aukatia i raro i te 20 mg/kg. Ki taku whakaaro koinei te wāhi rahunga tino noa mōhua hirakai tāia ki ngā kaiwhakarato kāore i whakamanahia. E toru ngā puranga kua whakakahoretia e au mai i tā mātou ake mekameka tuku nā te mea i rahua rātou i te tātari tae azo.

Ka tino taunaki atu ahau kia tonoa e ngā kaihoko toa hokohoko katoa o te UK te nama tiwhikete Oeko-Tex — kaua ko te PDF anake — me te manatoko tika mā te pātengi raraunga ipurangi a Oeko-Tex iwww.oeko-tex.com.Kua tūtaki ahau ki ngā take o ngā kaiwhakarato e hanga ana i ngā tiwhikete. Ka whakamahia e au te pūnaha manatoko ipurangi i mua i te whakaae ki ngā tuhinga a tētahi kaiwhakarato hou. E rua ngā wā kua kitea e au ngā tiwhikete rūpahu i roto i taku mahi.Nā te mea ko te uara o te tiwhikete Oeko-Tex he rite ki tōna kaha ki te manatoko motuhake, ka tūtohu ahau kia whakamahia e koe te tirotiro ōrite.

E tohu ana hoki ahau ko te tiwhikete Oeko-Tex ka tukuna ki te whare hanga, ehara i te kamupene hokohoko.Ka whakamahia e au tēnei hei taputapu arotake mekameka tuku. Mēnā kāore e taea e te kaiwhakarato te whakarato i tētahi nama tiwhikete motuhake mō tētahi whare, ka whakapae ahau kei te tukuna e rātou te mahi whakaputa ki tētahi kaimahi kirimana kāore anō kia manatokohia. He maha ngā wā kua kite ahau i tēnei tauira. E mōhio ana ahau he tohu whero tonu tēnei mō te tutuki i ngā whakaritenga a te UK.Ka tūtohu ahau kia pērā anō te whakahaere.

Te Huarahi e Hurihia ai te Rahi o Peretānia me te Taurite Ergonomic

Ko tētahi o ngā hapa e kitea whānuitia ana e au mai i ngā kaiwhakarato kopare moe hiraka o te ao ko te whakataurite i te rahi o ā rātou hua kia rite ki ngā ine o te upoko Āhia, me te whakaaro ka urutau ngā kaihoko o Peretānia.Ka taea e au te kī atu ki a koe mai i ā mātou raraunga whakahoki kāore rātou e pena.Kua inehia e au ngā reiti hokinga mai o ā mātou kiritaki, ā, i kitea e au ko ngā kopare moe kāore i te tau pai i roto i ngā toa hokohoko o te UK he toharite o ngā hokinga mai he 12–15%, ki te whakaritea ki te 3–5% mō ngā hua he tika te rahi.Ki taku whakaaro kāore e whakaaetia taua āputa 10% nā te mea e mōhio ana ahau ka taea e ia te whakangaro i tō tawhē i runga i te hua hokohoko £55.Nā te mea kua kite ahau i ngā kaihoko e kore e aro ki te rahi, ā, e ono marama pea e whakahaere ana i ngā whakahokinga mai, koia ahau ka whakatairanga i te taunga i runga ake i te nuinga o ngā whakaritenga katoa.

He rerekē rawa ngā inenga o te porowhita o te upoko o Peretānia i ngā inenga o te porowhita o te upoko o Āhia.Nā roto i ngā urupare a ō mātou kiritaki o te UK, kua whakaū ahau ko te porowhita o te upoko o te pakeke o te UK he 56–58 cm mō ngā tāne, ā, he 54–56 cm mō ngā wāhine — he 2–3 cm te rahi ake i te taupori Āhia ōrite.Kua whakamatauria e au tēnei e au anō i ngā wā maha. Ina whakamahia e au he tauira rahi Āhia paerewa mō te kopare moe, ka pēhia te āhua. E mōhio ana ahau ka waiho he tohu whero. Ka taea e au te matapae ka puta he arotake hua kino ka totohu te SKU katoa. Kua kite ahau i tēnei e pā ana ki ētahi o aku hoa whakataetae e toru.

