About fabrics, woven; printed, containing less than 85% by weight of synthetic staple fibres (other than polyester, plain weave), mixed mainly or solely with cotton, not exceeding 170g/m2

HS code 551349 covers a specific category of woven fabrics that are printed and contain less than 85% synthetic staple fibers, primarily mixed with cotton. These fabrics play a crucial role in the textile and apparel industries, providing a versatile and cost-effective material for a wide range of clothing and home furnishing products. Understanding the characteristics and production processes of these fabrics is essential for businesses involved in the import, export, and manufacturing of textile-based goods.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 551349 typically involves a combination of weaving and printing techniques. The base fabric is first woven using a blend of synthetic and natural fibers, with the synthetic content being less than 85% by weight. The woven fabric is then subjected to a printing process, which applies various patterns and designs to the surface. This printing can be done using a range of methods, including screen printing, digital printing, or rotary printing, depending on the desired aesthetic and production requirements.

Production inputs

The key inputs for the production of fabrics under HS code 551349 include synthetic staple fibers (other than polyester), cotton fibers, and various dyes and chemicals used in the printing process. Specialized weaving and printing machinery, as well as skilled labor, are also essential for the efficient and high-quality production of these fabrics.

Production outputs

Fabrics classified under HS code 551349 are primarily used in the manufacture of clothing, such as shirts, dresses, and blouses, as well as home furnishings like curtains and upholstery.
