Description

Overview

Heading 6005 encompasses warp knit fabrics, excluding those specifically addressed in headings 6001 through 6004. This category is broad and includes fabrics produced using a warp knitting technique, which involves interlacing yarns in a zig-zag pattern to create loops. The inclusion of fabrics made on galloon knitting machines signifies that specific types of decorative or specialized warp knits are also categorized here. These fabrics can be constructed from a wide array of fiber types, as indicated by the subcategories.

This heading is distinguished from its siblings in Section XI by its focus on a particular knitting method (warp knitting) and the exclusion of other fabric types. While other headings in Chapter 60 deal with knitted or crocheted fabrics, they may cover weft knitting, pile fabrics, or specific material compositions that are not the primary focus of 6005. For instance, headings 6001 to 6004 address specific types of knitted fabrics that are excluded from this category, ensuring a clear division of goods.

The subcategories under 6005 allow for further refinement based on the material composition of the warp knit fabric. This includes classifications for fabrics made of cotton, synthetic fibers, and artificial fibers, enabling precise duty and trade statistics collection. The "Other" category (6005.90) serves as a catch-all for warp knit fabrics composed of materials not explicitly listed in the preceding subcategories, such as those made from silk, wool, or animal hair, or blends of various fiber types.