I runga i ngā kōrero a ngā kaihoko o ngā toa hokohoko o te UK, ka tūtohu ahau i ngā whakaritenga rahi e whai ake nei mō tētahi kopare moe o te mākete o Peretānia:

• I whakatakotoria e au te roa o te whitiki rapa ki te 38–42 cm, kāore i totorohia,e 52–58 henimita te porowhita kua totorohia. Kua whakamatauria e au tēnei whānuitanga puta noa i ngā āhua o te upoko o te UK. Kua whakaū ahau ka uru ki te whānuitanga rahi katoa o te UK me te kore e tino whānui mō ngā upoko iti.Nā te mea i whakamātauria e au ngā waeine e 200 me ngā kaihoko o te UK i mua i te whakaoti i tēnei whakatakotoranga, e u ana tōku whakaaro ki tēnei awhe.
• Ka hoahoahia e au te whānui o te kopare ki te 20–22 cm— E mōhio ana ahau he whānui tēnei hei taupoki i ngā kanohi katoa, me te kore e pēhi i te piriti o te ihu. E mōhio ana ahau mai i ngā urupare a ā mātou kiritaki, mā te kōpare whaiti rawa ka uru te mārama ki roto i ngā taha. Ki ahau nei koinei te amuamu tuatahi mai i ngā kaihoko o te UK. Kua pānuihia e au ngā arotake hua katoa i tae mai ki ā mātou kiritaki.
• E 9–10 cm te teitei o te kopare i tohua e au, he mea hanga ki te pere ihu ngawari.Ka whakamahia e au tēnei hei ārai i te pēhi a te papanga ki ngā kamo. Kua whakamātauria e au ngā kopare papatahi e pā ana ki ngā kamo. I kitea e au ka whakararuraru, ka whakaara hoki i te kaimau i te wā moe REM. Ki taku whakaaro he āhuatanga ngoikore tēnei mō tētahi hua moe.
• Kei roto i ahau he whitiki taura silicone ka taea te whakarite ki muri.E mahi ana ahau i tēnei nā te mea kua kitea e au kāore e pai ngā kopare kiripaka pumau mō te whānuitanga o ngā rahi o ngā upoko e kitea ana i roto i te hunga hokohoko o Peretānia. Kua kohia e au ngā raraunga whakamātautau taunga mai i te 500+ o ngā kaihoko o te UK hei whakaū i tēnei. Ka hangaia e au he hoahoa kia rite ki ā rātou inenga tuturu.

Ka tūtohu ahau kia tono ngā kaihoko o te UK i ngā tauira taunga mō ngā pane o Peretānia tūturu — kaua ki ngā manekin Āhia noa — i mua i te whakaae kia hangaia kia rahi.Ka taea e taku wheketere te whakaputa i ngā tauira whakamātautau me te rahi kua tohua e koe i roto i ngā rā mahi 10. Ka whakarerekē tonu ahau i tā mātou tauira i runga i ngā urupare whakamātautau taunga o te UK i mua i te whakaae ki ngā rahinga MOQ.Nā te mea he pai ke ki ahau te whakapau i ngā wiki e toru ki te whakapai ake i te taunga o ngā tauira 50 i te whakahaere i ngā hokinga mai o ngā waeine 5,000, ka whakauruhia e au tēnei ki roto i ngā rārangi wā o ia kaupapa.Kua maha ngā wā kua kite ahau i taua tataunga e takarohia ana.

Taku Huarahi ki te Tākai Iti mō ngā Paerewa a John Lewis me Selfridges

Kua ako ahau i ngā wheako tika, mēnā ka tae mai tō kopare moe hiraka i roto i tētahi pouaka kātene tānga tae katoa me te waitohu kanapa me ngā matapihi kirihou, e kore e whakatakotoria ki runga i te kaute oranga o Selfridges.I whakakahoretia e tētahi o aku kiritaki tētahi huinga kopare hiraka tino pai i te tau 2023 nā te mea i takahia e te takai ā rātou aratohu hokohoko tirohanga. I ako ahau i taua akoranga. I hanga houtia anō e au tā mātou raina takai. Mai i taua wā, kāore anō kia whakakahoretia ngā takai e tētahi toa hokohoko o te UK.

