5408.32.10.00 - Other (624)

This HTS subheading, 5408.32.10.00, classifies woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn that are dyed and mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair, but do not meet the specific percentage threshold for the sibling category. Specifically, this category is for dyed woven fabrics where the wool or fine animal hair content, while present and a primary component for the "mixed" designation, constitutes less than 36 percent by weight of the total fabric. These fabrics are characterized by the combination of artificial filaments, providing characteristics such as drape and sheen, with the warmth, softness, and resilience of wool or fine animal hair.

The key differentiator from its sibling, 5408.32.05, lies solely in the quantitative composition. While both are dyed woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair, 5408.32.05 is reserved for those containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair. Consequently, this subheading captures dyed woven fabrics where the artificial filament yarn is the predominant component by weight, with wool or fine animal hair present in a significant but lesser proportion, thereby influencing the fabric's overall feel and performance properties.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, classification within 5408.32.10.00 is determined by meeting all the preceding criteria: being a woven fabric of artificial filament yarn, dyed, and containing a mixture where wool or fine animal hair is a primary component but represents less than 36 percent of the total weight. Practical examples might include certain types of suiting, dress fabrics, or upholstery where the artificial filament provides the base structure and the wool or fine animal hair adds a desirable textural or thermal element.
