Dyes; reactive dyes and preparations based thereon

HS v2022 Code: 320416

About dyes; reactive dyes and preparations based thereon

HS code 320416 covers reactive dyes and preparations based on these dyes. Reactive dyes are a crucial component in the textile industry, enabling the coloration of fabrics through a chemical reaction that binds the dye to the fabric fibers. This industry plays a vital role in the global textile supply chain, providing the necessary colorants that allow for the production of a wide range of textile products, from clothing to home furnishings.

Production process

The production of reactive dyes and preparations involves several key steps. First, the raw materials, such as organic compounds and chemical reagents, are carefully selected and combined through a series of chemical reactions. These reactions result in the formation of the reactive dye molecules, which are then purified and formulated into various preparations, such as powders or liquids, to meet the specific needs of textile manufacturers.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of reactive dyes and preparations include organic compounds, chemical reagents, and specialized production equipment. Manufacturers in this industry rely on a steady supply of raw materials, such as aromatic compounds, halogenated compounds, and various other organic chemicals. Additionally, the production process requires specialized machinery, such as reactors, filtration systems, and drying equipment, to ensure the efficient and consistent manufacture of these essential textile colorants.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 320416 is reactive dyes and preparations based on these dyes. These products are then consumed by the textile industry, where they are used to color a wide range of fabrics, including 520100 Cotton, 540200 Synthetic filaments, and 550300 Artificial staple fibers. The ability of reactive dyes to form a strong, permanent bond with textile fibers makes them a popular choice for coloring a variety of textile products, from apparel to home furnishings.
