Cotton Card Fly Waste from Mexico
Cotton card fly waste consists of very short fibres captured from the air during carding operations in textile mills. These fibres are too short for yarn spinning but are suitable for products like flock or specialty papers. As a byproduct of the carding process, it is classified as 'other' cotton waste under tariff item 5202.99.00.
