the flock

The Rag Flock Acts, 1911 and 1928, distinguished the two different types of flock; " Flock manufactured from rags mean unused flock which has been produced wholly or partly by tearing up woven or knitted or felted materials whether old or new, but does not include unused flock obtained wholly in the processes of the scouring and finishing of newly woven, knitted, or felted fabrics." The following descriptions should be applied to flock made from previously used materials which have been properly washed: - Washed Woollen Flock - Rag flock, as defined in paragraph above which has a wool content of 70 per cent or greater. Washed Flock - Rag flock, as defined in paragraph above, which has a wool content of less than 76 per cent. The following descriptions should be applied to flock derived from the scouring and finishing of newly woven, etc., fabrics: - Woollen Flock - Flock (other than rag flock) as defined in paragraph above, with a wool content of 70 per cent or greater. New Fabric Flock - Flock (other than rag flock) as defined in paragraph above, with a wool content of less than 70 per cent. Cotton Flock - Flock manufactured from unused raw cotton, unused raw cotton waste, or from unused waste produced in the finishing processes in the manufacture of cotton cloth. (Manufacturer's tolerance, 5 per cent). R.T.S.A. Standard.
