HS v2022 Code: 551219

About fabrics, woven; of synthetic staple fibres, containing 85% or more by weight of polyester staple fibres, other than unbleached or bleached

HS code 551219 covers woven fabrics made from synthetic staple fibers, primarily polyester. These fabrics are widely used in the textile and apparel industries, as they offer a range of desirable properties such as durability, wrinkle resistance, and easy care. The global trade in these fabrics is significant, with both developed and developing countries participating in the import and export of these materials. This code plays an important role in the broader textile supply chain, connecting raw material producers with manufacturers and retailers.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 551219 typically involves a multi-step process. First, polyester staple fibers are spun into yarns using industrial spinning machines. These yarns are then woven into fabrics using power looms, which can produce a variety of weave patterns and fabric structures. The woven fabrics may undergo additional finishing processes, such as dyeing, printing, or chemical treatments, to impart specific properties or aesthetic qualities.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 551219 include polyester staple fibers, which serve as the primary raw material. Additionally, manufacturers may require various chemicals, dyes, and auxiliary materials for finishing and processing the fabrics. Specialized machinery, such as spinning frames, looms, and finishing equipment, are also essential inputs for this industry. The availability and cost-effectiveness of these raw materials and equipment can significantly impact the competitiveness of producers in this sector.

Production outputs

Fabrics produced under HS code 551219 are primarily used in the manufacture of a wide range of textile products, including clothing, home furnishings, and industrial textiles. These fabrics may be further processed and consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, such as 540741 Fabrics, woven; of synthetic filament yarn, including nylon, other than those of heading 54.02, 540752 Fabrics, woven; dyed, of synthetic filament yarn, including nylon, other than those of heading 54.02, and 540754 Fabrics, woven; of yarn of different colours, of synthetic filament yarn, including nylon, other than those of heading 54.02.
