About fabrics, woven; containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, bleached, plain weave, weighing not more than 100g/m2
HS code 520821 covers a specific type of woven cotton fabric that is widely used in the textile and apparel industries. This lightweight, bleached fabric is characterized by its plain weave structure and high cotton content, making it a versatile and popular choice for a variety of applications, from clothing and home furnishings to industrial textiles. As a key component in the global supply chain, this fabric plays an important role in the broader economy, supporting industries that rely on high-quality, cost-effective textile materials.
Production process
The production of HS code 520821 fabrics typically involves a multi-step process. First, raw cotton fibers are spun into yarn using specialized machinery. The yarns are then woven together on a loom to create the base fabric. After weaving, the fabric undergoes a bleaching process to remove any natural pigments and impurities, resulting in a clean, white material. Finally, the fabric may undergo additional finishing treatments, such as calendering or sizing, to enhance its appearance, texture, and performance characteristics.
Production inputs
The primary input for the production of HS code 520821 fabrics is high-quality cotton fiber. Manufacturers also require access to weaving machines, bleaching chemicals, and other specialized equipment and materials to ensure the consistent quality and performance of the final product. Additionally, a skilled workforce with expertise in textile production techniques is essential for the efficient and effective manufacturing of these fabrics.
