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

HS code 520645 covers a specific type of cotton yarn that is widely used in the textile industry. This yarn is produced from combed cotton fibers, with a weight composition of less than 85% cotton, and a fineness of less than 125 decitex (exceeding 80 metric number) per single yarn. It is primarily used in the manufacturing of various textile products, including clothing, home furnishings, and industrial applications, making it an important component of the global textile supply chain.

Production process

The production of cotton yarn covered under HS code 520645 involves several key steps. First, the cotton fibers are combed to align and remove any impurities, ensuring a high-quality raw material. 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 enhances the yarn's strength, durability, and overall quality, making it suitable for a wide range of textile applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 520645 cotton yarn include high-quality combed cotton fibers, spinning machinery, and various auxiliary materials such as lubricants and sizing agents. The spinning equipment used in this industry typically includes machines like ring spinners, open-end spinners, and air-jet spinners, which are capable of producing the desired yarn specifications. Additionally, the production process may require access to a reliable supply of energy, water, and other supporting infrastructure to ensure efficient and sustainable manufacturing.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 520645 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 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, 520952 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing less than 85% by weight of cotton, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibres, weighing not more than 200 g/m², and other related textile categories, ultimately contributing to the broader textile and apparel supply chain.
