FTC Workshop on "Green Guides" and Claims for Building and Textiles
Green Guides and Claims for Building and Textiles Workshop is Third in Agency's Review of its Environmental Marketing Guides
As part of its review of its environmental marketing guidelines, also known as the "Green Guides," the Federal Trade Commission will host its third public workshop to examine developments in environmental claims for building products, buildings, and textiles, along with consumer perceptions of those claims
The workshop will provide an opportunity for interested parties to study green textile and building claims. Discussion topics will include:
1) consumer perceptions of environmental claims for building and textile products;
2) the state of substantiation for green building and textile claims; and
3) the need for additional or updated FTC guidance in these areas.
The workshop will be held at the agency's satellite building in Washington, DC. FTC Chairman William E. Kovacic will provide opening remarks.
