About fabrics, woven; of synthetic staple fibres n.e.c. in chapter 55, mixed mainly or solely with fibres n.e.c. in heading no. 5515

HS code 551599 covers a diverse range of woven fabrics made from synthetic staple fibers, often blended with other natural or man-made fibers. These fabrics play a crucial role in the global textile and apparel industry, providing versatile and durable materials for a wide array of applications, from clothing and home furnishings to industrial uses. Understanding the production, inputs, and outputs of this industry is essential for businesses involved in import/export activities within the textile supply chain.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 551599 typically involves a multi-step weaving process. Synthetic staple fibers, such as polyester or nylon, are first spun into yarns, which are then woven together on specialized looms to create the desired fabric structure. Depending on the specific blend and desired properties, the fabrics may undergo additional finishing processes, such as dyeing, printing, or chemical treatments, to enhance their appearance, texture, or performance characteristics.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 551599 include synthetic staple fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic, as well as any other natural or man-made fibers that are blended with the synthetic fibers. Additionally, the industry relies on weaving machinery, dyes, and various chemical agents used in the finishing processes. The availability and quality of these raw materials and equipment are crucial for the industry's ability to meet the evolving demands of the global textile market.

Production outputs

Fabrics produced under HS code 551599 are primarily used in the manufacture 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 other HS codes, such as 540700 Woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, 580121 Woven pile fabrics and chenille fabrics, of man-made fibres, and 630231 Bed linen, of man-made fibres, among others. The versatility and durability of these fabrics make them an essential component in the global textile supply chain.
