Overview
This HTS category, 5408.23.19.00, encompasses a specific subset of woven fabrics manufactured from artificial filament yarn. These fabrics are characterized by containing 85 percent or more by weight of artificial filament or strip, and are woven from yarns of different colors. Crucially, these textiles exhibit a particular thread density: the warp threads, counted per centimeter (considering multiple or cabled yarns as single threads), number over 69 but not exceeding 142, while the filling threads range from over 31 to a maximum of 71 per centimeter.
The distinguishing factor for this classification, as opposed to its sibling 5408.23.11.00, lies in the material composition. While both fall under woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn with specified thread counts and coloration from different yarns, this category specifically excludes fabrics made of cuprammonium rayon, which is designated under the sibling category. Therefore, the filament material for fabrics classified here is other than cuprammonium rayon.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. This means that any woven fabric of artificial filament yarn, meeting the 85% by weight filament/strip requirement, woven from yarns of different colors, and possessing the specified warp and filling thread counts per centimeter (warp > 69 to ≤ 142, filling > 31 to ≤ 71), and *not* being of cuprammonium rayon, will be classified under this heading. Examples could include certain types of decorative fabrics, apparel fabrics, or upholstery materials that meet these precise technical specifications.
