3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
filling materials
collective term for natural fibres, chemical fibres, and their blends used for filling and padding
3.2
products with filling materials
products that use filling materials and their processed forms such as batting and felt pads as filling or padding materials
Note: Products with filling materials are classified into daily use products with filling materials and non-daily use products with filling materials.
3.3
daily use products with filling materials
filling materials that are in close contact with the human body in daily life
Note: Daily use products with filling materials mainly include apparel and footwear items such as winter coat, down garments, cotton clothing, cotton shoes, and cotton hats; bedding items such as quilts, mattresses, pillows, and cushions; upholstered furniture such as mattresses, sofa, and seating or reclining pads; toys such as plush toys.
3.4
non-daily use products with filling materials
products with filling materials excluding those for daily use
Note: Non-daily use products with filling materials mainly include building insulation materials, agricultural insulation materials, transportation packaging materials, decorative materials, building acoustic insulation materials, etc.
3.5
textile waste for medical purpose
fibre products eliminated or discarded by medical and health institutions
Note: Textile waste for medical purpose primarily includes eliminated or discarded medical dressings such as degreasing cotton and degreasing gauze, clothing of medical staff and patients, filling materials, and other fibre products.
3.6
foreign matter
collective term for products without filling materials mixed into filling materials
3.7
fibre waste
single or bundled fibres that fall off, are removed, or become detached during the production and processing of fibres or fibre products
3.8
fibre products waste
edges and trimmings of fibre products other than fibre waste generated during the processing and production of fibre products, such as thread ends and fabric scraps, batting, and felt pads
3.9
unused fibre products waste
waste materials generated during the production and processing of fibres and their products (such as spinning, yarn spinning, weaving, printing and dyeing, and cutting), as well as clothing, household fibre products, industrial fibre products, and other fibre products that are eliminated or discarded without being used
Note: Waste materials include fibre waste and fibre products waste.
3.10
used fibre products waste
fibre products that are eliminated or discarded after being used
Note: Used fibre products waste includes clothing, household fibre products, industrial fibre products, and other fibre products that are eliminated or discarded after being used.
3.11
mechanically recycled fibre
fibre produced by processing fibre products, fibre waste, or fibre products waste as raw materials by physical and mechanical methods
Note: Physical and mechanical processes involve the use of mechanical methods to cut, tear, and release fibre products waste, fibre products and their wastes to obtain fibre.