I runga i aku kōrerorero ki ngā kaihoko hokohoko o te UK, ka taea e au te kī atu kua tino huri ngā whakaritenga mō te takai ki ngā rauemi iti noa, pumau, me te ngāwari ki te pā.Anei ngā mea ka whakauruhia e au ki roto i ngā whakarāpopototanga mō ngā tākai o ngā toa hokohoko o te UK:

• Ka tohua e au ngā pouaka pepa kraft kāore i mā, ngā putea kāri rānei.Kāore rawa ahau e whakamahi i te tānga CMYK tae-katoa. Ka whakamahia e au te whakairo, te tānga pepa konutea, te tohu tuhinga-rua-anake rānei i mua.I hoahoatia te takai e au kia rite ki te mea e tika ana mō runga i tētahi kaute oranga, kaua ki tētahi whata taonga takaro.Kua tae mai ki ahau ngā urupare tika mai i ngā kaihoko hokohoko a Selfridges e whakaū ana i tēnei manakohanga.
• Ka whakakorea e au ngā wāhanga kirihou katoa.E mōhio ana ahau ki ngā Ture Para Tākai o te UK — e whakahaeretia ana e teTe Tari Taiao i raro i ngā Ture mō ngā Herenga Kawenga a te Kaihanga (Para Tākai) 2025— whakatakotohia he taake takai kirihou o te £210.82 ia tana mō ngā takai kirihou he iti iho i te 30% te ihirangi hangarua. Kua tatauhia e au ka piki ake ngā utu a aku kiritaki mā te £0.08–£0.12 ia wae i mua i te pānga o te taake.
• He pepa, he kāri rānei kua whakamanahia e te FSC anake taku e tiki mai ai.E mōhio ana ahau me whiwhi tiwhikete FSC a Selfridges, a John Lewis, me a Harrods mai i ā rātou kaiwhakarato takai. Ka whakaratohia e te hoa takai o tā mātou wheketere he tiwhikete mekameka tiaki FSC whai mana mō ia puranga. Māku anō tēnei e whakamana.
• Ka tāia e au ngā tohutohu tiaki ki runga i ngā pepa whakauru hangarua kāore anō kia pania.Ka whakamahia e au ngā ata toi rārangi māmā mō ngā tohutohu horoi — horoia ā-ringa ki te matao, whakamaroke ki te hau, kāore he wai mā — hei whakaiti i te hiahia mō ngā tuhinga reo maha.Nā te mea kua kitea e au he pai ake ki ngā kiritaki o te UK ngā tohutohu poto, ā-kanohi, kaua ki ngā tuhinga matotoru e hiahia ana kia whakamāoritia, nō reira ka whakamāmā noa iho e au.
• Ka whakarite ahau he pai hoki te takai o waho mō te whakaaturanga.Ina tae mai te hua i roto i tētahi pouaka kraft noa me te whitiki puku, ka whakatakotoria tika e te tīma hokohoko ki runga i te whata me te kore e takai anō. E mōhio ana ahau ka penapenahia te mahi, ka whakaitihia hoki te para o te takai. E kī mai ana ā mātou kiritaki he mea nui tēnei ki a rātou. He mea nui ki ahau tēnei i roto i ngā hoahoa katoa.

Ki ahau nei, ko te takai te āhua tuatahi o te hua i runga i te kaute koha.I roto i ngā toa hokohoko nui, e mōhio ana ahau ka whiriwhiria e te kaihoko tētahi hua i runga i tōna āhua i runga i te whata. E mōhio ana ahau ko te hiraka i roto te mea e hoko ai, engari e mōhio ana hoki ahau ko te takai te mea e hoko ai.Kua kite ahau i tētahi huinga taonga e toru-ngā-waahanga he pai te takai, he nui ake te hoko i tētahi atu huinga taonga kāore i te pai te takai, mā te ōwehenga 3:1.Kei a au ngā raraunga hoko-ā-roto hei whakamatau i tēnā.

