About fabrics, woven; unbleached or bleached, containing less than 85% by weight of artificial staple fibres, mixed mainly or solely with manmade filaments

HS code 551621 covers a specific type of woven fabric that is unbleached or bleached, containing less than 85% by weight of artificial staple fibers, and mixed mainly or solely with man-made filaments. This fabric is an essential component in the textile and apparel industries, providing a versatile and durable material for a wide range of applications, from clothing to home furnishings. As a key input for various downstream industries, the production and trade of this fabric plays a significant role in the global economy.

Production process

The production of fabrics covered under HS code 551621 typically involves weaving techniques. The process begins with the preparation of the yarn, which may involve spinning, twisting, and other pre-weaving processes. The warp and weft yarns are then interlaced on a loom to create the woven fabric. Depending on the desired characteristics, the fabric may undergo additional finishing processes, such as bleaching, dyeing, or printing, to achieve the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 551621 include artificial staple fibers, man-made filaments, and various chemicals and dyes used in the finishing processes. Additionally, specialized weaving machinery, such as looms, and other supporting equipment are essential for the manufacturing of these fabrics.

Production outputs

Fabrics classified under HS code 551621 are primarily used as inputs for the production of a wide range of textile and apparel products. These fabrics may be further processed and incorporated into garments, home textiles, and other textile-based goods. Some of the related HS codes that may consume the output of this industry include 620520 Men's or boys' shirts, of cotton, 630231 Bed linen, of cotton, and 630260 Toilet linen and kitchen linen, of terry towelling or similar terry fabrics, of cotton.
