FTC Rules 2024: Bamboo Fabric Claims for Baby Products

Frequently Asked Questions

Bamboo on baby-fabric labels usually means chemically processed viscose or rayon—not raw bamboo cloth—so shoppers should read the fiber line, not the “bamboo” headline. Shop MossRiver baby one-pieces in bamboo viscose blends; every product page lists the fiber line.

Q: What are the key FTC rules for bamboo fabric claims on baby products in 2024?

A: The FTC rules state that marketing bamboo fabrics as 'natural bamboo fiber' or 'natural fiber' is misleading. Products should be labeled as 'rayon made from bamboo' or 'viscose made from bamboo' instead.

Q: How should bamboo fabrics used in baby clothing be properly labeled according to the FTC?

A: According to the FTC, bamboo fabrics in baby clothing should be labeled as 'rayon made from bamboo' or 'viscose made from bamboo' to be accurate and not misleading.

Q: What is the FTC's stance on misleading 'greenwashing' claims related to bamboo fabric?

A: The FTC aims to combat greenwashing by requiring clear and accurate labeling of bamboo fabrics, ensuring that consumers are not misled by false claims of naturalness or sustainability.
