About yarn, synthetic; filament, monofilament (less than 67 decitex), polyesters (not high tenacity or textured), not partially oriented, single, untwisted or twisted 50 turns or less per metre, not for retail sale, not sewing thread

HS code 540247 covers a specific type of synthetic yarn and filament, primarily made from polyester. This industry plays a crucial role in the global textile and apparel supply chain, providing essential raw materials for the production of a wide range of fabrics and garments. The demand for this type of yarn is driven by its versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness, making it a popular choice for manufacturers across various industries.

Production process

The production of the yarn and filament covered under HS code 540247 typically involves a multi-step process. First, polyester resin is extruded through spinnerets to form continuous filaments. These filaments are then drawn, cooled, and wound onto bobbins or packages. Depending on the specific requirements, the filaments may undergo additional processing, such as twisting or texturing, to impart desired properties and characteristics.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the goods covered under HS code 540247 include polyester resin, which serves as the primary raw material. Additionally, specialized machinery, such as extruders, spinnerets, and winding equipment, are essential for the manufacturing process. Energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are also necessary to power the production facilities.

Production outputs

The yarn and filament produced under HS code 540247 are primarily used as inputs for the manufacturing of various textile products, including 540761 Woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, containing 85% or more by weight of textured polyester filaments, including monofilament of 67 decitex or more and of a length not exceeding 1 mm, 540769 Woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, containing 85% or more by weight of textured polyester filaments, including monofilament of 67 decitex or more and of a length not exceeding 1 mm, and 540752 Woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, containing 85% or more by weight of textured polyester filaments, including monofilament of 67 decitex or more and of a length not exceeding 1 mm. These fabrics are then used in the production of a wide range of clothing, home textiles, and industrial applications.
