The Fair Packaging and Labeling Act is a US law that applies to labels on many consumer products. It requires the label to state:
the identity of the product;
the name and place of business of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor; and
the net quantity of contents.
The contents statement must include both metric and inch/pound units.
Passed under Lyndon Johnson in 1966.
