About coconut, abaca (manila hemp or musa textilis nee), ramie and other vegetable textile fibres n.e.c., raw or processed but not spun; tow, noils and waste of these fibres (including yarn waste and garnetted stock)

HS code 5305 covers a diverse range of raw and processed vegetable textile fibres, including coconut, abaca (Manila hemp), ramie, and other fibres not elsewhere classified. These fibres are essential raw materials for various textile and industrial applications, contributing to the global supply chain and economic activities across multiple sectors.

Production process

The production of the fibres covered under HS code 5305 typically involves harvesting, cleaning, and processing the raw materials. Depending on the specific fibre, techniques such as retting, decortication, and mechanical or chemical extraction may be employed to separate the fibres from the plant material. The processed fibres may then undergo further treatments, such as bleaching, dyeing, or blending, to meet the requirements of end-users.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the fibres under HS code 5305 include the raw plant materials, such as coconut husks, abaca plants, and ramie stems. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment for harvesting, processing, and refining the fibres are essential. Labour, energy, and water resources are also significant inputs in the production process.

Production outputs

The fibres produced under HS code 5305 are used as raw materials for a wide range of textile and industrial applications. These fibres may be consumed by manufacturers of 5607 Twine, cordage, ropes and cables and articles thereof, 5608 Knotted netting of twine, cordage or rope; made-up fishing nets and other made-up nets, of textile materials, and 5609 Articles of yarn, strip or the like of heading 5404 or 5405, twine, cordage, rope or cables, not elsewhere specified or included, among others. The waste and by-products generated during the production process may also have further industrial uses.
