Overview
This HTS category, 5211.51.00.30, specifically classifies woven cotton fabrics that are not napped. These fabrics contain less than 85 percent by weight of cotton, with man-made fibers being the primary admixture. Furthermore, they must exceed a weight of 200 grams per square meter. The "printed" designation indicates that the fabric has undergone a printing process to impart a design or pattern. Within the "sheeting" subcategory, these fabrics are typically characterized by their plain weave structure, often used for items such as bed linens or apparel.
The key differentiator for this classification is the absence of napping, which is a surface treatment that raises the fibers to create a soft, fuzzy texture. This distinguishes it directly from its sibling category, 5211.51.00.50, which covers napped versions of the same type of fabric. Both categories fall under the broader umbrella of printed, plain weave sheeting made from cotton mixed with man-made fibers and weighing over 200 g/m².
As a leaf node in the HTS system, there are no further subcategories under 5211.51.00.30. Therefore, classification within this specific code relies solely on meeting all the outlined criteria: being a printed, plain weave sheeting fabric, weighing over 200 g/m², composed of less than 85% cotton (mixed with man-made fibers), and importantly, *not* having been napped.
