5208.51.80.90 - Cheesecloth; lawns, voiles or batistes (226)

This HTS classification covers specific types of printed, plain weave cotton fabrics that weigh not more than 100 g/m² and have a yarn numbering of 69 or higher. The "cheesecloth; lawns, voiles or batistes" designation highlights the fine, lightweight nature of these fabrics, often characterized by their open weave or smooth finish. These textiles are typically used in applications where a light, airy fabric is required, such as apparel, home furnishings, and specialized industrial uses.

Within the broader category of printed cotton fabrics weighing not more than 200 g/m², this subcategory is distinguished by its plain weave construction, lighter weight limit of 100 g/m², and the specific yarn numbering. Unlike sibling categories such as "Poplin or broadcloth," which often have a denser weave and different aesthetic qualities, the fabrics classified here are recognized by their sheerer, finer texture.

As this classification represents a leaf node in the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, precise classification relies on meeting all the preceding criteria: the fabric must be of cotton, printed, a plain weave, weigh no more than 100 g/m², and have a yarn numbering of 69 or higher, fitting the description of cheesecloth, lawns, voiles, or batistes.