Taku Anga Hoko mō ngā Kaihoko Toa Tari o te UK

Ina mahi tahi ahau me ngā kaihoko toa nui o te UK, ka ārahi ahau i te kōrero hokohoko ki tua atu i te utu mō ia wae.Anei ngā āhuatanga e whitu e tohutohu ana ahau ki ngā kaiwhakahaere hokohoko katoa kia arotakehia i mua i te whiriwhiri i tētahi kaiwhakarato huinga kopare moe hiraka:

1. Ka tūtohu ahau kia whiriwhiria te ngāwari o te MOQ mō te whakamātautau whānuitanga.Ko te nuinga o ngā wheketere hiraka Hainamana e hiahia ana kia 500–1000 ngā waeine mō ia SKU mō ia tae. Ka whiriwhiria e au he MOQ whakamātautau o te 200–300 ngā waeine mō ia tae mō te ota tuatahi, me te hainatanga o tētahi whakaaetanga hei whakanui ake i te MOQ katoa i muri i te whakamanatanga hoko-ā-roto.Nā te mea e mōhio ana ahau mai i ngā wheako ka taea e te kaihoko me te kaiwhakarato te karo i ngā hapa utu nui mā te whakamātautau i tētahi awhe i mua i te whakapau kaha ki te rahinga katoa, nō reira ka tūtohu tonu ahau i tēnei huarahi.
2. E whakahuahia ana e au te roanga o te wā arahi mō te whakaputanga whaimana Oeko-Tex i roto i te 45–55 ngā rā mai i te ota kua whakaūtia.Ka taea e au te whakateretere i ngā ota ki te 25–30 rā, engari ka tāpirihia e au he utu tāpiri 10–15% ki te utu FOB. Kāore au e tūtohu kia whakatereterehia ngā ota tuatahi nā te mea e mōhio ana au ko te tuhinga ture anake ka roa te tukatuka tika i te 7–10 rā.
3. Ka tūtohu ahau mō ngā mahi tuku kaipuke.E tatau ana ahau i te roanga o te utanga moana mai i Ningbo ki Felixstowe, ki Southampton rānei, arā, e 28–35 ngā rā, ā, e $2,800–$3,500 te utu mō tētahi ipu 20-putu te roa o ngā hua hiraka. E mōhio ana ahau e 5–7 ngā rā e roanga ai te utanga rererangi mai i Shanghai ki Heathrow, engari e 4–6 ngā wā ka nui ake te utu mō ia kirokaramu. E taunaki ana ahau i te utanga rererangi mō ngā ota whakamātautau tuatahi. E whakamahere ana ahau i ngā wātaka utanga moana hei whakakī tonu i ngā utanga.
4. Ka whakarite ahau kua oti ngā tuhinga hanganga ture a te UKCA.E whakaū ana ahau he mea hiahiatia te tohu UKCA mō ngā hua kakahu i te mākete o Peretānia — ehara i te tohu CE. Ka tukuna e au he Whakapuakitanga Whakaritenga UKCA, ā, kei a au tētahi māngai whai mana kei te UK e hiahiatia ana i raro i ngā Ture Haumaru Hua Whānui 2005.
5. Ka pātai atu au mō te tiwhikete Paerewa Ao o BRC mō te arotake whare.Mena kei te hiahia tō kaihokohoko ki ngā arotake wheketere a te hunga tuatoru, ka tūtohu ahauNgā Paerewa Ao o te BRChei kaupapa tiwhikete e tino whakaaetia ana. Ka whakaū ahau mēnā kei te kaiwhakarato te tiwhikete BRC i mua i taku hainatanga i tētahi kirimana.
6. Ka tāpirihia e au he tahua hapa 2% ki roto i ia whakaaetanga hokoKa tuhituhi ahau mā ngā kiritaki o te UK. Ka whakarite ahau kia utua e tā mātou wheketere te utu whakahoki me te whakakapinga mō ngā hua katoa e kore e eke ki ngā whakamātautau ā-wāhi a Oeko-Tex i ngā tikanga a te tari taake o te UK, i ngā whakaritenga rānei a te kaihokohoko. Ki taku whakaaro, kāore tēnei e taea te whiriwhiri i roto i aku kirimana.
7. Ka tūtohu ahau kia tāpirihia he NDA me tētahi rarangi motuhake 12-maramai roto i te kirimana tuku mēnā ka haumi koe ki ngā takai ritenga, ki te whakawhanake tae, ki te rahi motuhake rānei. Ka mahi ahau i tēnei nā te mea kua kite ahau i ngā kaiwhakarato e tuku ana i ngā whakaritenga tika ki ngā kaihokohoko whakataetae o te UK i te wā kāore ngā kaihoko i tiaki i ā rātou hoahoa.

