Overview
This HTS classification, 5208.11.40.60, specifically covers "Printcloth" woven from cotton. The defining characteristics for this category are that the fabric must contain 85% or more cotton by weight, weigh no more than 200 g/m², and be unbleached. Furthermore, it must be of a plain weave construction and weigh not more than 100 g/m².
Printcloth, as defined here, is a type of unfinished plain weave cotton fabric often used as a base for printing various patterns. It is distinguished from its sibling categories by its specific designation and common trade terminology. While 5208.11.40.20 refers to Poplin or Broadcloth, and 5208.11.40.40 to Sheeting, this classification is reserved for what is commercially recognized and traded as printcloth. Similarly, 5208.11.40.90 encompasses Cheesecloth, which has a much more open weave and distinct textural properties.
As this node represents a leaf category within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Classification into this specific code, 5208.11.40.60, is therefore determined by meeting all the aforementioned criteria for weight, weave, bleaching status, and the specific identification of the fabric as "Printcloth" in the trade.
