About cotton yarn (other than sewing thread), put up for retail sale

HS code 5207 covers cotton yarn, excluding sewing thread, that is packaged and prepared for retail sale. This industry plays a crucial role in the global textile and apparel supply chain, providing a vital link between cotton production and the manufacturing of finished textile products. The demand for cotton yarn is driven by the widespread use of cotton fabrics in clothing, home furnishings, and industrial applications, making this industry an important contributor to the broader economy.

Production process

The production of cotton yarn for retail sale typically involves several key steps. First, raw cotton fibers are harvested, cleaned, and processed into yarn through a series of spinning and twisting operations. The yarn is then wound onto bobbins or spools, and finally packaged and labeled for distribution to retailers and consumers.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of cotton yarn under HS code 5207 include raw cotton fibers, spinning machinery, and packaging materials. Cotton is the primary raw material, and its quality, length, and strength are crucial factors in determining the final properties of the yarn. Specialized spinning equipment, such as ring spinning frames and open-end spinning machines, are used to transform the raw cotton into the desired yarn characteristics. Additionally, packaging materials, such as cardboard boxes, plastic bags, and labels, are necessary to prepare the yarn for retail sale.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 5207 is cotton yarn that is packaged and ready for sale to consumers and textile manufacturers. This yarn can be used in a wide range of applications, including the production of 5208 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, weighing not more than 200 g/m², 5209 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, weighing more than 200 g/m², and 5210 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing less than 85% by weight of cotton, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibers, weighing not more than 200 g/m², among others. The availability of high-quality, retail-ready cotton yarn is essential for the continued growth and development of the broader textile and apparel industry.
