Private Label and other Regulations with Marci Kinter

* Describe your role with SGIA and what types of things you have been involved with and how that helps the SGIA members out there.

* What does a garment printer need to know before starting to private label garments?

* If someone is found to not be in compliance with these regulations, what kind of penalty might be expected?

* Can you also tell our listeners what they should be aware of when it comes to some of the new requirements around inks?

* What items need to be CPSIA compliant. Also tell us who specifically is responsible for being compliant.

* What do decorators do that are working with overseas vendors who don’t have CPSIA compliance? Do they need to avoid those vendors?
