About fabrics; knitted or crocheted fabrics, other than those of headings 60.01 to 60.04
HS code 6006 covers a wide range of knitted or crocheted fabrics, excluding those classified under headings 60.01 to 60.04. These fabrics are essential components in the textile and apparel industries, serving as the foundation for a diverse array of products. They are utilized in the manufacturing of clothing, home furnishings, and industrial applications, making them a crucial part of the global economy.
Production process
The production of fabrics under HS code 6006 typically involves knitting or crocheting techniques. Knitting involves the interlocking of yarn loops to create a continuous fabric, while crocheting uses a single hook to loop yarn into a series of stitches. These processes can be carried out using various types of machinery, ranging from manual knitting needles to high-speed, automated knitting machines. The choice of production method often depends on the desired fabric characteristics, such as texture, elasticity, and pattern.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of HS code 6006 fabrics include natural and synthetic yarns, such as cotton, wool, polyester, and nylon. Additionally, specialized machinery, including knitting machines, crocheting hooks, and finishing equipment, are essential for the manufacturing process. Dyes, chemicals, and other auxiliary materials may also be required to achieve specific fabric properties or finishes.
Production outputs
The fabrics produced under HS code 6006 are used in a wide range of applications, including the manufacture of clothing, such as 6104 (Women's or girls' suits, ensembles, jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear)) and 6105 Men's or boys' shirts, as well as home furnishings, such as 6301 Blankets and traveling rugs.
