About cotton yarn; (not sewing thread), single, of uncombed fibres, less than 85% by weight of cotton, measuring 714.29 decitex or more (not exceeding 14 metric number), not for retail sale
HS code 520611 covers a specific type of cotton yarn that is used in a variety of textile and manufacturing applications. This yarn is produced from uncombed cotton fibers, with a weight composition of less than 85% cotton. It is a versatile material that finds use in the production of fabrics, clothing, and other textile-based products. As a key component in the global textile supply chain, the cotton yarn described by this code plays an important role in the broader economy.
Production process
The production of the cotton yarn covered by HS code 520611 involves several key steps. First, the raw cotton fibers are processed to remove any impurities or contaminants. The fibers are then combed to align and straighten them, improving the yarn's overall quality and consistency. Next, the fibers are spun into a continuous yarn, with the thickness and density controlled to meet the specifications of the 520611 code. Finally, the yarn may undergo additional processing, such as dyeing or finishing, before being packaged and distributed for use in various textile applications.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of the cotton yarn described by HS code 520611 include raw cotton fibers, spinning machinery, and various processing chemicals and equipment. The cotton fibers must be of a specific quality and composition to meet the requirements of the code. The spinning machinery, including spindles, rollers, and other components, is essential for transforming the raw fibers into the final yarn product. Additionally, various chemicals and finishing agents may be used to enhance the yarn's properties, such as its strength, color, or texture.
Production outputs
The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 520611 is the cotton yarn itself, which is then used as an input for a variety of other textile and manufacturing processes. This yarn may be consumed by industries producing 520912 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, weighing more than 200 g/m² or 610510 Men's or boys' shirts, knitted or crocheted, of cotton, among others. The specific end-use applications for this cotton yarn can vary widely, depending on the needs of the downstream industries and the final products being manufactured.
