About cotton yarn; (not sewing thread), multiple or cabled, of combed fibres, 85% or more by weight of cotton, 192.30 to 125 decitex (53 to 80 metric number) per single yarn, not for retail sale

HS code 520544 covers a specific type of cotton yarn that is widely used in the textile industry. This yarn is characterized by its high cotton content, combed fibers, and a particular range of linear density. It is an essential input for the production of a variety of textile products, including clothing, home furnishings, and industrial textiles. The demand for this type of cotton yarn is driven by the global apparel and textile manufacturing sectors, making it a crucial component of international trade and the broader economy.

Production process

The production of the cotton yarn covered by HS code 520544 involves several key steps. First, high-quality cotton fibers are selected and combed to align the fibers and remove any impurities. The combed fibers are then spun into single yarns, which are subsequently twisted or cabled together to create the final multiple or cabled yarn product. This process ensures the yarn's strength, uniformity, and suitability for a range of textile applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 520544 cotton yarn include high-quality cotton fibers, spinning machinery, and various auxiliary materials such as lubricants and sizing agents. The cotton fibers must meet specific requirements in terms of length, strength, and fineness to ensure the desired characteristics of the final yarn product. Additionally, the spinning equipment, including machines for combing, twisting, and cabling, must be well-maintained and operated by skilled technicians to achieve the necessary yarn specifications.

Production outputs

The cotton yarn covered by HS code 520544 is a versatile output that can be used in the production of a wide range of textile products. It is commonly used in the manufacture of woven and knitted fabrics, as well as in the production of 520512 (Cotton yarn; containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, not put up for retail sale, single yarn, of uncombed fibres, 714.29 decitex or more (less than 14 metric number)) and 520522 (Cotton yarn; containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, not put up for retail sale, single yarn, of combed fibres, 714.29 decitex or more (less than 14 metric number)) yarns, which are also important inputs for the textile industry.
