About fabrics, woven; containing less than 85% by weight of cotton, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibres, weighing 200g/m2 or less, dyed, plain weave

HS code 521031 covers a specific type of woven fabric that is widely used in the textile and apparel industries. These fabrics are characterized by their low cotton content, typically less than 85% by weight, and their primary composition of man-made fibers. With a weight of 200g/m2 or less and a plain weave structure, these fabrics are versatile and suitable for a range of applications, from clothing to home furnishings. Understanding the production and trade dynamics of this code is crucial for businesses involved in the global textile supply chain.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 521031 involves a series of well-established textile manufacturing processes. The primary raw materials, which include man-made fibers and a small percentage of cotton, are first spun into yarns. These yarns are then woven into a plain weave fabric structure, using specialized weaving machines. The resulting fabric is then dyed to the desired color, often using advanced dyeing techniques to ensure color fastness and consistency. Finally, the fabric may undergo additional finishing processes, such as calendering or sanforizing, to enhance its appearance and performance characteristics.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 521031 include man-made fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or rayon, as well as a small percentage of cotton. Additionally, the production process requires specialized weaving machinery, dyes, and various finishing chemicals and equipment. The availability and quality of these raw materials and equipment are crucial for manufacturers to meet the demand for these versatile woven fabrics.

Production outputs

Fabrics classified under HS code 521031 are primarily used in the production of clothing, such as shirts, blouses, and dresses. They may also find applications in home textiles, such as curtains, upholstery, and bedding. These fabrics can be further processed and combined with other materials to create a wide range of textile products. Other HS codes that may consume the output of 521031 include 540741 Fabrics, woven, containing 85% or more by weight of filament yarns of nylon or other polyamides and 540752 Fabrics, woven, containing 85% or more by weight of textured polyester filaments.
