Textile Fiber Products Identification Act
Textile Fiber Products Identification Act is a consumer protection act in the United States. The act protects the interest of producers and consumers by imposing regulations of labelling (the mandatory content disclosure) and advertising of textile products. The act specifies labeling requirements and numerous guidelines for the advertising of textile products that should qualify the compliance in accordance with the directions in the act. The Federal Trade Commission considers any form of misbranding to be illegal. Moreover, it also requires that the commission provide a generic name for each man-made fibre, in particular for those not yet named. "Natural" and "manufactured" fibers were among two major groups classified by the act, which also maintains a list of generic names that is updated with each new entrant.
The Textile Fiber Products Identification Act concerns all textile fiber products other than wool, which is already governed by the Wool Product Label Number. The law prevents misinformation about the fiber content, misbranding, and any unfair advertising practice and compel to function in a certain way. The act specifies the requirement of textile products such as guidelines about labelling, tagging, Country of origin, fiber designation etc. The act also covers the manufacturers and marketers of the textile products.
Congress 85th passed this legislation on 2 September 1958, but it came into force in 1960. The act has a number of sections that set out regulations for different segments.
The Textile Fiber Products Identification Act provides a set of terminology that defines "what is to be called what" while communicating in the textile product trade.
The law has an important role to play in providing 'generic names' and the definitions of artificial fibers. Newly manufactured fibers are updated in their list. The generic name of the fiber is an essential element of the information required by law and a must to be mentioned when labeling products. The name given to a synthetic fibre is based on its chemical composition. Generic names begin with lowercase letters. Examples include olefin, nylon, and acrylic.
