About fabrics, woven; of combed wool or combed fine animal hair, containing less than 85% by weight of wool or fine animal hair, mixed mainly or solely with fibres n.e.c. in heading no. 5112
HS code 511290 covers a wide range of woven fabrics made from combed wool or combed fine animal hair, where the wool or fine animal hair content is less than 85% by weight. These fabrics are often blended with other fibers not elsewhere classified in heading 5112. This industry plays a crucial role in the global textile and apparel supply chain, providing essential materials for the production of high-quality clothing, upholstery, and other textile products.
Production process
The production of fabrics under HS code 511290 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the wool or fine animal hair fibers are combed to align and straighten them, improving the fabric's texture and appearance. The combed fibers are then blended with other fibers, such as synthetic or plant-based fibers, and spun into yarns. These yarns are then woven into the final fabric using various weaving techniques, including plain weave, twill, and satin. The fabrics may undergo additional finishing processes, such as dyeing, printing, or calendering, to enhance their appearance and performance characteristics.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 511290 include combed wool or combed fine animal hair, such as cashmere or mohair, as well as other fibers used for blending. Specialized weaving machinery, such as looms, is also a crucial input. Additionally, dyes, chemicals, and other finishing materials may be required, depending on the desired characteristics of the final fabric.
Production outputs
Fabrics produced under HS code 511290 are primarily used in the manufacture of high-quality clothing, such as suits, coats, and dresses.
