There Will Be New Changes In The Export Of Wool Label To The United States.

< p > the United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC) decided in early 2014 to amend the wool products labeling act 1939 (also known as the wool code) and to collect public opinions. The proposed regulations will be consistent with the requirements of < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_q.asp" > wool rule < /a > and "wool clothing fabric label fairness and international standard law", and are consistent with the proposed amendments to the textile regulations. < /p >
< p > at present, the wool code requires < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > wool < /a > labels on products should disclose the names of manufacturers or dealers, the country of origin of products processed or produced, and the fiber content information of wool products. It is reported that in January 2012, FTC had solicited opinions on the rule. The purpose of the proposed amendment is to explain and update the regulations so as to make them clearer and easier to understand. The proposed revision includes the following points: the incorporation of new definitions of cashmere and very fine wool; clearly containing product descriptions of new wool; allowing certain products to announce trademarks and properties of fibers, even if they do not disclose all the fiber content of the products; according to the regulations, the country of origin of the imported products should be the country that processes or produces the product; it is illegal for the guarantor to understand that the false warranty is provided, and that it will actively monitor and ensure compliance with the applicable law; and it is required to renew the continuous guarantee every year, which will last for one year unless the guarantee is lifted in advance. On the other hand, the Federal Trade Commission of the United States refuses to define yak, camel or other animal fibers as wool, and refuses to adopt specific test methods to confirm the certification procedures of fiber types, diameters and labels, refuses to exempt products with trace wool content, and changes the language requirements of regulatory labels. < /p >
< p > wool products are the main textile materials in Asia Europe market. Because of its soft and elastic properties, it can be used to produce fabrics such as woollen, woolen, blankets and felt fabrics. The United States is an important "a href=" //www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp "export market < /a > of wool products and other textiles in Ningbo. In the first half of 2013, the value of textiles exported to the United States in Ningbo amounted to 265 million US dollars, of which, the amount of wool products exported to sweaters and wool trousers exceeded US $2 million 792 thousand and 300. However, the United States has strict standards for imported textiles, and has made strict labeling requirements for functional clothing and leather products in the near future. The inspection and quarantine department reminds enterprises to pay close attention to the revision process of the label act of the wool products at any time, and to familiarise themselves with the modification requirements of the label requirements before the effective date, to ensure the integrity and correctness of the labels, so as to better integrate with international standards; on the other hand, to enhance the management level and product quality of the enterprises, improve the added value of the products, and solve the problems existing in the products through communication with foreign trade partners, so as to resolve the export conflicts. < /p >
