About fabrics, woven; plain weave, unbleached or bleached, containing less than 85% by weight of polyester staple fibres, mixed mainly or solely with cotton, exceeding 170g/m2
HS code 551411 covers a specific type of woven fabric that is widely used in the textile and apparel industries. This fabric is characterized by its plain weave structure, unbleached or bleached appearance, and a composition of less than 85% polyester staple fibers mixed primarily with cotton. With a weight exceeding 170g/m2, this fabric finds applications in a range of products, from clothing to home furnishings, making it an important component of the global textile supply chain.
Production process
The production of fabrics under HS code 551411 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, including polyester staple fibers and cotton, are spun into yarns. These yarns are then woven together using a plain weave technique, which creates a simple, uniform pattern. The resulting fabric is then either left unbleached or undergoes a bleaching process to achieve a lighter, more uniform appearance.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 551411 include polyester staple fibers, cotton, and weaving machinery. The polyester and cotton fibers are the primary raw materials, while the weaving machinery, such as looms, is necessary to transform the yarns into the final woven fabric. Additionally, various chemicals and dyes may be used in the bleaching or finishing processes, depending on the desired characteristics of the final product.
Production outputs
Fabrics classified under HS code 551411 are primarily used in the production of clothing, such as shirts, dresses, and trousers. They may also be used in the manufacture of home textiles, such as curtains, upholstery, and bedding. These fabrics may be further processed or combined with other materials to create a wide range of textile products. Other HS codes that may consume the output of 551411 include 620520 Men's or boys' shirts, of cotton, 620630 Women's or girls' blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses, of cotton, and 630311 (Curtains (including drapes) and interior blinds; curtains (including drapes) and interior blinds, knitted or crocheted).
