Overview
This HTS classification, 6307.90.60.90, encompasses "Other" made-up textile articles that are not otherwise specified within Chapter 63, and which are specifically surgical drapes formed on a base of paper or covered or lined with paper. These items are distinguished by their construction, where a textile material is combined with paper to create a sterile barrier or absorbent surface, typically used in surgical environments to maintain asepsis and manage fluids.
Within the broader category of "Other made up articles, including dress patterns," this specific subheading focuses on surgical drapes. It is important to differentiate these from sibling categories such as 6307.90.60.10, which covers perineal towels. While both may be absorbent textile products, the "perineal towels" classification is for specific absorbent pads used in perineal care, whereas this category is for drapes designed to cover larger surgical areas or equipment.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification hinges on the explicit criteria that the surgical drape is constructed with or upon a paper base or is lined or covered with paper. The purpose of these drapes is to absorb, protect, or drape during medical procedures, and their unique material composition with paper is the defining characteristic for classification under this subheading.