Kua kite ahau i ngā kaihoko e aro nui ana ki te utu mō ia wae, ā, ka mutu, ka eke ki te taumata e hiahiatia ana engari kāore i eke ki te whata.Ka kī tonu ahau ki aku kiritaki ko te utu tuturu mō tētahi huinga kopare moe hiraka mō ngā toa hokohoko o te UK ehara i te utu FOB. Ka whakamārama ahau ko te utu FOB me te whanaketanga takai, te manatoko tiwhikete, te utanga, te tutuki i te UKCA, me te 3.5–4x o te tawhē hokohoko e pā ana ki te toa hokohoko.Ki te kore e nui te kounga e hiahiatia ana i te utu mō ia wae, e mōhio ana ahau e kore te hua e ora i te wā tuatahi.Kua maha rawa ngā wā kua kite ahau i tēnei tauira e pūrua ana, kāore i tika kia warewaretia.

Ngā Auahatanga Hokohoko Koha Hauora e Aroturukihia ana e Au mō te Tono mō ngā Huinga Kōpare Moe Hiraka o te UK

E whā ngā au motuhake kua kitea e au mai i ā mātou raraunga hokohoko o te UK e pā tika ana ki te hokonga o ngā huinga kopare moe hiraka i te tau 2026:

• Kua kitea e au ko te hoatu koha ki a ia anō te mea nui hei hoko i ngā hua oranga i te UK.E ai ki ngā raraunga hokohoko a ā mātou kiritaki mai i te tau 2025, ka taea e au te whakaū ko te 58% o ngā hoko koha oranga tinana i mahia e te kaihoko whakamutunga mā rātou anō - ehara i te mea hei koha mā ētahi atu. Kua whakarerekētia e au tā mātou rautaki tākai kia rite ki tēnei tirohanga nā te mea e mōhio ana ahau ko te kaiwhakamahi ūnga te whakatuwhera i te hua mā rātou anō.
• Kua kite ahau i ngā toa hokohoko hauora o Peretānia e neke ana ki ngā huinga hua e ahu mai ana i te wheako, kaua i ngā taonga takitahi.Ki taku whakaaro he mea whai hua te hoko i tētahi kopare moe hiraka kotahi. Kua hoahoatia e au te huinga e toru ngā wāhanga — kopare, he potae, he putea — hei whakapai ake i ia rā.Kua kite ahau i ngā toa hokohoko e whakarite ana i ā rātou kaute oranga kia rite ki tēnei ariā o ngā kete kawa, nā te mea e mōhio ana ahau ka piki ake te uara o te kete me ngā hoko anō.
• Ki ahau nei, ko te hokohoko oranga ā-kamupene he hongere pakihi-ki-te-pakihi kāore i te tino whakamahia mō ngā kaiwhakarato toa hokohoko o te UK.Ka hokona e ngā kaitukumahi nui o Peretānia ngā huinga kopare moe hiraka hei koha ā-kamupene mō ngā kaupapa oranga o ngā kaimahi. Kua kite ahau i tēnei, inā koa i mua i te wā hararei o Tīhema me te Wiki Whakamōhiotanga Hauora Hinengaro i te marama o Mei.Neke atu i te 2,000 ngā ota kua oti i ahau te whakatutuki mai i tētahi kiritaki umanga kotahi mā te kaupapa koha pakihi-ki-pākihi a tētahi toa nui.Ka āta aroturukihia e au tēnei hongere nā te mea e whakapono ana ahau ka tino tipu haere.
• Ko tāku tohe me whakamana ngā kereme mō te rauemi tauwhiro, kaua e whakapaetia.E mōhio ana ahau kei te piki haere te matatau o ngā kaihoko me ngā tīma ture hokohoko o te UK ki te horoi i ngā ture matomato.Ka tūtohu ahau kia tonoa e ngā kaihoko toa nui katoa o te UK he pūrongo whai rauemi katoa mai i tā rātou kaiwhakarato hiraka i mua i te ota papatipu tuatahi.Ka whakaratohia e au ēnei tuhinga hei wāhanga paerewa o tā mātou kete whakatau utu. Kei roto i tēnei ko te takenga mai o te pāmu, te whare tukatuka, te whare tae, me ngā rā whakamana.

