5212.21.60.60 - Other (317)

This HTS classification, 5212.21.60.60, encompasses other woven fabrics of cotton that are unbleached, weigh more than 200 grams per square meter, and are not of a sateen weave. These fabrics are characterized by their construction and are typically utilized for more robust applications where a specific weave pattern, such as sateen, is not a defining feature. The "other" designation signifies that these fabrics fall outside the more precisely defined categories at this sub-heading level.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 5212.21.60.50 (Sateens), is the absence of the characteristic sateen weave. Sateen fabrics are known for their smooth, lustrous surface achieved through a specific warp or weft float construction. Fabrics classified under 5212.21.60.60 do not exhibit this particular weave structure, leading to potentially different surface appearances and textural qualities, while still adhering to the cotton composition, weight, and unbleached status criteria.

As this node is a leaf node within the HTS classification structure, there are no further subcategories for this specific classification. Therefore, the practical application of this code relies heavily on confirming that a woven cotton fabric meets all the preceding criteria – being unbleached, exceeding 200 g/m², and not being a sateen weave – and does not fit into any more specific weave description at this level.
