About woven fabrics of silk or of silk waste

cpc code 2651 covers the production of woven fabrics made from silk or silk waste. The silk industry is a vital component of the global textile and apparel supply chain, providing high-quality, luxurious fabrics for a wide range of applications. As a natural, renewable, and biodegradable fiber, silk is highly sought after for its unique luster, softness, and durability, making it a popular choice for high-end fashion, home furnishings, and industrial applications.

Production process

The production of woven silk fabrics typically involves a multi-step process. First, silk fibers are harvested from silkworm cocoons and then spun into yarn. The yarn is then woven into a fabric using specialized looms, which can create a variety of weave patterns and textures. Finishing processes, such as dyeing, printing, and treatments, are often applied to the woven fabric to enhance its appearance, performance, and durability.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of woven silk fabrics include raw silk fibers, which are typically sourced from silkworm farms or silk reeling operations. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized weaving machinery, such as looms and shuttles, as well as various chemicals and dyes used in the finishing processes. Energy, water, and skilled labor are also essential inputs for this industry.
