About fabrics; pile fabrics, including long pile fabrics and terry fabrics, knitted or crocheted

HS code 6001 covers a diverse range of knitted or crocheted fabrics, including pile fabrics, long pile fabrics, and terry fabrics. These materials are widely used in the textile and apparel industries, finding applications in clothing, home furnishings, and industrial products. The global trade in these fabrics is significant, reflecting their importance in meeting the demand for comfortable, durable, and versatile textile solutions across various sectors.

Production process

The production of fabrics under HS code 6001 typically involves knitting or crocheting techniques. Pile fabrics are created by incorporating extra yarns or fibers into the base fabric, which are then cut or looped to form the distinctive raised surface. Long pile fabrics are produced by using longer pile yarns, while terry fabrics are characterized by their absorbent, looped surface. These specialized manufacturing processes allow for the creation of a wide range of textures, weights, and performance characteristics to meet the diverse needs of end-users.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 6001 fabrics include natural and synthetic fibers, such as cotton, wool, polyester, and nylon. Specialized knitting or crocheting machinery, as well as dyeing and finishing equipment, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce capable of operating the specialized equipment and implementing quality control measures.

Production outputs

Fabrics classified under HS code 6001 are primarily used in the production of clothing, including sweaters, robes, and other garments. They are also utilized in the manufacture of home textiles, such as towels, bathrobes, and upholstery. Furthermore, these fabrics may find applications in industrial settings, such as in the production of 5911 Textile products and articles, for technical uses.
