A law label is a legally required tag or label on new items describing the fabric and filling regulating the United States mattress, upholstery, and stuffed article (e.g., pillows, plush toys, comforters, etc.)
The purpose of the law label is to inform the consumer of the hidden contents, or "filling materials" inside bedding and furniture products.
Laws requiring these tags were passed in the United States to inform consumers as to whether the stuffed article they were buying contained new or recycled materials.
Such stuffed article labelling laws exist in other jurisdictions, for example, the tag required on duvets sold in the United Kingdom, that describe the materials used and the tog insulation rating.
Many mattress manufacturers such as Sealy, Simmons and Serta require these tags to be produced in the event of a warranty claim.
