About fabrics; tufted textile fabrics, excluding products of heading no. 5703

HS code 580230 covers tufted textile fabrics, which are a type of fabric characterized by a raised, looped or piled surface. These fabrics are widely used in the production of carpets, rugs, upholstery, and other textile products. The tufted textile industry plays a significant role in the global textile and furnishing sectors, catering to both domestic and commercial applications.

Production process

The production of tufted textile fabrics typically involves a multi-step process. First, the base fabric, known as the primary backing, is prepared. This is usually a woven or non-woven material made from synthetic fibers like polypropylene or polyester. The tufting process then takes place, where yarn is mechanically inserted into the primary backing to create the tufted pattern. Finally, the fabric may undergo additional finishing steps, such as shearing, dyeing, or the application of a secondary backing, to enhance its durability and appearance.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of tufted textile fabrics include the primary backing material, tufting yarn, and various chemicals and dyes used in the finishing process. The primary backing is typically made from synthetic fibers, while the tufting yarn can be composed of natural fibers like wool or synthetic fibers like polyester or nylon. Specialized tufting machines and other textile manufacturing equipment are also essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

Tufted textile fabrics produced under HS code 580230 are primarily used in the manufacture of carpets, rugs, and upholstery. These fabrics may be further processed and consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, such as 570310 Carpets and other textile floor coverings, tufted, whether or not made up, 940142 Seats; upholstered, with wooden frames, and 940151 Seats; upholstered, with metal frames.
