Woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn including woven fabrics obtained from materials of heading no. 5404

HS v2022 Code: 5408

About woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn including woven fabrics obtained from materials of heading no. 5404

HS code 5408 covers a diverse range of woven fabrics made from artificial filament yarns, including those derived from materials classified under heading 5404. These fabrics play a crucial role in the global textile and apparel industry, providing versatile and durable materials for a wide array of applications, from clothing and home furnishings to industrial uses. Understanding the production, inputs, and outputs of this industry is essential for businesses involved in the import, export, and trade of these essential textile products.

Production process

The production of woven fabrics under HS code 5408 typically involves a multi-step process. First, artificial filament yarns are produced, often through the extrusion and drawing of synthetic polymers. These yarns are then woven into a variety of fabric structures, using techniques such as plain weaving, twill weaving, or satin weaving, depending on the desired properties and end-use of the fabric. The woven fabrics may undergo additional finishing processes, such as dyeing, printing, or chemical treatment, to impart specific characteristics or aesthetic qualities.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 5408 woven fabrics include artificial filament yarns, which can be made from a range of synthetic polymers, such as polyester, nylon, or rayon. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized weaving machinery, including looms and related equipment, as well as various chemicals and dyes used in the finishing processes. The availability and quality of these raw materials and production resources are crucial factors in determining the competitiveness and output of the HS code 5408 industry.

Production outputs

Woven fabrics classified under HS code 5408 are versatile materials that find applications in a wide range of industries. These fabrics are commonly used in the manufacture of clothing, such as 6204 (Women's or girls' suits, ensembles, jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear)) and 6205 Men's or boys' shirts. They are also used in the production of home textiles, including 6302 Bed linen, table linen, toilet linen and kitchen linen, as well as in industrial applications, such as 5902 Tyre cord fabric of high tenacity yarn of nylon or other polyamides, polyesters or viscose rayon.
