One subsection, quoted.

Not the origin of anything

Where any article was made is a fact about a supply chain and this property establishes none of it.

Not what subsection (b) requires

The container provisions are cross-referred in the parenthesis and are not described here, which is a real limit on how far this property goes.

Not how the exceptions are administered

Clause (A) permits the Secretary of the Treasury to authorize an exception where an article is incapable of being marked. The process is not described.

Nor the other exceptions

Subsection (a)(3) has further clauses and only (A) was obtained verbatim. The rest are not enumerated.

Not Made in USA claims

Which are voluntary and a different scheme, covered in the favors and gifts property.

Not content limits

A solder pellet contains lead and whether any limit reaches it depends on whether the part is a children's product, which is not determined here.

Not UL or any other listing

Which is not federal and is what an installer actually looks for on an electrical part.

And not the electrical function of anything

A wire nut's wire range and a fuse's rating are performance facts and a container catalog has nothing to say about them.

What is here is the marking route

Three tiers, a proportional standard, and the fact that the statute names the container as an authorized place for the mark.

Plus the material mix, measured

117 PET, 78 polypropylene and 56 glass, which is the surface the mark has to hold to.

And one honest absence

We publish no marking, printing or decorating service, so the container is all we supply.

Which is the division worth stating

The statute authorizes the container as the place for the mark, and we sell the container without the mark.

The rest belongs with a customs broker

Particularly the origin determination and the container subsection.

References

19 U.S.C. 1304(a). Every article of foreign origin "(or its container, as provided in subsection (b)" must be marked "as legibly, indelibly, and permanently as the nature of the article (or container) will permit", and the marking must "indicate to an ultimate purchaser in the United States the English name of the country of origin of the article." Among the exceptions in subsection (a)(3), clause (A) permits the Secretary of the Treasury to "Authorize the exception of any article from the requirements of marking if such article is incapable of being marked." This is customs marking for articles of foreign origin; nothing on these pages determines the origin of anything or how the exceptions are administered. law.cornell.edu

The Davis Pack Supply catalog, measured 19 October 2026. The 251 containers on this shelf are 117 PET, 78 polypropylene and 56 glass. There is no metal and no polyethylene. Glass takes an etched or fired mark and loses an adhesive label to oil; PET and polypropylene take an adhesive label well and take an etch not at all. We publish no marking, printing or decorating service of any kind.

Written from 19 U.S.C. 1304 and from the catalog as it stood on 19 October 2026. That section is customs marking for articles of foreign origin and nothing here determines the origin of anything, what subsection (b) requires of containers, or how the exceptions are administered. Made in USA claims are a different scheme covered in the favors and gifts property. We publish no marking, printing or decorating service: the mark goes on by some process we do not supply. This shelf is shared identically by nine groups and the sewing notions property enumerates the inventory.
