Waste (including noils, yarn waste and garnetted stock), of man-made fibres

HS v2017 Code: 5505

About waste (including noils, yarn waste and garnetted stock), of man-made fibres

HS code 5505 covers the waste products generated during the manufacturing of man-made fibers, including noils, yarn waste, and garnetted stock. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader textile and apparel supply chain, as it provides a valuable source of raw materials for various downstream industries. The efficient management and utilization of these waste products contribute to the overall sustainability and circularity of the man-made fiber industry.

Production process

The production of waste materials under HS code 5505 typically involves the collection and processing of various byproducts generated during the spinning, weaving, and finishing stages of man-made fiber production. These waste materials are then sorted, cleaned, and sometimes mechanically or chemically treated to prepare them for reuse in other applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of waste materials under HS code 5505 include the man-made fibers themselves, such as polyester, nylon, acrylic, and rayon. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment for the collection, sorting, and processing of these waste materials. Energy, water, and various chemical treatments may also be necessary, depending on the specific processing methods employed.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by HS code 5505 are the various waste materials, including noils, yarn waste, and garnetted stock. These materials can be further processed and incorporated into a wide range of products, such as 5503 Synthetic staple fibres, not carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning, 5504 Artificial staple fibres, not carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning, and 5506 Synthetic staple fibres, carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning.
