Overview
HTS code 5515 encompasses a broad range of woven fabrics manufactured from synthetic staple fibers, excluding those explicitly detailed in prior headings. This category serves as a catch-all for woven textiles where the primary constituent is short-length synthetic fibers that have been cut or broken down to resemble natural fibers. Examples include fabrics made from polyester, nylon, acrylic, or rayon staple fibers. The key distinguishing feature is that these are *woven* fabrics, meaning they are constructed by interlacing warp and weft yarns, and that the fibers used are *staple* in nature, rather than continuous filaments.
This heading is differentiated from other headings within Chapter 55 and related sections by its focus on woven structures and the specific use of synthetic staple fibers. For instance, it excludes fabrics of continuous synthetic filament (covered elsewhere), non-woven fabrics (Chapter 56), and knitted or crocheted fabrics (Chapter 60). Furthermore, it is distinct from headings covering woven fabrics of natural fibers or of artificial staple fibers, as it specifically targets synthetic origins.
Within HTS 5515, further subdivisions categorize these fabrics based on the specific type of synthetic staple fiber used or by their general composition. Subheadings often differentiate based on the predominant fiber, such as polyester staple fibers, or acrylic and modacrylic staple fibers. Other subcategories may exist for "other" woven fabrics that do not fall under these more specific fiber types, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the diverse range of synthetic staple fiber woven goods. This hierarchical breakdown allows for precise classification based on material composition.
