5514.30.39.20 - Jacquard weave (220)

This HTS classification, 5514.30.39.20, specifically covers woven fabrics that are not blue denim but are produced using a jacquard weave. These fabrics are characterized by containing less than 85% by weight of synthetic staple fibers, mixed mainly or solely with cotton. The overall weight of these textiles must exceed 170 grams per square meter. The key defining characteristic of this subcategory is the presence of a jacquard weave, which creates intricate and often complex patterns woven directly into the fabric.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by the specific weaving technique employed. While 5514.30.39.10 is designated for blue denim, and 5514.30.39.90 encompasses all other woven fabrics not meeting the jacquard specification within this parent group, this category is exclusively for those exhibiting a jacquard weave. The jacquard weave allows for a wide variety of designs, motifs, and textures that are integral to the fabric's structure, differentiating them from simpler weaves or those dyed in distinct colors before weaving.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS system, there are no further subcategories under 5514.30.39.20. Classification at this level is final, meaning goods meeting these specific criteria, including the jacquard weave, the material composition, weight, and exclusion from the blue denim designation, will be classified here. Examples could include upholstery fabrics with elaborate floral or geometric patterns, damask tablecloths, or other decorative textiles produced with this specialized weaving method.
