5212.22.60 - Other

This HTS classification, **5212.22.60**, pertains to other woven fabrics of cotton that meet specific weight and processing criteria. These fabrics are distinct from those specifically enumerated elsewhere in Chapter 52. Crucially, they must weigh more than 200 grams per square meter and have undergone a bleaching process. This means the fabric has had its natural color removed, typically through chemical treatment, to achieve a white or lighter hue.

Unlike sibling categories at the same level, such as **5212.22.10** which covers fabrics containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair, this category strictly focuses on cotton-dominant woven fabrics meeting the weight and bleaching requirements. The distinction lies in the fiber composition and the absence of significant wool or fine animal hair content.

The subcategories under **5212.22.60** further refine the classification based on the presence of other materials. **5212.22.60.10** specifically addresses fabrics mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair, indicating a specific blend with these materials. The subsequent "Other" subcategory will then encompass remaining bleached, heavier-than-200 g/m² woven cotton fabrics that do not fall under the specifically defined blends, ensuring a comprehensive classification for these types of textile materials.
