Yarn; of flax, single

HS code 530610 covers the classification of single yarn made from flax. Flax is a natural fiber derived from the flax plant, which has been used for centuries in the production of textiles, including linen. The flax yarn industry plays a crucial role in the global textile supply chain, providing a versatile and durable raw material for a wide range of applications, from apparel to home furnishings.

The production of flax yarn typically involves several key steps. First, the flax fibers are harvested and processed to remove the woody parts of the plant. The fibers are then spun into yarn using specialized machinery, such as spinning frames or rotor spinning systems. The resulting yarn can be further processed, such as by dyeing or finishing, to meet the specific requirements of the end-use application.

The primary input for the production of HS code 530610 yarn is, of course, flax fibers. Flax is typically grown in temperate climates and requires specific soil and environmental conditions to thrive. In addition to the raw flax material, the industry also relies on various machinery and equipment, such as spinning frames, winding machines, and finishing equipment, as well as energy sources and other supporting resources.

The primary output of HS code 530610 is single flax yarn, which can be used in a variety of textile applications. This yarn may be consumed by 520100 Cotton or 540700 Woven fabrics of man-made filament yarn industries, where it can be woven or knitted into fabrics for clothing, home textiles, or industrial uses. The flax yarn produced under this code may also be used in the production of 530710 Yarn of jute or of other textile bast fibers or 530720 Yarn of other vegetable textile fibers; paper yarn.
