This Draft Uganda Standard makes recommendations for direct marking on textile piece-goods of information that facilitates their correct invoicing and use subsequent to their manufacture. It also specifies alternative methods for designating the fibre content of textiles and textile products and for applying this information to made-up products, piece-goods and yarns. It also specifies the methods to be used for determining the fibre content of textiles and textile products.
