The regulation at 16 CFR Part 1632 prescribes requirements for testing prototype designs of mattresses and mattress pads to assess ignition resistance to smoldering cigarettes. The standard requires manufacturers to maintain records concerning the mattress or mattress pad prototype, testing results, and substitute materials. The regulation at 16 CFR Part 1633 establishes requirements to test mattress prototypes using a flaming ignition source (a pair of propane burners) that represents burning bedclothes. The standard requires manufacturers to maintain certain records to document compliance with the standard, including records concerning prototype testing, pooling, and confirmation testing, and quality assurance procedures and any associated testing for open-flame ignition sources.

There has been a decline in the number of firms and establishments producing mattresses in the US. Additionally, the number of respondents had been overestimated in previous submissions. Previously, the number of establishments was used as the estimate for the number of respondents, while the number of firms is used in this submission, reducing the estimated burden of the collection. A new estimate for the number of firms was identified during the Regulatory Flexibility Act Section 610 review of 16 CFR 1633.
