Overview
This HTS category, 5407.69.90.60, specifically classifies woven fabrics manufactured from synthetic filament yarn. These fabrics must contain a minimum of 85 percent by weight of polyester filaments and be characterized by a weight exceeding 170 grams per square meter. The "printed" designation indicates that these fabrics have undergone a printing process, adding designs or patterns to their surface. This category encompasses a wide array of decorative and functional textiles where print is a defining characteristic and the fabric is relatively heavy.
The critical distinguishing factor for this classification, compared to its sibling 5407.69.90.10, lies in the fabric's weight. While both are woven polyester filament fabrics, containing 85 percent or more polyester, and are printed, this specific category applies only to those weighing *more than* 170 g/m². This weight threshold is a key physical characteristic used in customs classification to differentiate between lighter and heavier weight fabrics, which can sometimes indicate different end uses or manufacturing processes.
As a leaf node, this category has no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within this code is on the precise fulfillment of the outlined criteria: woven construction, high polyester filament content (85% or more), printing as a finished characteristic, and crucially, a weight exceeding 170 grams per square meter. Examples would include heavier upholstery fabrics, decorative banners, or durable printed outdoor textiles meeting these specifications.