Ki ahau nei, ehara te kaunta koha oranga i te whakaaturanga hokohoko noa iho — ki ahau nei he whakapuakitanga mō ngā uara o te toa hokohoko nui.Ki tōku whakapono, ko ia hua kei runga i taua kaute he tohu mō te kaupapa e whakatairangahia ana e te kaihokohoko: te kounga, te oranga tonutanga, te noho whai tikanga.Nāku i hoahoa tā mātou huinga kopare moe hiraka 22-momona i hangaia ki te māpere māori me te tiwhikete Oeko-Tex, te rahi Piritana, me te takai kirihou kore hei whakapuaki i aua uara me te kore he kupu hokohoko.Kua hanga e au tā mātou raina hua katoa i runga i tēnei mātāpono.

Me pēhea taku aromatawai i tētahi kaiwhakarato kopare moe hiraka mō ngā whakaritenga o te UK

Neke atu i te 12 tau ahau i roto i te hokohoko hiraka, kua whakawhanakehia e au he anga aromatawai kaiwhakarato e whakamahia ana e au me ia kaihoko o te UK e tohutohu ana ahau.Ka tūtohu ahau kia whakamahia tēnei rārangi arowhai e rima ngā taahiraa i mua i te tuku i tō ota tuatahi ki tētahi kaiwhakarato:

1. Ka tīmata tonu ahau mā te tono i te nama tiwhikete Oeko-Tex Standard 100.me te manatoko mā te pātengi raraunga ipurangi mana a Oeko-Tex. Kāore au e whakaae ki te whakaahua mata, ki te PDF rānei anake. Kua ako au mēnā kāore te nama tiwhikete e taea te rapu mā te marea, kāore te hua i te whaimana.
2. Ka tono ahau mō tētahi pūrongo arotake BRC, SEDEX rāneimai i te wheketere motuhake e hanga ana i tāu ota. E mōhio ana ahau kāore e ranea te kōtaha whānui o te kamupene. E whakaū ana ahau ka kapi te arotake i te raina whakaputa, te whare tae, me te rohe tākai.
3. Ka tono ahau i ngā tauira taurite i ngā rahi o te UKā, ka whakamātauria ki ngā āhua o te upoko o Peretānia. Ka inehia e au te roa o te whitiki kua totorohia, te whānui o te kopare, me te āhua o te ihu ki te hunga e whaia ana e koe. Ki te kore te tauira e tau ki te porowhita o te upoko 56 cm te roa, ka whakakahoretia e au.
4. Ka tono ahau i tētahi tauira mō te takaie rite ana ki ngā aratohu hokohoko tirohanga a tō kaihokohoko. Ka whakaū ahau i te mana tiwhikete FSC o te pepa. Ka manatoko ahau kāore he wāhanga kirihou i whakaurua ki te huihuinga whakamutunga.
5. Ka whiriwhiria e au tētahi rarangi whakamana koungae kapi ana i te whakamātautau ā-wāhi a Oeko-Tex i ngā tari tāke o te UK, te manatoko i te pumau o te tae (Taumata 4, neke atu rānei i runga i te tauine hina), me te pumau o ngā āhuatanga i muri i te horoinga.

Ka tūtohu anō hoki ahau kia toro atu koe ki te wheketere, kia tono rānei i tētahi arotake tuatoru i mua i te tuku i tō ota papatipu tuatahi.Kei Shengzhou, te kawanatanga o Zhejiang tō mātou wheketere — tata ki te 2.5 hāora mā te tereina tereina mai i te taunga rererangi o Shanghai Pudong.Nau mai, haere mai ngā kaihoko o te UK ki te toro mai ki tō mātou whare hanga, ki te arotake i te raina hanga kua whakamanahia e Oeko-Tex, me te matapaki kanohi ki te kanohi i ngā whakaritenga ritenga.Kua kitea e au ko ngā hononga roa rawa atu o ngā kaiwhakarato i tēnei umanga he mea hanga i runga i ngā haerenga ki te wheketere, ehara i te mea ko ngā whiriwhiringa īmēra. Kua manaaki ahau i ngā kaihoko mai i a John Lewis me Harrods i tō mātou whare. Ka taea e au te kī atu ki a koe, i ia haerenga, he hononga kaha ake i taku i hanga mā te īmēra anake.

Nā te mea e whakapono ana ahau ehara te huinga kopare moe hiraka i te hua hokohoko.E mōhio ana ahau he wheako hokohoko tēnei i hangaia mai i te whiriwhiri i ngā papanga tae noa ki te tiwhikete tae noa ki te takai. Ki taku whakaaro he mea nui ia wāhanga. E tino mohio ana ahau me taea te whai i ia wāhanga.Kua hanga e au tā mātou pūnaha whakaputa katoa i runga i tēnei whakapono, ā, me whakamana e koe.

