Overview
This HTS category, 5603.93.00.90, encompasses "Other" nonwoven fabrics that weigh more than 70 g/m² but not more than 150 g/m². This designation applies to nonwoven materials within this specific weight range that do not fit into the more precisely defined subcategories of nonwovens outlined in heading 5603. These may include materials with unique treatments, constructions, or compositions that fall outside the scope of specific impregnation, coating, or lamination described in sibling categories.
It is important to distinguish this category from its sibling, 5603.93.00.10, which specifically covers nonwovens impregnated, coated, or covered with materials other than rubber, plastics, wood pulp, or glass fibers, and also includes "imitation suede." Therefore, 5603.93.00.90 is for those nonwovens within the 70-150 g/m² weight range that are neither the specifically described coated/impregnated types nor "imitation suede."
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification into this heading requires careful examination of the nonwoven's construction, weight, and any treatments applied. If a nonwoven meets the weight criteria of this heading but does not qualify for a more specific classification within heading 5603, it will be classified here under the "Other" provision. Examples might include certain spunbonded or meltblown fabrics that are essentially unadorned or have undergone very basic processing not detailed in other subheadings.
