Recently, upholstered furniture in the United States has been subject to strict regulations. Upholstered furniture produced and sold in the U.S. must comply with the 16 CFR 1640 regulation set by the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission). A GCC (General Certificate of Conformance) certificate, indicating that the product meets CPSC safety standards and the 16 CFR 1640 regulation, is required. Only products that meet CPSC standards and regulations and hold a valid gcc certificate are legally allowed to enter and be sold in the U.S. market.
