5515.99.90.25 - Printcloth (615)

This classification, 5515.99.90.25, specifically covers "Printcloth" made from synthetic staple fibers. Printcloth, in this context, refers to a plain-weave fabric known for its versatility and suitability for printing with various patterns and designs. It is typically a relatively lightweight fabric, often used in apparel, home furnishings, and craft applications. The term "printcloth" is descriptive of its common end-use and the printing processes it readily accepts.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings, "Poplin or broadcloth" (5515.99.90.15) and "Sheeting" (5515.99.90.20), is crucial. While all fall under "Other woven fabrics of synthetic staple fibers: Other woven fabrics: Other: Other: Other," printcloth is differentiated by its weave structure and typical construction, often being finer than sheeting and less pronounced in its warp and weft yarn counts compared to poplin or broadcloth. Other sibling categories like "Duck" (5515.99.90.35) and those categorized by weave (e.g., satin weave or twill weave) are distinct due to their specific weave patterns and heavier construction.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories. The classification of printcloth is therefore finalized at this level, based on its composition of synthetic staple fibers and its specific fabric characteristics that define it as printcloth, differentiating it from other plain-weave or specialized woven fabrics within Chapter 55. Classification decisions for this code would rely on confirming the material composition and the defining physical characteristics of the fabric itself.
