About fabrics, woven; dyed, containing less than 85% by weight of artificial staple fibres, mixed mainly or solely with cotton

HS code 551642 covers a specific type of woven fabric that is dyed and contains less than 85% artificial staple fibers, with the remainder being primarily or solely cotton. This fabric is an important component in the textile and apparel industries, as it provides a versatile and cost-effective material for a wide range of clothing and home furnishing products. The production and trade of this fabric play a significant role in the global economy, with many countries relying on its export and import to support their textile manufacturing sectors.

Production process

The production of fabrics covered under HS code 551642 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the cotton and artificial staple fibers are spun into yarns. These yarns are then woven into a fabric using various weaving techniques, such as plain weave, twill, or satin. The woven fabric is then dyed to achieve the desired color, using a range of dyeing methods like batch dyeing, continuous dyeing, or printing. Finally, the dyed fabric may undergo additional finishing processes, such as calendering or sanforizing, to improve its appearance, texture, and durability.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fabrics under HS code 551642 include cotton and artificial staple fibers, such as polyester or rayon. Additionally, the industry relies on various chemicals, dyes, and auxiliary materials for the dyeing and finishing processes. Specialized weaving and dyeing machinery, as well as skilled labor, are also essential inputs for the efficient and high-quality production of these fabrics.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 551642 is the woven, dyed fabric containing less than 85% artificial staple fibers and the remainder being mainly or solely cotton. This fabric is then consumed by various downstream industries, such as the 611000 Apparel, knitted or crocheted and 630000 Textiles, made-up articles; sets; worn clothing and worn textile articles; rags sectors, which use it to manufacture a wide range of clothing, home textiles, and other textile products.
