§ 250.8 - Deception as to being “new”.

(a) Industry members should not make any direct or indirect representation that an industry product is new unless such product has not been used and is composed entirely of unused materials and parts.

(b) In connection with the sale of furniture which has the appearance of being new but which contains used materials or parts, such as springs, latex foam rubber stuffing, or hardware, members of the industry should conspicuously disclose, in a manner provided for in § 250.1 of this part, such fact (e.g., “cushions made from reused shredded latex foam rubber”).
