AHF Products Offers Guidance on Compliance with the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act
The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) has been in the news recently, specifically with how it pertains to flooring. The UFLPA’s primary purpose is to identify and stop products that are made with or contain components made with forced labor – primarily from the Uyghur region of China – from entering the U.S.
“First and foremost, AHF Products does not condone any form of forced labor. We were disheartened to hear of the Uyghur forced labor camps in China and that certain flooring materials were reported to be connected to the Uyghur region,” said Jennifer Zimmerman, Chief Commercial Officer, AHF Products. “One way to ensure compliance with the UFLPA is to buy from U.S. manufacturers who only source from within the U.S. or who have well-vetted foreign supply chains. AHF Products is one of those manufacturers.”
