Miscellaneous textile wastes

CPC v2.1 Code: 3921

About miscellaneous textile wastes

cpc code 3921 covers a diverse range of textile waste materials, which play a crucial role in the broader textile and apparel industry. These wastes, generated during various stages of textile production and consumption, represent an important secondary resource that can be repurposed and recycled, contributing to the circular economy and sustainable practices within the industry.

Production process

The processing of miscellaneous textile wastes typically involves a combination of sorting, cleaning, and preparation techniques. Waste materials are first sorted by fiber type, color, and level of contamination. They are then cleaned to remove any impurities or foreign matter, often using mechanical or chemical methods. Finally, the cleaned and sorted textile wastes are prepared for further processing, which may include shredding, baling, or other methods to optimize their use in downstream applications.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the processing of cpc code 3921 textile wastes include the waste materials themselves, which can come from a variety of sources, such as 5111 Wool, not carded or combed, 5112 Wool, carded or combed, 5113 Fine or coarse animal hair, not carded or combed, and 5114 (Yarn waste (including thread waste)). Additionally, the industry may require specialized equipment for sorting, cleaning, and preparing the waste materials, as well as energy and water resources to support the production processes.

Production outputs

The main outputs of cpc code 3921 are the processed and cleaned textile waste materials, which can be used as inputs for a range of other industries. These may include 5201 Cotton, not carded or combed, 5202 Cotton, carded or combed, 5203 (Cotton waste (including pulled or garnetted rags)), and 5301 Silk, not carded or combed, among others. The recycled and repurposed textile wastes can be used in the production of new textile products, insulation materials, or as feedstock for other industrial processes.
