Textile wall coverings

HS v2022 Code: 5905

About textile wall coverings

HS code 5905 covers textile wall coverings, which are an important component of the interior design and construction industries. These products play a crucial role in enhancing the aesthetic appeal and functionality of commercial and residential spaces. The textile wall coverings industry is closely tied to the broader textile and construction sectors, contributing to the overall economic activity and employment in these related industries.

Production process

Textile wall coverings are typically produced through weaving, knitting, or printing techniques. Woven wall coverings are created by interlacing warp and weft yarns, while knitted wall coverings are produced by looping yarn into a series of interconnected stitches. Printed wall coverings, on the other hand, involve the application of dyes or pigments onto a textile substrate using various printing methods, such as screen printing or digital printing.

Production inputs

The production of textile wall coverings requires a range of raw materials, including natural and synthetic fibers, such as 5201 Cotton, 5501 Synthetic filament, and 5503 Synthetic staple fibers. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery, such as weaving or knitting machines, as well as printing equipment and finishing processes to ensure the desired quality and appearance of the final products.

Production outputs

Textile wall coverings produced under HS code 5905 are primarily used in the construction and interior design industries, where they are installed on walls to provide both aesthetic and functional benefits. These products may be consumed by other industries, such as 4412 Plywood, veneered panels and similar laminated wood and 4420 Wood marquetry and inlaid wood; caskets and cases for jewelry or cutlery, and similar articles, of wood; statuettes and other ornaments, of wood; wooden articles of furniture not falling in Chapter 94, which may incorporate textile wall coverings into their own products or projects.
