About fabrics, woven; printed, containing less than 85% by weight of synthetic staple fibres (other than polyesters), mixed mainly or solely with cotton, exceeding 170g/m2

HS code 551449 covers a specific type of woven fabric that is printed and contains less than 85% synthetic staple fibers (excluding polyesters), primarily mixed with cotton. This fabric is commonly used in the textile and apparel industries, as it offers a unique blend of properties that cater to various consumer preferences and market demands. Understanding the production, inputs, and outputs of this fabric classification is crucial for businesses involved in the import, export, and trade of textile materials.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 551449 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the synthetic and cotton fibers are spun into yarns, which are 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 or digital printing. Finally, the printed fabric may undergo additional finishing processes, such as dyeing, calendering, or heat-setting, to enhance its appearance, durability, and performance characteristics.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 551449 include synthetic staple fibers (other than polyesters), cotton fibers, and various chemicals and dyes used in the printing and finishing processes. Additionally, specialized weaving and printing machinery, as well as skilled labor, are essential for the efficient and high-quality production of these fabrics.

Production outputs

Fabrics classified under HS code 551449 are primarily used in the manufacturing of apparel, home textiles, and other textile-based products. These fabrics may be consumed by 611000 Apparel, knitted or crocheted, 620000 Apparel, not knitted or crocheted, and 630000 Other made-up textile articles; sets; worn clothing and worn textile articles; rags industries, among others, depending on the specific design, quality, and end-use requirements.
