6005.39.00.10 - Open-work fabrics (229) 🖩

This HTS classification, 6005.39.00.10, specifically covers "open-work fabrics" that are warp knitted, excluding those already classified under headings 6001 to 6004. These fabrics are manufactured using a warp knitting process, which involves creating loops and intermeshing them with yarns running parallel to the fabric's length. The "open-work" characteristic signifies that these fabrics possess a distinct lace-like appearance or structure, featuring intentional holes or gaps within the knitted fabric. This category is specifically for open-work warp knit fabrics composed of synthetic fibers that have been printed.

Within the broader category of "warp knit fabrics of synthetic fibers," this subcategory is distinguished by two key criteria: its open-work construction and the presence of printing. It diverges from other "other" warp knit fabrics of synthetic fibers that may be solid, not open-work, or unprinted. While other sibling categories might cover unprinted open-work warp knit fabrics or solid warp knit fabrics of synthetic fibers, this specific classification applies solely to the printed, open-work variety.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 6005.39.00.10 rests entirely on identifying warp knit fabrics made from synthetic fibers that exhibit an open-work design and have undergone a printing process. Examples would include printed lace-like warp knits used for apparel trims, decorative overlays, or lingerie.
