About fabrics, woven; printed, containing less than 85% by weight of artificial staple fibres, mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair

HS code 551634 covers a specific type of woven fabric that is printed and contains less than 85% artificial staple fibers, with the remainder being primarily wool or fine animal hair. This fabric is an important component in the textile and apparel industries, providing a unique blend of natural and synthetic fibers that offers desirable properties such as durability, warmth, and aesthetic appeal. The production and trade of these fabrics play a significant role in the global textile supply chain, catering to the demands of fashion, home furnishings, and other textile-based industries.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 551634 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, including artificial staple fibers and wool or fine animal hair, are spun into yarns. These yarns are then woven into a fabric using specialized weaving machines. Once the fabric is produced, it undergoes a printing process, where designs or patterns are applied to the surface using various printing techniques, such as screen printing or digital printing. The printed fabric is then finished, which may include processes like dyeing, calendering, or other treatments to enhance its appearance and performance characteristics.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 551634 include artificial staple fibers, wool or fine animal hair, and various chemicals and dyes used in the printing and finishing processes. Additionally, specialized weaving and printing machinery, as well as skilled labor, are essential for the efficient and high-quality production of these fabrics.

Production outputs

Fabrics produced under HS code 551634 are primarily used in the manufacture of clothing, home textiles, and other textile-based products. These fabrics may be consumed by industries such as 6203 Men's or boys' suits, ensembles, jackets, blazers, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts, 6204 Women's or girls' suits, ensembles, jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts, and 6302 Bedlinen, table linen, toilet linen and kitchen linen, among others.
