About fabrics, woven; containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, of yarns of different colours, 3-thread or 4-thread twill, including cross twill, weighing not more than 200g/m2

HS code 520843 covers a specific type of woven cotton fabric that is widely used in the textile and apparel industries. This fabric, characterized by its 3-thread or 4-thread twill weave and a weight of not more than 200g/m2, is valued for its durability, versatility, and aesthetic appeal. It plays a crucial role in the global textile supply chain, meeting the demands of manufacturers, designers, and consumers across various market segments.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 520843 involves a series of well-established textile manufacturing processes. The key steps include yarn spinning, weaving, and finishing. Yarn spinning techniques, such as ring spinning or open-end spinning, are used to create the cotton yarns of different colors. These yarns are then woven on specialized looms to create the desired 3-thread or 4-thread twill, including cross twill, fabric structure. Finally, the woven fabric undergoes various finishing processes, such as dyeing, printing, or chemical treatment, to enhance its properties and appearance.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 520843 include high-quality cotton fibers, dyes or pigments for coloration, and specialized weaving machinery. Cotton fibers, sourced from major cotton-producing regions around the world, are the primary raw material. Dyes and pigments, both natural and synthetic, are used to create the desired color variations in the yarns. Additionally, advanced weaving machines, such as shuttle looms or projectile looms, are necessary to achieve the precise 3-thread or 4-thread twill weave structure.

Production outputs

Fabrics classified under HS code 520843 are primarily used in the production of various textile and apparel products, such as shirts, dresses, trousers, and jackets. These fabrics may also find applications in the home textile industry, where they can be used for upholstery, curtains, or other interior furnishings. The output of this industry is often consumed by 610510 Men's or boys' shirts, knitted or crocheted, 620520 Men's or boys' shirts, of cotton, and 620640 Women's or girls' blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses, of cotton.
