About textile products and articles for technical uses; specified in note 7 to this chapter

HS code 5911 covers a diverse range of textile products and articles used for technical applications. These specialized textiles play a crucial role in various industries, from manufacturing and engineering to transportation and healthcare. They are designed to withstand harsh conditions, provide enhanced performance, and serve specialized functions that go beyond the typical uses of everyday textiles.

Production process

The production of HS code 5911 items often involves advanced textile manufacturing techniques. This may include weaving, knitting, or nonwoven processes, depending on the specific product. Many of these textiles are engineered to have unique properties, such as high tensile strength, heat resistance, or chemical resistance, through the use of specialized fibers, coatings, or finishing treatments.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 5911 items include a variety of textile fibers, such as 5402 synthetic filament yarn, 5504 artificial staple fibers, and 5603 nonwovens. Specialized machinery, such as weaving or knitting equipment, is also essential for the manufacturing process. Depending on the specific product, additional inputs like coatings, adhesives, or reinforcing materials may be utilized to enhance the technical performance of the textile.

Production outputs

HS code 5911 covers a wide range of textile products and articles used for technical applications. These include 5911 textile fabrics, felt and felt-lined woven fabrics, coated, covered or laminated with rubber, leather or other material, of a kind used for card clothing, and similar fabrics of a kind used for other technical purposes, 5911 bolting cloth, whether or not made up, and 5911 straining cloth of a kind used in oil-presses or the like, including that of human hair. The outputs of this industry are often consumed by other industries, such as 8421 machinery for filtering or purifying liquids or gases, 8479 machines and mechanical appliances having individual functions, not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter, and 8708 parts and accessories of motor vehicles.
