Artificial staple fibres, carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning

CPC v2.1 Code: 2622

About artificial staple fibres, carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning

cpc code 2622 covers the production of artificial staple fibres, which are an essential component in the textile industry. These fibres are created through various chemical and mechanical processes, and are widely used in the manufacture of a diverse range of fabrics, from clothing to home furnishings. The artificial staple fibre industry plays a crucial role in the global textile supply chain, providing a cost-effective and versatile alternative to natural fibres.

Production process

The production of artificial staple fibres under cpc code 2622 typically involves several key steps. First, synthetic polymers, such as polyester or nylon, are extruded into long, continuous filaments. These filaments are then cut into short, uniform lengths, known as staple fibres. The staple fibres are then carded, a process that aligns and separates the fibres, and may be further combed to remove any remaining impurities or shorter fibres. Finally, the processed staple fibres are ready for spinning into yarn, which can be woven or knitted into a wide variety of textile products.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of artificial staple fibres under cpc code 2622 include synthetic polymers, such as polyester or nylon, as well as specialized machinery for extrusion, cutting, carding, and combing. Additionally, energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are needed to power the production equipment, and water may be required for certain cleaning or processing steps.

Production outputs

The primary output of the artificial staple fibre industry under cpc code 2622 is, of course, the staple fibres themselves. These fibres are then consumed by 1711 Spinning of textile fibres and 1712 Weaving of textiles to produce a wide range of textile products, including clothing, home furnishings, and industrial textiles. The artificial staple fibres produced under this code may also be used in the manufacture of 2060 Manufacture of man-made fibres and 2221 Manufacture of plastic plates, sheets, tubes and profiles.
