HS v2022 Code: 560313

About nonwovens; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated, of man-made filaments, (weighing more than 70g/m2 but not more than 150g/m2)

HS code 560313 covers a broad range of nonwoven fabrics made from man-made filaments, weighing between 70g/m2 and 150g/m2. These materials play a crucial role in various industries, including textiles, construction, and automotive. They offer a unique combination of durability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness, making them an essential component in the global supply chain.

Production process

Nonwovens under HS code 560313 are typically produced using techniques such as spunbonding, meltblowing, or a combination of the two. In the spunbonding process, continuous filaments are extruded, drawn, and then randomly deposited onto a conveyor belt to form a web. The meltblowing process involves extruding molten polymer through fine nozzles, creating fine fibers that are then collected on a moving belt. These production methods allow for the creation of a wide range of nonwoven fabrics with varying properties and applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of nonwovens under HS code 560313 include man-made filaments, such as polyester, polypropylene, or nylon. Additionally, various chemical additives, such as binders, surfactants, and flame retardants, may be used to impart specific properties to the final product. Specialized machinery, including extruders, spinnerets, and web-forming equipment, are also essential for the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

Nonwovens produced under HS code 560313 have a wide range of applications, including 560311 (Nonwovens; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated, of man-made filaments, (weighing not more than 25g/m2)) for lightweight applications, 560312 (Nonwovens; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated, of man-made filaments, (weighing more than 25g/m2 but not more than 70g/m2)) for medium-weight applications, and 560314 (Nonwovens; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated, of man-made filaments, (weighing more than 150g/m2)) for heavier-duty applications. These nonwovens are commonly used in the production of personal protective equipment, filtration media, insulation materials, and various textile products.
