That's interesting. The model regulation for unit pricing states that if
the
product is sold on the basis of units ("100 sheets"), then the unit price
is
quantity 1. OTOH, if the product is sold on the basis of area, then the
unit
price needs to be related to area.

So the question is: what are the units on the package itself?

And of course, states are free to amend, modify or ignore the model
regulation.
