Yarn of man-made filaments, multiple or cabled (other than sewing thread, high tenacity yarn of polyamides, polyesters or viscose rayon), not put up for retail sale

cpc code 26421 covers the production of yarn made from man-made filaments, excluding sewing thread and high-tenacity yarns of polyamides, polyesters, or viscose rayon. This industry plays a crucial role in the textile and apparel supply chain, providing essential raw materials for the manufacturing of a wide range of fabric products. The demand for these yarns is driven by the global textile industry, which is closely tied to consumer trends and the broader economic conditions.

The production of yarn covered under cpc code 26421 typically involves several key steps. First, man-made filaments, such as those made from polyester or nylon, are extruded and drawn to the desired thickness. These individual filaments are then twisted together, either in a single or multiple-ply configuration, to create the final yarn product. The twisting process helps to improve the yarn's strength, durability, and overall quality. Depending on the specific application, the yarns may undergo additional processing, such as dyeing or finishing, before being sold to textile manufacturers.

The main inputs required for the production of yarn under cpc code 26421 include man-made filaments, such as polyester, nylon, or rayon. These raw materials are typically sourced from petrochemical or cellulosic fiber producers. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery, such as extruders, twisting machines, and winding equipment, to transform the raw materials into the final yarn product. Energy, water, and skilled labor are also important inputs for this industry.

The primary output of the industry covered by cpc code 26421 is yarn made from man-made filaments, which is then consumed by the textile and apparel manufacturing industries. These yarns may be used in the production of a wide range of fabric products, including clothing, home textiles, and industrial textiles. Other industries that may consume the output of this industry include 26422 (Yarn of man-made filaments (other than sewing thread), put up for retail sale), 26430 Yarn of man-made staple fibres, not put up for retail sale, and 26440 Yarn of man-made staple fibres, put up for retail sale.
