Abstract

The Consumer Product Safety Commission ("CPSC," "Commission," or "we") is amending its standard for the flammability of mattresses and mattress pads to revise the ignition source specification in that standard.\1\ The ignition source cigarette specified for use in the mattress standard's performance tests is no longer produced. The Commission is requiring a standard reference material cigarette, which was developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, as the ignition source for testing to the mattress standard. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
