5811.00.20.00 - Of cotton (229)

This HTS category, 5811.00.20.00, specifically covers quilted textile products in the piece that are primarily composed of cotton. These products are manufactured by assembling one or more layers of textile materials with padding through stitching or other methods. The key defining characteristic is the construction technique, which creates a distinct quilted structure, and the primary fiber content, which must be cotton. These are distinct from embroidery, which is classified under heading 5810.

This classification is distinguished from its siblings based on the material composition. For instance, 5811.00.10.00 pertains to similar quilted textile products made from wool or fine animal hair, while 5811.00.30.00 applies to those constructed from man-made fibers. Furthermore, 5811.00.40.00 encompasses quilted products made from any other textile materials not specified in the preceding subheadings. Therefore, the crucial differentiator for this particular category is the explicit presence of cotton as the principal textile component.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. All qualifying quilted textile products composed of cotton, assembled with padding by stitching or otherwise, and not classifiable as embroidery, will fall under this specific HTS code. Examples include quilted cotton fabric sold by the yard for upholstery or apparel, or pre-cut quilted cotton panels intended for crafting. The focus remains on the combination of the quilting construction and the cotton fiber content.
