5702.49.10.20 - Not made on a power-driven loom (369)

This HTS category, 5702.49.10.20, specifically covers woven carpets and other textile floor coverings that are made up, have a pile construction, are made of textile materials other than wool or fine animal hair, and are specifically of cotton. The crucial defining characteristic for this subcategory is that these particular cotton pile floor coverings are *not* made on a power-driven loom, implying they are either handwoven or produced using other non-powered means. This includes finished articles ready for use as floor coverings.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 5702.49.10.80 ("Other"), which would encompass pile floor coverings of cotton made up that *are* manufactured on power-driven looms. The method of production (power-driven versus non-power-driven loom) is the primary differentiator at this level, alongside the material being cotton and the product being a made-up pile floor covering.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 5702.49.10.20 is definitive for cotton pile floor coverings that are made up and not produced on a power-driven loom. Examples could include hand-knotted or hand-tufted cotton rugs and carpets, where the production method clearly deviates from automated, power-driven loom manufacturing.
