3926.90.56.00 - With textile components in which vegetable fibers predominate by weight over any other textile fiber

This HTS classification, 3926.90.56.00, applies to articles manufactured from plastics that incorporate textile components. Specifically, these goods must contain textile fibers where vegetable fibers, such as cotton, linen, jute, or ramie, constitute the predominant fiber by weight. This category encompasses a wide range of plastic items that are reinforced or otherwise combined with vegetable fiber textiles to enhance their properties or functionality.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 3926.90.57.00, by the specific type of textile fiber that predominates. While both categories deal with plastic articles containing textile components, 3926.90.57.00 is reserved for those where man-made fibers (synthetic or artificial) are the heaviest component. Furthermore, it differs from the residual category 3926.90.59.00, which covers plastic articles with textile components where neither vegetable nor man-made fibers clearly predominate by weight, or where other specific textile fiber mixtures exist.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 3926.90.56.00. Therefore, accurate classification relies on the precise determination of the predominant textile fiber by weight within the combined plastic and textile article. Examples of goods that might fall into this classification include certain types of conveyor belts, reinforcing fabrics embedded in plastic sheeting, or specialized industrial components where the strength and absorbency of vegetable fibers are integral to the plastic article's performance.