Ngā Pātai Auau mō te Kimi i ngā Huinga Kōpare Moe Hiraka mō ngā Hokohoko o te UK

Whakamutunga: Me pēhea taku hanga i tētahi kopare moe hiraka pumau mō te hokohoko o te UK

E tino whakapono ana ahau ko te kaute koha oranga o te toa hokohoko nui o te UK te hongere hokohoko tino nui mō ngā taputapu moe hiraka kounga teitei i te mākete o Peretānia i ēnei rā.Kua kite ahau i ngā tawhē e pai ake ana i te hokohoko ipurangi. Kua mātakitaki ahau i te kaha haere o te hononga waitohu me ia whakaaturanga Wellbeing Hall. E mōhio ana ahau mai i ā mātou raraunga ota anō ka taea e ngā kiritaki makona te matapae i ngā moni whiwhi he mea onge te tuku mai e ngā hongere tika-ki-te-kaihoko.Nā te mea kua hanga e au tā mātou pakihi hokohoko katoa o te UK i runga i tēnei whakapono, ka taea e au te kōrero me te tino mārama.

Engari e mōhio ana hoki ahau e hiahia ana te hongere ki te whakahaere i te ture — nā te mea kua hangaia e au tā mātou pakihi i runga i tēnā.Me whiwhi te katoa o ngā hua kei runga i te kaute oranga o Selfridges, o John Lewis rānei i tōna tūranga mā te whakatakotoranga, te tiwhikete, te takai, me te pono o te mekameka tuku.Kāore au e whakaae kia tapahia te kounga o te papanga. Kāore au e whakaae kia ngaro ngā tuhinga ture. Kāore au e muru i ngā takai e takahi ana i ngā paerewa oranga tonutanga.Kua kite ahau i ngā kaiwhakarato e ngaro ana ngā kirimana e ono-matihaita nā te mea i ngana rātou ki te penapena £0.50 mō ia waeine i runga i te tiwhikete.Kāore au e tuku i tēnā kia pā ki aku kiritaki.

Kua roa ahau i roto i tēnei umanga, ā, kua mōhio ahau ehara ko ngā kaiwhakarato e angitu ana i ngā toa hokohoko nui o te UK i te mea iti te utu — engari ko rātou te mea tino ngohengohe.Ka haumi au ki te tiwhikete Oeko-Tex. Ka whakarerekē au i te rahi kia rite ki ngā kaihoko o Peretānia. Ka hoahoa au i ngā takai e pai ana te tīma hokohoko ki te whakaatu. Ka hanga hononga au mā roto i ngā haerenga ki ngā wheketere me te whakawhitiwhiti kōrero mārama.Kua hangaia e au tā mātou kamupene katoa i runga i ēnei mātāpono nā te mea e mōhio ana ahau koinei ngā mea e hiahiatia ana e te hokohoko o te UK.

Mena he kaihoko toa nui koe nō te UK e arotake ana i ngā huinga kopare moe hiraka mō āu kaute koha oranga, ka tono atu ahau kia tūhuratia e koe ā mātou hua iwww.cnwonderfultextile.com/silk-sleep-mask/Ko au tonu te kaitirotiro i ngā utu katoa o ngā toa hokohoko e puta mai ana i tō mātou wheketere. Māku e whakarite kia tutuki i ia ota — mai i te whakamātautau 200-wae ki te tuku nui 5,000-wae — ngā whakaritenga kua whakamāramahia e au i roto i tēnei tuhinga.Nā te mea e whakapono ana ahau ki te kawenga, ka tuhia e au tōku ingoa ki runga i ia whakahuatanga utu ka hainatia e au.

Tukuna mai ō whakaritenga tutuki i ngā whakaritenga, ō whakaritenga mō te takai, me te utu hokohoko e hiahiatia ana. Ka hoki mai ahau me tētahi tauira mahere, he rārangi arowhai tiwhikete, me tētahi rārangi wā tuku e tika ana mō tō huringa hoko.Kei te tino hiahia ahau ki te hanga tahi i tā koutou mekameka tuku taonga mō ngā toa hokohoko o te UK.
