Key requirements for fiber composition, language, visibility and label attachment in the EU.
In the European Union, textile fiber names and fiber-composition labeling are governed by Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011. Consumer textile products generally need clear fiber-composition information.
For products containing multiple fibers, fiber names and percentages by weight are normally shown in descending order. Composition information should be clearly separated from other branding or care information.
Do not assume one English label is sufficient for every EU market. Required languages can vary by destination, so the target market and current rules should be checked when planning multilingual label space.
