of textile fiber products. The Textile Rules establish disclosure
requirements that assist consumers in making informed purchasing
decisions, and recordkeeping requirements that assist the
Commission in enforcing the Rules. The Rules also contain a
petition procedure for requesting the establishment of generic
names for textile fibers.
