Questions referred

Is Article 7(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011 (1) to be interpreted as meaning that it is mandatory to clarify that the product is a pure textile product exclusively composed of the same fibre?

2.

Is use of one of the three terms mentioned in Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011, namely ‘100 %’, ‘pure’ or ‘all’, mandatory or is this merely an option, and not an obligation, for such products?

3.

Does the obligation under Article 9(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011 to label a textile product or to mark it with the name and percentage by weight of all constituent fibres also apply to pure textile products coming under Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011?
