About cotton yarn; (not sewing thread), multiple or cabled, of uncombed fibres, less than 85% by weight of cotton, 714.29 decitex or more (not exceeding 14 metric number) per single yarn, not for retail sale

HS code 520631 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. It is a multiple or cabled yarn, meaning it is composed of two or more single yarns twisted together. This type of yarn is primarily used in the manufacture of various textile products, such as fabrics, garments, and home furnishings, playing a crucial role in the global textile supply chain.

Production process

The production of the cotton yarn covered by HS code 520631 typically involves several key steps. First, the cotton fibers are cleaned, carded, and combed to align and remove any impurities. The fibers are then spun into single yarns, which are then twisted together to form the multiple or cabled yarn. This process helps to improve the yarn's strength, durability, and overall quality. The final step involves winding and packaging the yarn for distribution and further processing by textile manufacturers.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the cotton yarn covered by HS code 520631 include raw cotton fibers, spinning machinery, and various auxiliary materials such as lubricants and sizing agents. The quality and characteristics of the raw cotton fibers, as well as the efficiency of the spinning equipment, are critical factors in determining the final properties of the yarn. Additionally, the availability of skilled labor and access to reliable energy sources are important considerations in the production process.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 520631 is the cotton yarn itself, which is then used as an input for the production of a wide range of textile products. This yarn may be further processed, dyed, or woven into fabrics that are then used in the manufacture of clothing, home textiles, and industrial applications. Other related HS codes that may consume the output of this industry include 520512 (Cotton yarn, containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, not put up for retail sale, measuring 714.29 decitex or more (not exceeding 14 metric number)) and 520522 (Cotton yarn, containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, not put up for retail sale, measuring less than 714.29 decitex but not less than 232.56 decitex (exceeding 14 metric number but not exceeding 43 metric number)).
