About fabrics, woven; containing less than 85% by weight of cotton, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibres, bleached, plain weave, weighing 200g/m2 or less

HS code 521021 covers a specific type of woven fabric that is widely used in the textile and apparel industries. This fabric is characterized by its composition, weave, and weight, making it a versatile material for a range of applications. As a key component in the global textile supply chain, the production and trade of these fabrics play an important role in the broader economy.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 521021 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, which include cotton and man-made fibers, are blended and spun into yarns. These yarns are then woven into a plain weave fabric using specialized weaving machinery. The fabric is then bleached to remove any natural coloration, resulting in a uniform, light-colored material.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 521021 include cotton and man-made fibers, such as polyester or rayon. Additionally, the production process requires weaving machinery, bleaching agents, and other supporting equipment and chemicals. The availability and cost of these raw materials and production resources can significantly impact the overall supply and pricing of these fabrics.

Production outputs

Fabrics classified under HS code 521021 are primarily used in the manufacture of a wide range of textile products, including clothing, home furnishings, and industrial textiles. These fabrics may be further processed or combined with other materials to create finished goods. Some of the related HS codes that may consume the output of this industry include 540741 Fabrics, woven, containing 85% or more by weight of filaments of nylon or other polyamides, 540751 Fabrics, woven, containing 85% or more by weight of textured polyester filaments, and 540752 Fabrics, woven, containing 85% or more by weight of non-textured polyester filaments.
