ONTARIO LAW LABEL REQUIREMENTS

Ontario - Upholstered and Stuffed Articles Act

Currently, Ontario is one of three provinces in Canada to have legislation governing the labeling of upholstered and stuffed articles. (The other two provinces are Manitoba and Québec.) The Ontario Act broadly defines “upholstered and stuffed articles” to mean “an article any part of which contains stuffing”, and requires that such articles be labeled as prescribed by the Regulations immediately after their manufacture, with the labels applied so that they are easily visible. The sale of such articles without the required labels is prohibited.

Please refer to the TSSA web site for legislation details:

PRESCRIBED LABEL FORMAT

Note:

  • Minimum size does not include sewing edges or contents to be declared.
  • Labels must be non-paper, made of a white durable fabric or synthetic material such as tyvek, mylar, linen or a material equivalent in strength to those materials, and detail to be in black only.
  • Labels must be securely affixed in a conspicuous area of the article.
  • The Upholstered and stuffed Articles Program of the Technical Standards and Safety Authority offers an optional Label Approval Service, which assists our customers in reducing non-compliance issues from occurring at the retail level. For more information about the Label Approval Service, please call or email Eva Izzo at [416] 734-3461 / Toll Free 1-877-682-8772 or email at .

PARTS LIST [CONTAINER DIRECT]

  • Please provide a list of available parts to Director of Customer Care: .
  • Note: A start-up-kit of replacement parts will be ordered for pieces only available direct from Asia to ensure we are able to quickly repair identified warrantable issues.
