About fabrics, woven; of polyester staple fibres n.e.c. in chapter 55, mixed mainly or solely with fibres n.e.c. in item no. 5515.1

HS code 551519 covers a broad range of woven fabrics made primarily from polyester staple fibers, often blended with other synthetic or natural fibers. These versatile fabrics are widely used in the textile and apparel industries, contributing to the global supply chain and economic activity. Their applications span from clothing and home furnishings to industrial textiles, making them an essential component of various consumer and commercial products.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 551519 typically involves a multi-step process. It begins with the spinning of polyester staple fibers, which are then blended with other fibers as required. The blended fibers are then woven into a fabric using advanced weaving techniques, such as shuttle looms or shuttleless looms. The woven fabric may undergo additional finishing processes, such as dyeing, printing, or chemical treatment, to impart desired properties and meet specific end-use requirements.

Production inputs

The main inputs for the production of fabrics under HS code 551519 include polyester staple fibers, which serve as the primary raw material. Other natural or synthetic fibers, such as 5201 Cotton, 5503 Synthetic staple fibres, or 5504 Artificial staple fibres, may be blended with the polyester fibers to create unique fabric characteristics. Additionally, the production process requires weaving machinery, dyes, and various chemical auxiliaries for finishing and treatment.

Production outputs

Fabrics classified under HS code 551519 are primarily used in the manufacturing of a wide range of textile products, including clothing, home textiles, and industrial applications. These fabrics may be further processed and consumed by industries covered under codes such as 6004 Knitted or crocheted fabrics, n.e.s., of a width exceeding 30 cm, containing by weight 5% or more of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread, 6005 (Warp knit fabrics (including those made on galloon knitting machines), other than those of heading 60.01 to 60.04), and 6006 Other knitted or crocheted fabrics.
