Overview
This HTS category, 5702.92, encompasses woven floor coverings that are not of pile construction and are made up. Crucially, these items are specifically distinguished by their material composition, being made exclusively of man-made textile materials. This designation sets them apart from similar woven floor coverings that are made from wool or fine animal hair (5702.91) or other textile materials such as cotton or linen (5702.99). The "made up" aspect signifies that these floor coverings may have undergone further processing, such as being cut to size, bound, or hemmed, to be ready for use.
Within this classification, the subcategories further refine the classification based on manufacturing method. 5702.92.10.00 specifically covers those floor coverings woven by hand, not on a power-driven loom, highlighting a distinction in production technique that can be a critical factor in customs declarations. The remaining items under 5702.92.90.00, designated as "Other," encompass all other made-up woven floor coverings of man-made textile materials that do not meet the criteria for hand-woven production.
