About cotton yarn; (not sewing thread), single, of uncombed fibres, less than 85% by weight of cotton, measuring less than 125 decitex (exceeding 80 metric number), not for retail sale

HS code 520615 covers a specific type of cotton yarn that is widely used in the textile industry. This yarn is produced from uncombed cotton fibers, with a weight composition of less than 85% cotton, and a fineness of less than 125 decitex (exceeding 80 metric number). It is primarily used for industrial applications rather than for retail sale, making it an essential component in the global supply chain for various textile products.

Production process

The production of HS code 520615 cotton yarn involves several key steps. First, the raw cotton fibers are cleaned and prepared. They are then spun into yarn using specialized spinning machines. The yarn is then subjected to various finishing processes, such as winding, twisting, and heat treatment, to impart the desired properties and ensure consistent quality.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 520615 cotton yarn include raw cotton fibers, spinning machinery, and various chemicals and additives used in the finishing processes. The cotton fibers must meet specific quality standards in terms of length, strength, and purity. The spinning machines and associated equipment are highly specialized and require skilled operators to maintain optimal performance.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 520615 is the cotton yarn itself, which is then used as an input for a wide range of textile products. This yarn may be consumed by manufacturers of 520942 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing less than 85% by weight of cotton, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibres, weighing more than 200 g/m², 540752 Woven fabrics of yarn of man-made filaments, including woven fabrics obtained from materials of heading 54.04, and 550952 (Yarn (other than sewing thread) of synthetic staple fibres, not put up for retail sale).
