About wadding; other articles thereof, of man-made fibres

HS code 560122 covers a range of products made from man-made fibers, including wadding and other articles. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader textile and manufacturing sectors, providing essential materials and components used in a wide variety of applications. From personal care products to industrial applications, the items classified under this code are integral to many aspects of the global economy.

Production process

The production of articles under HS code 560122 typically involves a range of techniques, including carding, web formation, and bonding. Carding is used to align and clean the man-made fibers, while web formation creates a uniform, lightweight material. Bonding techniques, such as thermal or chemical bonding, are then used to hold the fibers together and provide the desired properties for the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of articles under HS code 560122 include man-made fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or rayon. Specialized machinery, such as carding machines and web-forming equipment, is also essential. Additionally, various chemicals and binders may be used in the bonding process to impart specific characteristics to the final products.

Production outputs

The outputs of the industry covered by HS code 560122 include a diverse range of products, such as wadding, filters, insulation materials, and personal care items. These outputs are often consumed by other industries, such as 560121 Wadding of textile materials and articles thereof, 560129 Wadding; other articles thereof, of other textile materials, and 392010 Plates, sheets, film, foil and strip, of plastics, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials.
