Bill > HB0442

This bill, titled the Feminine Hygiene Products Amendments, mandates that manufacturers of menstrual products, such as tampons, sanitary napkins, and menstrual cups, must clearly list all intentionally added ingredients on the product's packaging starting December 1, 2027. The ingredients should be listed in order of predominance by weight, with exceptions for ingredients making up less than 1% of the product, which can be listed in any order. Manufacturers can use technology, like a website link, to provide this information, but they are not required to disclose confidential business information, such as trade secrets, on the packaging or website, though they can list such ingredients by their common name. The Division of Consumer Protection (the "division" is a state agency responsible for protecting consumers from unfair or deceptive business practices) will administer and enforce these new labeling requirements, with the power to impose administrative fines of up to $2,500 per violation and pursue court actions for further enforcement, including injunctions and civil penalties of up to $5,000 per violation. This bill also makes technical amendments to existing law regarding the Division of Consumer Protection's responsibilities, adding Chapter 82, Feminine Hygiene Products, to its purview, with most provisions taking effect on May 6, 2026, and specific changes to Section 13-2-1 taking effect on July 1, 2026.
