Transcript
The Textile Regulation is the EU's harmonised rulebook for how textiles are labelled: which fibre names may be used, and how the composition is stated.
It applies to manufacturers, importers and distributors of products made of at least 80 percent textile fibres and of products treated as textiles; whoever first places the product on the EU market answers for the label.
Only the harmonised fibre names in Annex I may be used, the full composition is stated by weight in descending order within agreed tolerances, and "100 percent", "pure" and "all" are reserved for single-fibre products.
You establish the true composition by weight, label with harmonised names and percentages in descending order, check the tolerances, disclose non-textile parts of animal origin, and make the label durable and legible in the language of every market, including online.
Conphora maps your textile products against the Regulation, flags gaps in fibre naming, composition statements, tolerances, the animal-origin disclosure and language coverage, and alerts you when the rules change.
