Welcome to the Canada Care
Labeling section of the Apparel Search Website.
"Since care labelling of textile is a voluntary program in
Canada, the Competition Bureau leaves the decision to businesses
if and when they want to adopt the new standard, published in
December 2003 by the Canadian General Standards Board (CGSB).
The standard is harmonized with the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) care symbols and the symbols in the
International Organization for Standardization (ISO) (both not
yet finalized)."
