About fabrics, woven; of cotton, unbleached, weighing more than 200g/m2, n.e.c. in chapter 52

HS code 521221 covers a significant segment of the global textile industry, encompassing the production of unbleached cotton fabrics weighing more than 200g/m2. These fabrics are widely used in a variety of applications, from apparel and home furnishings to industrial textiles. As a key component of the broader 52 Cotton fabrics industry, this code plays a crucial role in meeting the global demand for versatile and durable cotton-based textiles.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 521221 typically involves a multi-step process. First, raw cotton fibers are spun into yarn using specialized machinery. The yarn is then woven into an unbleached fabric using power looms. The fabric may undergo additional finishing processes, such as singeing, to remove any surface fibers and create a smooth, uniform appearance.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of fabrics under HS code 521221 are raw cotton fibers, which serve as the main raw material. Additionally, the industry requires specialized weaving machinery, such as power looms, as well as various chemicals and auxiliaries used in the finishing processes. Energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are also essential for powering the production equipment.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 521221 is unbleached cotton fabrics weighing more than 200g/m2. These fabrics are often used as intermediate inputs for the production of a wide range of textile products, including 5208 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, weighing not more than 200 g/m2 and 5209 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing 85% or more by weight of cotton, weighing more than 200 g/m2. Additionally, these fabrics may be consumed by the apparel, home furnishings, and industrial textile industries.
