About synthetic filament yarn (other than sewing thread), not put up for retail sale, including synthetic monofilament of less than 67 decitex

HS code 5402 covers a wide range of synthetic filament yarns, excluding sewing thread, that are not packaged for retail sale. This industry plays a crucial role in the global textile and apparel supply chain, providing essential raw materials for the production of a variety of fabrics, from clothing to industrial textiles. The demand for these synthetic filaments is driven by their versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness compared to natural fibers, making them an integral part of the modern textile industry.

Production process

The production of synthetic filament yarn under HS code 5402 typically involves a process called extrusion. In this method, synthetic polymers, such as polyester or nylon, are melted and forced through tiny holes in a spinneret, forming continuous filaments. These filaments are then drawn, twisted, and wound onto bobbins or packages, ready for further processing or weaving into fabrics.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of synthetic filament yarn under HS code 5402 include synthetic polymers, such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic, as well as specialized machinery like extruders, spinnerets, and winding equipment. Additionally, energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are necessary to power the production process.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 5402 is synthetic filament yarn, which is then used as a raw material in the production of a wide range of textile products. These yarns may be further processed, such as by twisting or texturizing, before being woven or knitted into fabrics. The output of this industry is often consumed by manufacturers of 5407 Woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn and 5408 Woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn.
