HS v2017 Code: 6001
About fabrics; pile fabrics, including long pile fabrics and terry fabrics, knitted or crocheted
HS code 6001 covers a diverse range of knitted or crocheted fabrics, including pile fabrics, long pile fabrics, and terry fabrics. These materials are widely used in the textile and apparel industries, finding applications in clothing, home furnishings, and industrial products. As a key component of global trade, the production and export of these fabrics play a significant role in the broader economy.
Production process
The production of fabrics under HS code 6001 typically involves knitting or crocheting techniques. Pile fabrics are created by incorporating additional yarn loops or tufts onto the base fabric, while long pile fabrics feature even longer loops. Terry fabrics are characterized by their absorbent, looped surface, often used in towels and bathrobes. These specialized manufacturing processes allow for the creation of a wide range of textures, weights, and properties to meet the diverse needs of end-users.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of HS code 6001 fabrics include natural and synthetic fibers, such as cotton, wool, polyester, and acrylic. Specialized knitting or crocheting machinery, as well as dyeing and finishing equipment, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce capable of operating the machinery and implementing quality control measures.
Production outputs
The fabrics produced under HS code 6001 are primarily used in the manufacture of clothing, home textiles, and industrial products. These materials may be further processed and incorporated into 6002 Knitted or crocheted fabrics, 6003 Knitted or crocheted fabrics, narrow, 6004 Knitted or crocheted fabrics, wide, and 6005 (Warp knit fabrics (including those made on galloon knitting machines)), among other related HS codes, depending on their specific characteristics and end-use applications.
