Businesses face escalating measurement violation penalties

Beginning May 6, 2026, Utah's Department of Agriculture and Food applies escalating penalties for weights-and-measures violations. These apply to violations of the chapter, its rules, or its orders. The first violation gets a notice; the second may require payment of inspection costs. Later violations can bring fines plus inspection costs: third, up to $500; fourth, up to $1,000; fifth, up to $5,000. A sixth or later violation can bring up to $10,000 plus inspection costs. Penalties for third or later violations must be imposed at least 30 days apart. Collected penalties go to the General Fund as a dedicated credit for the department's enforcement work.

Menstrual product labels and business penalties

Utah requires ingredient disclosure for menstrual products, including tampons, pads, and menstrual cups. The labeling rule covers products made on or after December 1, 2027. Manufacturers must provide a clear, easy-to-see ingredient list on outside packaging, or use technology such as a QR code. Lists must show intentionally added ingredients by descending weight and their percentage of product weight. Ingredients below 1% can appear last in any order; confidential ingredients may use common names. After ingredient changes, manufacturers must update package labels within 18 months or technology-based lists within 6 months. Beginning May 6, 2026, Utah's Division of Consumer Protection enforces the chapter and can fine violations up to $2,500 each. Courts can also impose fines up to $2,500 per violation, order violations stopped, and grant other relief. Violating an agency or court order can bring penalties up to $5,000 per violation. When the division wins a judgment or an order stopping violations, courts must award its reasonable attorney, court, and investigation costs. Collected fines and penalties support the Consumer Protection Education and Training Fund.
