HS code 6104 covers a wide range of women's and girls' knitted or crocheted garments, including suits, ensembles, jackets, dresses, skirts, trousers, and more. This industry plays a significant role in the global textile and apparel trade, catering to the demand for comfortable, fashionable, and versatile clothing options for women and girls. As a key component of the broader 61 Apparel and clothing accessories, knitted or crocheted sector, the 6104 industry contributes to the economic growth and employment in many countries around the world.
Production process
The production of the garments covered under HS code 6104 typically involves a combination of knitting or crocheting techniques, along with cutting, sewing, and finishing processes. Knitting machines, both manual and automated, are used to create the basic fabric structures, which are then cut and sewn into the desired garment shapes. Crocheting, a manual technique, may also be employed for certain specialized or decorative elements. The finished garments often undergo additional finishing steps, such as pressing, trimming, and the addition of accessories, to enhance their appearance and quality.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the 6104 industry include natural and synthetic yarns, such as cotton, wool, polyester, and blends thereof. Knitting and sewing machines, as well as other specialized equipment like pressing machines and trimmings, are essential for the production process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce, including pattern designers, machine operators, and garment finishers, to ensure the quality and efficiency of the manufacturing process.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of the 6104 industry are a wide range of women's and girls' knitted or crocheted garments, including suits, ensembles, jackets, dresses, skirts, trousers, and more. These products are often consumed by the 62 Apparel and clothing accessories, not knitted or crocheted industry, as they may be used as components or complementary items in the production of complete outfits. Additionally, the 6104 industry's outputs may be distributed through various retail channels, such as clothing stores, online marketplaces, and specialty boutiques, to reach the end consumers.
