Illinois HB4702 mandates ingredient labeling on diaper packages sold in the state.
Illinois HB4702, known as the Diaper Labeling Act, requires that within 12 months of the act's effective date, all diaper packages sold in the state must include a clear list of ingredients in order of predominance. This applies to both disposable and reusable diapers, aiming to protect adults, parents, and children from potential allergens. The act defines "ingredient" as any intentionally added substance in a diaper. Violators face civil penalties of up to 1% of their total annual in-state diaper sales, not exceeding $1,000 per package or box.
