Nonwovens; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated, not of man-made filaments, (weighing more than 70g/m2 but not more than 150g/m2)

HS v2017 Code: 560393

About nonwovens; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated, not of man-made filaments, (weighing more than 70g/m2 but not more than 150g/m2)

HS code 560393 covers a broad range of nonwoven fabrics that are not made from man-made filaments. These materials play a crucial role in various industries, from textiles and apparel to automotive and construction. Their versatility and durability make them an essential component in the global supply chain, contributing to the overall economic growth and development.

Production process

Nonwovens under HS code 560393 are typically produced using a combination of mechanical, thermal, and/or chemical bonding techniques. The manufacturing process often involves the layering and entanglement of natural or synthetic fibers, which are then bonded together to create a cohesive fabric. This process can be tailored to achieve specific properties, such as increased strength, absorbency, or filtration capabilities.

Production inputs

The production of nonwovens under HS code 560393 requires a variety of raw materials, including natural fibers (such as cotton, wool, or cellulose) and synthetic fibers (such as polyester, polypropylene, or nylon). Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery, such as carding machines, needlepunch machines, and thermal bonding equipment, to facilitate the manufacturing process. Other key inputs may include binders, coatings, and various chemical additives used to enhance the fabric's performance.

Production outputs

Nonwovens produced under HS code 560393 have a wide range of applications, including 560311 Nonwovens; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated, of man-made filaments, weighing not more than 25 g/m2, 560312 Nonwovens; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated, of man-made filaments, weighing more than 25 g/m2 but not more than 70 g/m2, and 560410 Textile fabrics; impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics, other than those of heading 5902. These materials are commonly used in the production of personal protective equipment, filtration systems, insulation, and a variety of other industrial and consumer products.
