5702.99.15.00 - Other (369) 🖩

This HTS category, 5702.99.15.00, encompasses a specific type of woven textile floor covering that is not of pile construction and is presented in a "made up" state. The "made up" designation signifies that these items have undergone further processing beyond being simply woven, such as being cut, hemmed, or finished into specific shapes or sizes suitable for immediate use as floor coverings. The term "other textile materials" indicates that while not of pile construction and made up, these floor coverings are not exclusively made of the materials specified in preceding subcategories within the 5702.99.xx.xx structure.

This classification is distinct from its sibling, 5702.99.05.00, which specifically covers woven floor coverings, not of pile construction, made up, and *not* made on a power-driven loom. The key differentiator for 5702.99.15.00 lies in its inclusion of items that *may* have been manufactured on power-driven looms, provided they otherwise meet the criteria of being woven, not of pile construction, made up, and of "other textile materials." This allows for a broader scope within the "made up" category for non-pile woven floor coverings when power-driven loom production is involved.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification is finalized at this level based on the material being of "other textile materials" and meeting all preceding criteria: woven, not tufted or flocked, not of pile construction, and made up. Examples falling under this classification would include woven rugs or mats made from synthetic fibers, blends not predominantly cotton, or other natural fibers beyond those specified in more granular subheadings, that have been finished into ready-to-use floor coverings.
