About fabrics, woven; of cotton, printed, weighing not more than 200g/m2, n.e.c. in chapter 52

HS code 521215 covers a significant segment of the global textile industry, encompassing woven cotton fabrics that are printed and weigh no more than 200g/m2. These fabrics are widely used in the production of a variety of textile products, including apparel, home furnishings, and industrial applications. The demand for these fabrics is driven by factors such as changing fashion trends, the growing preference for sustainable and eco-friendly textiles, and the increasing global trade in textile products.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 521215 typically involves a multi-step process. First, cotton fibers are spun into yarn, which is then woven into a base fabric. The fabric is then subjected to a printing process, where designs or patterns are applied using various printing techniques, such as screen printing, digital printing, or rotary printing. The printed fabric may also undergo additional finishing processes, such as dyeing, calendering, or chemical treatment, to enhance its appearance, durability, or other desired properties.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 521215 include raw cotton fibers, dyes and pigments for printing, and various chemicals and auxiliaries used in the finishing processes. Additionally, specialized machinery, such as weaving looms, printing machines, and finishing equipment, are essential for the manufacturing of these fabrics. The availability and quality of these inputs, as well as the technological capabilities of the producers, play a crucial role in determining the overall competitiveness of the industry.

Production outputs

Fabrics produced under HS code 521215 are primarily used in the manufacture of a wide range of textile products, including apparel, home textiles, and industrial textiles.
