Illinois HB4702 mandates ingredient labeling on diaper packages sold in the state.
The Diaper Labeling Act requires that, within 12 months of the Act's effective date, all diaper packages sold in Illinois must include a printed list of ingredients in order of predominance. This list must be clearly visible on the package or box. The Act aims to protect adults, parents, and small children who may be allergic to chemicals in diapers. Violators face a civil penalty of 1% of their total annual in-State diaper sales, not exceeding $1,000 per package or box.
