CPC v2.1 Code: 2636

About cotton yarn (other than sewing thread), containing 85% or more by weight of cotton

cpc code 2636 covers the production of cotton yarn, excluding sewing thread, that contains 85% or more cotton by weight. This industry plays a crucial role in the global textile supply chain, providing a vital raw material for the manufacture of a wide range of cotton-based products, from clothing and home textiles to industrial applications. As a key component of many countries' export economies, the cotton yarn industry is an important contributor to international trade and economic development.

Production process

The production of cotton yarn under cpc code 2636 typically involves a series of processes, including fiber preparation, spinning, and finishing. Cotton fibers are first cleaned, carded, and combed to align and remove impurities. The prepared fibers are then spun into continuous yarn using techniques such as ring spinning, open-end spinning, or air-jet spinning. Finally, the yarn may undergo various finishing processes, such as bleaching, dyeing, or mercerization, to enhance its properties and appearance.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of cotton yarn under cpc code 2636 include raw cotton fiber, as well as various machinery and equipment for fiber preparation, spinning, and finishing. Cotton fibers are the primary raw material, and their quality, length, and strength are crucial factors in determining the final yarn properties. Additionally, the industry relies on energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, to power the production equipment, as well as chemicals and dyes for finishing processes.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by cpc code 2636 is cotton yarn, which is then consumed by a variety of downstream industries. This yarn is used in the production of 2641 Woven fabrics of cotton, 2642 Knitted or crocheted fabrics, and 2643 Made-up textile articles, among others. The cotton yarn industry also supplies inputs to the 2635 Synthetic staple fibers, 2637 Yarn of man-made staple fibers, and 2638 Woven fabrics of man-made staple fibers industries.
